The Thang

Count off 1’s and 2’s.
1’s start with a Spartan – sprint 100 yards, do 10 merkins, walk back. Rinse and repeat.
2’s start with 100’s around the world. Mosey to first corner of field, do 100 SSH. Mosey to next corner, 100 flutter kicks. Next corner, 100 air curls, final corner, 100 plank jacks.

YHC was in the 1 group. Group 1 successfully completed at least 4 rounds, possibly 5 of the Spartan before group 2 finished their 100’s. Flapjack.

The 100’s were not terribly difficult, and YHC particularly enjoyed the mumblechatter surrounding air curls. Definitely bringing those back.

YHC thinks group 2 was only able to complete 3 rounds of Spartan, but is unsure. Consideration was given to complete one round of Spartan together as a full PAX but YHC’s sprinting ability had been severely diminished after 100 plank jacks. To the ground of play we go.

Elevens doing dips and pull-ups. YHC had in mind to use the picnic tables for dips but most PAX ended up just using the playground for both. Shout out to GaDgEt for some form help with YHC. Pull-ups shall be conquered one day.

Mosey back to flag. Groans of disappointment as YHC fired up the bluetooth speaker. Sally was paying us a visit. YHC gave the option of either doing squats or merkins for the song depending on how one was feeling. Surprisingly, several PAX chose merkins. Not surprisingly, this did not last long.

***Memory Break***
One day long, long ago, YHC met at Streak’s house for a beat down. The only other person there was Swedish Ham. After a typically brutal workout, we were instructed to do merkins with Sally. This was YHC’s first introduction to Sally. And this was probably YHC’s 4th or 5th workout. Ever. Needless to say, YHC found it impossible to even do 30 seconds of the song with merkins. Then and there, YHC vowed to only do squats for Sally. Kudos to the brave men who chose poorly.
***Memory Break Over***

Sally is over. 5 minutes left for some Mary. Sloppy Joe hit us with some BBSU. Wheels got us with Freddy Mercury’s. Bear Arse hit us with some American Hammers. Finish it off with some ole’ fashioned LBC’s and call it a day. Well done gentlemen.
