As time ticked closer to 5:30am, the 20 PAX must have felt confused…maybe a little scared. Brother at Law confided in me that he was totally embarrassed. 5:30, no CCR. At this very moment, CCR was enjoying the very last bit of REM sleep which included a vision of the scoreboard from tonight’s historic beatdown (more to come on what it revealed). 5:32am came and a frantic blur of hygene, urination, coffee making (after urination), dressing, hitting a dear, fixing the dents, hitting vegemite’s wife as she was out getting the paper in her robe, caring for her, buying cones at CVS and finally pulling into the parking lot at 5:39am. Surprisingly, Bagger had taken charge of the situation and pulled out the fan favorite Sharknado. Anyone seen Big Perm lately? Quite a start to the morning. I assume there was a warm-up of some sort, but that will be left out of this account. PAX finish up their 2nd Sharknado lap and head to the parking lot, line up and partner up for the real THANG.
THANG
Deconstructed Burpees
Parter 1 performs a 5-legged suicide (run forward, backpedal back) while Parter 2 performs the deconstructed burpee pieces listed below. Flapjack, rinse and repeat until each piece has been completed, SSH for the 6 of course.
Squats (Deep…touching both hands to the ground)
Thrusters (like an atomic merkin without the merkin)
Merkins (slow and low focusing on form over quantity)
Frog Hops (These were bad if you actually did them the whole time)
Squat Jumps (form started slipping here)
All-In…SSH together for a few seconds, then resume suicides with Full Burpees in lieu of the pieces we just practiced. PSL and Too Tall both noted that the burpees were way easier after practicing all the pieces for so long. SSH for the 6
Rinse and repeat with a 3-legged suicide vs. 5. Enough of that.

Flutter Kicks x30 IC
Hello Dollys x20 IC
LBCs x20 IC
High Plank for about 1 min…Ludwig interjects with a great joke about counting. Done.
COT/BOM/COFFEE (Thanks to Umbrella for bringing the necessary 2nd pot of Joe this am)
BULLHORN
Hit up Bagger for more details about the Barefoot Republic 5k 4 MLK. Next Monday. Here is the link for more information as well…https://barefootrepublic.org/archive-events/5k-4-mlk/
Remember to un-silence your alarm when you go to bed tonight.
MOLESKINE
Good times this am. I feel lucky that this morning was the first time in almost two years that I had an alarm malfunction. Glad Bagger gave everyone a small taste of the Sharknado, but even more glad that you didn’t have to finish. Good luck to Harvey Updyke and the underdog Tide as they try to beat the long odds tonight. Almost forgot…my REM vision…i am going to make the very bold prediction that UGA puts the beatdown on Bama tonight. Final score 27-13. Take that to the bank fellas. If I am wrong, I will do 10 extra burpees tomorrow am.
Cheers,
CCR
