21 PAX braved the foggy Mandeville Lakefront for the running of the H8! After 20 SSHs IC and a short mosey down the Lakefront, the PAX pumped themselves up for a 45 minute DownPAINment on the weekend. It looked like this:
First round of one burpee (with eight hand release Merkins inside it), followed by a second burpee (with seven hand release Merkins inside it), then a third burpee (with six hand release Merkins inside it)…all the way down to one burpee (with one hand release Merkin inside it)…bear crawl for 35 yards, round trip run for .4 miles, bear crawl for 35 yards back to the starting point to complete the first round.
Second round starts with one burpee (with seven hand release Merkins inside it)…descending to one last burpee (with one hand release Merkin insdie it)…bear crawl, run, and bear crawl back to the starting point.
AMRAP in 45 minutes with an objective to hit 7 rounds.
The Northshore PAX definitely is growing in fitness as an impressive number of men completed 7 rounds and some men completed even more. Not bad considering 7 rounds translated into 36 burpees (with 120 hand release Merkins inside them), 490 yards of bear crawls, and 2.8 miles of running.
Slow mosey back to the shovel flag where Speedy Gonzales prayed us out after the countorama and nameorama. Then it was off to the coffeeteria.
Thanks for letting me lead, guys. It’s great to see everyone getting better.
