Petey Pattycake Merkin Mile
Petey fumbled the football, so Coach Boone made him run all 5,280 feet to learn his lesson. The one-mile path was utilized for this part of the workout. The mile, ran as a group, was broken up in to 4 segments. Each quarter mile was preceded by 25 Pattycake Merkins, done with a partner of course.
Blue Up Downs
We paused for a brief lesson from Blue and Coach Boone, learning that water is for sissies and for washing blood off of one’s uniform, and one does not get blood on one’s uniform. The PAX gathered up for up downs until Porcelain was no longer tired or thirsty. YHC led the PAX with foot chops until Coach Boone (YHC) blew his whistle, prompting us to drop our chest to the ground, get back up, and continue chopping. This lasted for a solid 4 minutes.
Modified-Dora
Next up was some Modified-Dora at the base of TC Williams High School (The Parthenon) . With their partner, the PAX accomplished 25 Yoast Yurpees (Clap Burpee with two Tuck Jumps), 50 Julius Jump Squats, and 75 Bertier Little Baby Flutter Crunches. The other half of the Dora was running up the stairs to the top of the Parthenon and back.
Ain’t No Mountain Climbers
Whilst listening to the Marvin Gaye classic, the PAX were continuously doing Mountain Climbers for the duration of the song. Whenever the word “Baby” was said, the PAX flipped their feet forward and did 5 LBCs, then resume doing Mountain Climbers. This continued until the sweet sound of Marvin’s voice came to an end.
Once we finished learning that there was in fact no mountain high enough, we finished things off with some Louie Lastik Lieutenant Dangers (Lt. Dans with a Merkin) for about 100 meters.
We concluded the workout with a solid 60-seconds of Bertier’s Momma (Freddie) Mercuries.
MOLESKIN:
- Studio 42’s pastor’s wife just had a late miscarriage. If you are a praying person, please keep their family in your prayers as they wade through this very difficult time.
