Don’t Be Skeered

AO: Big Creek

When: 2025-10-08

QIC: Ma Bell

PAX (6): DirtyMO, Flambeaux, Kokomo, Ma Bell, Simple Jack, Soul Glo

Preamble:

YHC sent out the preblast the day before just to get the PAX's minds right. Little did I know it would skeer so many PAX away. Sad. But the idea was keep the PAX constantly moving and giving maximum effort. There was some lollygagging but all got better in some way

Warm-O-Rama:

Run over to the parking lot at the bottom of the lower sokker field near the rec center (I think that's what it is.)
  • Bunny hops while we wait for everyone to get there and circle up
  • Simple (Jumping) Jacks - 37 In Cadence in honor of SJ's birthday
  • Hillbillies
  • Lunges

The Thang:

Thang 1 Ma Bell Mucho Chesto Merkin Mile (IYKYK). Pick up the six when done Thang 2 Mosey down to the rock pile and choose wisely Set 1 - Bernie Sanders up the hill with your rocks stopping at each of the red No Parking Signs (and the upper fire hydrant) for 3 downhill-facing Burpees. Mosey back down the hill. When finished, do 10 curls and Bernie Sanders back up the hill to pick up the six. Set 2 - Jog up the hill while curling your rock stopping at each of the No Parking signs and the aforementioned fire hydrant for 5 uphill-facing Big Boi Situps with your rock. Put your rock back when done Thang 3 (the Merlot Maker) Indian Run back toward the flag (which wasn't there) stopping about 100 yds away, line up, then gimme AYG on my GO to where the flag should have been. Finish off with a set of Hundos

COT:

Count, Names, Announcements (Christmas Party and Santa Ruck on 12/6) Prayers - Durty Nelly, Simple Jack's neighbor, Ma Bell's in-laws and Dad, safe travels, unspoken Pledge to an unseen flag

Naked-Man Moleskin:

  • High tempo just means continuous movement and give maximum effort for the full 45 minutes. No standing around, no 10-counts. (Should be) no walking. Push yourself.
  • We need to implement more of this mindset in all our workouts so we can accelerate and do epic shit. But you can't be skeered. Yeah I'm looking at you, Relient
  • Soul Glo did the opposite of the above for parts of the workout but then turned on the jets during the final sprint. Can you say sandbagging?
  • Happy birthday, Simple Jack! I think I kind of stole the Q out from under him, but was honored he spent part of his birthday at the beat down and coffeeteria with us
  • Speaking of coffeeteria, 3 for great conversation. The coffee was meh
  • MIAGD, HTTR, Go Pack and as always, GTHC!
