MineShaft Alumni Tour
All The Mineshaft BackblastsMarch 24th, 2018

10 of us escaped the Saturday morning fartsack to take a tour of YHC’s Alma Mater. Astro Van and Caravan 2.1B got a pre-run in beforehand. Full disclaimer given since we had some newer guys and a Kotter with us. The blurry map below outlines our path. Here are the deets:
- Mosey to pavilion area outside Barnhardt Student Activity Center.
- SSH, IST, CP.
- Indian Run to Friday building (last man does 5 Merkins before running to front), then slow mosey to tables outside McEniry (where YHC had most of his biology classes and conducted secret lab experiments in the dungeon underneath).
- Jump-ups/Step-ups, Irkins, Derkins x10. Repeato.
- Plank walk up rails outside Fretwell. People’s chair while waiting. Plank walk back down since Chicken Coop enjoyed it so much.
- Mosey behind Friday and gather around the self-made man outside Cato Hall.
- 10 Burpees
- Bear Crawl Indian Run around the sculpture.
- Mosey toward Storrs college of architecture, running up and down the large stairs as we passed them by.
- Stop off behind Robinson Hall.
- Muscle-ups x10. Repeato.
- Circle up by the pond next to Robinson.
- Jump-ups, Irkins, Dirkins x10.
- Mosey around Rowe to the bottom of the Barnard stairs. Partner up.
- P1 does plank jacks while P2 runs the stairs. Switch.
- P1 does jump/air squats while P2 runs the stairs. Switch.
- Mosey behind Reese where YHC spotted some sandbags perfect for a few exercises.
- Curls x10
- Triceps Extensions x10
- There would’ve been more, but it was at this point that Caravan decided to simultaneousl vandalize school property and pull a Refusnik by spilling 90% of his bag’s contents onto the ground. So the last exercise was a team-based cleanup project.
- Mosey around Cone to the parking deck entrance ramp.
- AYG up the ramp, across to the stairs, down the stairs, all the way back to the shovel flags.
- MARY.
- Crunchy Frog, Iron Cross, Box Cutters, Low Flutters, Low Dolly, Rosalita, Plank.
Announcements and Moleskin:
- Comanche 1-year anniversary next Tuesday.
- Davis Lake F3 Dads next Saturday.
- Whetstone sign-ups still going strong. Jump in!
- Official to F3 for “Drawstring” who earned his name last week by almost losing his shorts!
- Great to see Ted Talk make his first MineShaft appearance. Look up Charles Hunt Ted Talk on YouTube to be inspired!
- Great to have Desperado make it back out after a 2-year hiatus. Keep the momentum going brother!

Good work today guys!
Enjoyed the tour of the campus -Man Down! It was good to see some of the older buildings as a nice contrast with all of the recent growth!
