Labor Day Labor at the Marsh

Date:09/04/17
QIC:Steve
PAX:Carpool, Captain Sparkles, Grundy, Joker (FNG), Shooter, Steve (QIC), and Whip (FNG)

It was kinda a rough morning for YHC.  The wine was flowing last night and, as early as I cut myself off, it wasn’t nearly early enough.  But the sight of two FNGs and our usual gang of men helped bring YHC into focus (albeit, after a very fumbled disclaimer and some pretty shoddy counting).

Warm Up: Good mornings, IW’s, High Knees, Butt Kicks, and Windmills, all 20x IC

The Thang:

Hit the basketball court first for a few rounds of suicides.  Each round interspersed with peter parkers, plank jacks, parker peters, and merkins.  T-Claps to Captain Sparkles for showing up early and sweeping the court.  YHC threw in one round of a full court bear crawl (bunny hops on the way back) just to take advantage of that newly cleaned floor.

Over to the monkey bars for a few rounds of Knees-to-Chest, 15x IC.  Back to the benches for Bulgarian Split Squats, right leg 15x IC (I know, I know, it’s getting old…).  Back to Knees-to-Chest.  Left leg Split Squat.  10x Pull Ups OYO.  15x Box Jumps OYO (bad idea, by the way, on a metal bench in a residential neighborhood).

Over to the swing sets for a set of 11’s in the pitch black:  Australian Pull ups to Sister MK’s.  And then back to the court for some:

Mary: Jane Fonda’s, Quick Pulses, Heel to Knees, each leg 15x IC.  Flutter Kicks, 35x IC.  Hello Dollies 20x IC.

Finished it off with AMRAP Merkins 1 minute.  Everyone knows how many merkins they can do in a minute before the beatdown, we wanted to find out the answer after the beatdown.  (Turns out it’s roughly the same for beasts like Grundy and Captain Sparkles.)

Welcome to the gang Joker and Whip (Shooter 2.0), great to have you guys in the group.  Hope to see a lot more of Whip in the future, and Joker, you gotta look up our brethren on the southshore!

Thanks guys, I needed to be out there this morning.  Always great to lead you men.
