Pre Thang: After having shoulders and arms blown up at WPM and The Mothership, YHC decided to focus on the legs this fine morning. The plan was almost thwarted when the M needed a ride to the airport at 04:30 this morning—since the actual departure was 04:55ish… Thanks to RY for responding to my last minute text and getting things started before I rolled in hot a few minutes late.
The Thang: Mosey toward the club house then over to the bollards at oak alley. Lunge to the first light, High Knees to the next–alternating until we reached the track. Time to put some running back into the skinny w/ Fartleks. That’s Swedish for speed play, not Sea Man’s morning call…
So, OYO, we jogged toward St. Charles to the first light and sprinted to the next–continuing the cycle until we reached the bridge midway through the park. As the pax arrived we did squats until the six was there. More fartleks to the fountain, where we did the squat and wait for the pax.
Next we partnered up at the fountain. One partner ran the square between the track and the avenue while the other did the designated exercise at the benches(Left Leg Step Up, LBC, Right Leg Step Up), then flip flopped until all exercises were complete at which point we did the squat and wait.
More fartleks followed as we made our way to the old golf club house green for some Mary: V-Ups, Russian Twist, Dolly, Freddie, Flutter Kicks x 15 IC.
Indian run back to the virtual flag and circle up for Low Slow Squats x 15 and a brief plank-o-rama.
COT w/ Shout out by YHC
T-Claps to the pax for keeping it together for a great run workout!(Approx. 2.5 miles)
