Overcast, damp, 40 F with a slight breeze. As Jimmy Buffet noted – impossible to pick the right gear for.

THE THANG – Stolen from last year for that Super Bowl (actually, so nice I did it twice for a downrange workout in 2019). Figured it’s only once per year, so why not give it another spin…

• Bear Crawl to the “10” (YHC quickly learned that the field was unmarked) – 5 Burpees and run back to the goal line
• Bear Crawl to the 20: 5 Burpees and 10 Merkins and run back the goal line
• Bear Crawl to the 30: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, and 15 CDD and run back the goal line
• Bear Crawl to the 40: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC and run back the goal line
• Bear Crawl to the 50: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC, 25 Squats and and run back the goal line.
• Lunge Walk to the other 40: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC, 25 Squats, 30 Mason Twists and run back the goal line.
• Lunge Walk to the other 30: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC, 25 Squats, 30 Mason Twists, 35 Mountain Climbers and run back the goal line.
• Quadraphilia to the other 20: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC, 25 Squats, 30 Mason Twists, 35 Mountain Climbers, 40 Pretzel Crunches (20x each side) and run back the goal line.
• Quadraphilia from one goal line to the other: 5 Burpees, 10 Merkins, 15 CDD, 20 LBC, 25 Squats, 30 Mason Twists, 35 Mountain Climbers, 40 Pretzel Crunches (20x each side) and 50 Flutter Kicks (HS couldn’t deal with 45x)

Why did we skip the other 10? Well, the mumblechatter was strong among the HIM on the field, but others decided to modify. YHC decided to employ a team building activity that would get us all in the mud: Tunnel of Love.

Run back for CO’T. Arrived at 0617.

MOLESKIN:

• In spite of refinements, this workout is tight to fit in the 45 minute timeframe.
• The 800mg of Ibuprofen was not kicking in until mid-workout. The run to the track was ROUGH for YHC and the lunges were modified. May have to put myself on IR next week…still not giving up on active recovery.
• Always a privilege to lead you guys.
