PAX: , , ,

PAX:  @Martini, @Norm, @Finkle, @K I T T Y L I T T R
Warm Up: Mosey around the park track, in cadence SSH, Good Mornings, Daisy Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, tricep/shoulder stretches
The Workout: We went down to the ball park and did 5 rounds of singles, doubles, and triples.  Each Pax took turns being the batter and calling out single, double, or triple then pulled randomly that amount of exercises out of the hat.  If they called a double and drew diamond merkins and squats, then the batter would run, crab walked, bear crawled or lunge walked around the bases twice  and the other players were left at home plate doing diamond merkins for the first lap around the bases and then squats for the second time around.  We did 5 rounds of this and that took us to the end of Mary.

Batter Up!  – It was a glorious morning for some time out on the ball field.  YHC had 16 wonderful exercises all lined up for business on cards in a hat.  Each batter would draw an exercise out of the hat for a single.  The PAX had to sprint the bases/crab walk/lunge walk/bear crawl while other PAX were at home plate doing the exercise.  Once all exercises were done we put the cards back in the hat and did a double with the batter now drawing 2 cards and doing the exercises.  Batter now had to go around the bases 2 times and PAX did one exercise per each lap around bases.  We were gonna do triples but ran out of time.  NUTS!
