Warm-up

SSH x 20 (I could tell Frac was disappointed), Imperial Walkers x 20, Windmills x 15, then some self-love on your own while YHC gave the instructions to…

The Thang

Partner up for

Partners split reps for exercises however they want for 50 cumulative, then run the 400 meters together.  Complete as many rounds as possible in the 40 minutes.

NMM

  • First time I’ve seen Mahatma and T-Shift since the bike accident last week.  Glad to see them both.
  • Rocket works at Lockhead Martin and builds cool space vehicles.  I’m pretty jealous.  He walked away with a pretty good name, mainly because we want him to like us and post at the Gnarly Nutria.
  • I’ve never seen Fracsac run so hard.  He was partnered with Triple Shift and I think he was worried that Triple was going to run over him.
  • You would think I would be faster at burpees.  After all, the man behind the curtain running the @f3nation twitter feed posted a video of my perfect barefoot burpee form as a lesson for all.  Yet, I could not keep up with Mahatma.
  • Abacus continues to stand out among the Pax with his understanding of the RED Friday dress code.
  • Notre Dame should hire Walleye as a recruiter.  Show up to Audubon Park at 2100 hours on July 18th and you will see what I mean.
