7 PAX gathered for a Blowout Beatdown with temperatures somewhere near 20 degrees.  Apparently there is a temperature threshold for being able to comfortably do a lot of merkins and workouts with boulders (pebbles for Meola) as I heard a lot of complaining about cold and painful fingers.  I may or may not have complained as well…hence the title and picture. T-Claps to 2Step and YHC for pre-running. Seriously great effort by all who posted.

Warmarama:

• SSH x 25
• IST x 20
• Mountain Climbers x 15

Mosey to stop sign at entrance to Davis Lake clubhouse.

The Thang:

Partner Up:                                                                                                                                 Partners split and run in the opposite direction of the 1/4-Mile loop surrounding the Davis Lake Clubhouse.  When you and your partner cross (twice per lap), perform merkins before continuing around. We completed a sequence of 45, 35, 25,10, and 5 Merkins.

Mosey to Playground

Merkins and Dips Reverse Pyramid                                                                                                 Partner 1 completes 10 Merkins while Partner 2 completes 10 Dips.                                             Rinse and Repeat all the way to 1 Merkin and 1 Dip.

Grab a boulder from the Riprap and Mosey to the parking lot by the dumpster. Partner 1 serves as the timer by sprinting to the stop sign and back (approx. 1/4-Mile) while Partner 2 conducts the following AMRAP exercises with boulders (pebble for Meola):

• AMRAP Curls
• AMRAP Tricep Extension
• AMRAP Squat Presses

Circle up at the shuttle flag for Mary:

• Freddie Mercury x 25
• Low Flutter x 25
• Reverse Crunch x 20
• Homer to Marge
• Merkins until 6:15AM (We finished with close to 200 Total Merkins for the workout)

Thanks for posting and letting me lead. Blowout out.
