The teachable moment…Sharknado Returns!
All All MECA BackblastsJanuary 26th, 2017
YHC had been keeping an eye on the Q signup list and knew that Wednesday was still open. YHC had been tempted to just fill the void but was even more tempted to follow through on the threat that any unfilled Q signups would result in Sharknado as the default workout. When I rolled into the parking lot right at 5:30 and saw Sourdough lead the Pax on a warm up mosey I was proud someone stepped up yet kinda disappointed that a teaching moment had passed. However, after YHC caught up with the group and Sourdough had led everyone through the opening warmups, Sourdough uttered words he would instantly regret…”Hey Pharaoh, you got something in mind for today because that’s all I got?” “Absolutely YHC replied with enthusiasm and instantly began a brisk mosey to get the official ‘cardboard Sharknado Exercise list’ from the back of his truck!!!
Quick instructions to the Pax and off we went.
1/8 mi run – 15 Burpees
1/8 mi run – 20 Diamond Merkins
1/8 mi run – 20 WWII situps
1/8 mi run – 20 Merkins
1/8 mi run – 20 Scorpion Dry Docks
Repeato until time is called.
Overheard during Sharknado:
A newer Pax calling out to his FNG friend:
New Pax: Hey how are you doing?
FNG: If you were closer I would punch you in the face!!!!
Gotta love Sharknado
5 full Circuits yields a 5K with 475 reps!

@Pax – way to push through a classic “You vs You” workout! We have several newer Pax and this is a good measure of where you stand with your conditioning. You will see this workout again and you will be amazed at your progress!
@FNG Michael – good job but you might want to reconsider who you call a friend #JustSaying
I may have overheard more than once from Sourdough ..”I hate Sharknado!”
