Introduction
Taking advantage of the Grove’s top notch facilities, YHC decided to dust off an old high school track workout to build camaraderie with a series of relay races. The forecast called for 100% chance of rain, but that wasn’t going to stop the races.
Warm-O-Rama
First a mosey around the track followed by:
SSH
Hairy Rockettes
Tumbleweeds
Quads
Runners stretch
The Thang
The group was paired in to 5 teams of 2. The first race was a 4×400 meter relay with each pax running 2 legs of the race.
Pax #1 did standing knee raises while Pax #2 ran 400 meters. After sloppy baton handoffs Pax #2 did standing knee raises while Pax #1 ran 400 meters. Rinse and repeat for legs 3 and 4 of the race. After the race:
1st place was rewarded with 10 burpees
2nd place team 15 burpees
3rd place team 20 burpees
4th place team 25 burpees
5th place team 30 burpees
The teams were reset for the second 4×400 meter relay. The pax did plank punches while waiting on the runners and the rewards were the same.
The 3rd and 4th races were shortened to 4×100 meter relays on the field, 2 legs per pax and the exercise was BBSU.
Finally a mosey back to the flag for mary.
Circle of Trust
Prayers for Drafty’s daughter, Snowflake’s wife, and Mr. Pink’s collarbone and recovery. YHC asked for each pax to tell the group what they are thankful for. YHC was in a rut before F3 and is thankful for this group of men for helping motivate and inspire him.
Naked Man Moleskin
YHC is especially thankful for Detour’s help leading the workout and pushing everyone with max effort.
