Chutes and Ladders
All Afton BackblastsOctober 7th, 2023
AO: f3afton
Q: Geppetto
PAX: Zacchaeus, hokie_pokie, Ringo, Shooter, Geppetto, hop_hunter, Opie, Spaz, Phidippedes, @royal flush, @rainbow warrior
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
WARMUP: SSH, IST, penny pickers, arm circles, swan dive stretch, mosey around the McGill campus.
THE THANG: YHC was delighted to have such an enthusiastic and willing group that f pax to play a really swell game. Chutes and Ladders was actually Mt Afton and parking lot stripes. Started with lunges while a courageous @shooter ventured down the mount. YHC had thoughtfully placed a bucket of playing “cards” at the bottom of Mt Afton, and the pax took turns running down to get the next exercise, which included favorites like; Carolina dry docks, le plank, SSH, flutter kicks, bear hold, plank jacks, mountain climbers, freddy mercs, merken jacks, Bonnie blairs, 4x4s, LBCs, and WW2s. Each trip down and up gave us several minutes for each of the really super fun exercises the pax kept retrieving from the bottom of the hill. Nearly got through all 19 and YHC decided to refill the bucket. You’re welcome. As promised, we took a break and executed a perfectly-timed Indian run around the McGill perimeter, with the last man doing 2 yurpees and then running to catch up. Once back at the ladder, we resumed our game. Upon collecting the bucket of cards, YHC noticed that the “burpee” card had somehow made its way underneath the bucket. An investigation is underway.
MARY: reverse plank, reverse pickle-pounders, homer to marge with a box-cutter add-in.
