Old man winter decided to show its chilly face this morning and it must have affected all the young guns to stay home in their warm fart sacks instead of working out with the over 50 crowd at the VET today.  YHC was hoping for some younger men to join because the workout was designed as a Team exercise but it wasn’t to be.  As the PAX started to loosen up I made the disclaimer not to hurt yourself and explained the trouble that lie ahead with only 3  men over the age of 50 and YHC was pleasantly surprised when Big League Chew said let’s do it, so off we went.

The Warm Up

Mosey over to playing fields for a quick warm up of:

• 20 SSH
• 5 Burpees
• 20 Imperial Walkers
• 5 Burpees
• 10 slow count merkins
• 10 mountain climbers
• 5 Burpees
• We were still a little cold so we ran to the other end of the field and did 5 more Burpees

The Thang

While one PAX ran the length of the field and back (200 yds), the other members had to complete the following combined totals of:

• 200 Merkins
• 300 WWII Sit Ups
• 400 Squats
• 300 LBC’s
• 200 Merkins
• As many Burpees as possible while each PAX ran the 200 yds.

With still some time left the QIC decided to reward the PAX by calling an audible to an early coffateria and I believe all were glad.  As we slow mosey’d back to the parking lot we ran into Tough Skins who had been searching the woods looking for us.  I think after running several miles with Gremlin, then witnessing the beat down going on the field, Tough Skins was wise by searching in the opposite direction.  Good to see Gremlin at Jimmy’s.

All had fun!
