December 8th, 2016 By Frodo

20 PAX woke up and showed up to HCES. Some were aware that Frodo was Qing, others were surprised and others were probably saying, “Who’s the new guy? Never seen him at a bootcamp before.” After the disclaimer was given we were off at a mosey pace to the basketball hoop parking lot. We completed a short warmup (a very short warmup) and got right down to business. Why waste time with a long warmup when there is work to do? Besides, it wasn’t too cold and I knew we would want to save our energy for the main event.

The Thang:

Line up with the small tree near the big rock at one end of the parking lot. (The other end of the parking lot was the last basketball hoop.)

The Moleskin:

• I pulled into the parking lot at 5:25 and there were 3 others there. Where is everyone?!?! Somehow, we launched with 17-18 and then 2-3 joined us shortly after.
• To be transparent, I stole this workout from a friend of mine. I missed it when he led it and have wanted to lead it ever since. Today was that lucky day. You’re welcome.
• Shazam is the tallest duck I’ve ever scene.
• Alcatraz apparently likes big ducks. It’s always nice to hear the baptist preacher rewrite “I like big butts” and sing it during a workout.
• I was very thankful Dirty Martini posted. When it comes to partner carries, it is nice to have someone remotely my size to partner with.
• It was great to see Sandman back out and at this crazy workout thing again.
• Hugo does burpees really fast…or can’t count. He was done with his 20 burpees and had finished the sprint before anyone else was done with their burpees.
