It was early, windy, and chilly, so the warm-up was a little longer than normal.

· Capri lap – we did about 5 laps in the parking lot.

· Mosey – ran to parking lot on other side of Olympia Stadium.

· SSH – 25x IC

· Bobby Hurley – 15x IC.

· Al Gores – 10x IC

· Merkins -10x IC

· Burpees – 7x on own.

The Thang:

Due to the Oscars, we did a little movie theme:

1. Lt. Dans – I called these Aiken Legs, but a better name is Lt Dans (from Forrest Gump), cause afterwards we all felt like “we aint got no legs.” We stood on one end of parking lot and lunged to the median. Then did 10 squats. Lunged back to starting end and did 15 more squats. Went back one more time for 20 squats. These were painful, and pretty sure someone cussed at me.

2. Speed Burps – Named after the movie Speed. While the movie had a bus, Keanu Reeves, and a bomb, we didn’t. So, instead, we did 10 burpees at each speed bump as we mosey’d back to flag. I took a Christopher Columbus route (all over the map) to make sure we hit up all the bumps.

3. Col. Trautman – Named after the fella from Rambo. We partnered up. One did freak nasty’s AMRAP while other partner ran to monkey bars and did 5 pull-ups. We did this 4 times. And as Col Trautman said, “It was a bad time for everyone, Rambo. It’s all in the past now.”

4. Catch Me If You Can — We kept the same partners. One partner took off running backwards while the other partner did 10 merkins. After 10 merkins, that partner sprinted to catch his partner. Then swap. We went from parking lot to driveway, which we could see for the first time thanks to the sun rise. We did this 4 times. Wheezing and slouching were at an all-time high.

Mary:

We were running late for Mary’s. But we did it. Everyone led their favorite Mary exercise.

· Fastball – LBCs – 10x

· Rocket – Double Legged Mt Climbers – 10x

· Dagwood – Jane Fondas (Rt) – 10x

· Shangeuxs – Jane Fondas (Lt) – 10x

· Worms – Oooh Marys – 10x
