Tulips at the Renni – from Fracsac

YHC thought he might be sore following all the miles at our successful City Pork, but the Renni was calling!

With the Tulips in bloom, this was the ideal opportunity to share some fun facts about these highly sought after perennials.
Warmup was typical stuff, like SSH, AV, GG, and AC. Threw some IW in too.

Mosey to the Tulips. 
Fun fact, tulips only bloom for 3 to 7 days, so we did 3 minutes of embrace the suck:
7 SSH, 7 Merkins and 7 jump squats (AMRAP)

Start a mosey to the Foundry
If you ever run out of onions, use a turnip bulb. It’s edible. That was a very useless fact….
10 low slow squats IC

Mosey all the way to the Foundry. Next trivia question. Where do Tulips come from geographically? Tulips come from Central Asia (not Holland) and the word comes from the Turkish word for “turban.” I guess the tulip looks like a turban. The pax guessed Holland so 10 burpees IC.

March ISI – get ready for the Murph. 10 seconds 90 degrees flex hang and 20 seconds off. 6 rounds.

Stations. Before starting YHC asked how many petals on a Tulip?
After the stations pax guessed incorrectly.

How many petals on a Tulip? There are 3. It looks like 6 because the sepals are very similar to the petals. 10 burpees IC

Mosey to the back of the museum. Sunday mornings x 3.


Fun fact. If you ever need color in your dish, use tulip petals. They’re edible.

One more trivia question.

What’s the only color of the rainbow that does not truly exist in Tulips? Wrong again.

10 burpees IC

Blue does not exist in Tulips.

Mosey back to the flag
