Get WRECKED

/in /by

7 Pax answered YHC’s call to get WRECKED at Purple Cobra today. I don’t get out to this site very often as I have been taking Tuesdays off from running, but always good to mix it up and see some faces I don’t get to see very often.

Warm Up:

Slaughter Starter – 20x burpees OYO

SSH x20 IC

Daisy Picker x10 IC

Good Morning x5 on my up/down

Sir Fazio Arm Circles x10 forward/backward

Goofball x20 IC
The Workout:

Mosey to “that hill”

WRECKED:

Walmart Burpees (that’s a burpee with a roll onto your back at the start – get it, rollback?)

Rampage – Bear crawl up the hill, 20x diamond merkins, crawl bear back down, 20x squats

El Capitan – lung walk up the hill, standard merkin every lung

Killer Bees – bear crawl up the hill, broad jump back w/3x burpees for every 5x broad jumps

Good morning x10 IC

Mosey to the track

Daisy picker x10 IC

Warm up lap

The Workout:

Cruise Intervals (again – repeat of a few weeks back) courtesy of coach Jack Daniels. Target was 8×1,000m intervals at ~10k pace with 200m recovery. Pax were encouraged to start with a pace that was slightly slower than 10k pace and work it down over the 8 intervals.

This time YHC made sure the warm up didn’t drag on so we had 3 pax finish all 8 repeats (and one honorable mention for 7 + a deposit).

Mary:

Mosey back to the flag

Long Ass Run on the American Tobacco Trail on March 27th. Trying to secure some 2nd F option(s) – worst case we’ll have coffee in a parking deck. 22, 15, 8, and out and back running options + a rucking option.

Lipstick and YHC (can you t-claps yourself?) for being on time this week

McNugget for getting out there despite injury restrictions – always good to see you bro

Skidmark and Cupid for getting after it while dealing with the side effects of the jab.

Red Chair for having our back as always.

Solid 2nd F today – always a highlight of my day.

Prayer:

COVID. Those being vaccinated.
Fumunga’s co-worker battling prostate cancer.

Always a priviledge to lead men. We’ll do this same workout one more time before Wrightsville – the hope is those training can see their improvement over time.
