A Taste of Colorado 🤠 🐎

Date: 2026-06-09 AO: Middle Tooth Q: Toothless , PAX: Esposa, Toothless, Pep, DrRupp, TheShield FNGs: None COUNT: 5 CONDITIONS: Rain threatened in the forecast but it was just gray and breezy, surprisingly dry actually on that manicured field!

THE THANG: A Taste of Colorado :face_with_cowboy_hat: :racehorse: Head to the field
Barrels Relay PAX run the barrel pattern one at a time. The waiting PAX perform static exercises AMRAP and cycle until all PAX have completed the barrel pattern. Incorrect pattern results in a time penalty. PAX must beat their group time each round to avoid a penalty.
Round 1 – Prisoner Squats Round 2 – Merkins Round 3 – WWI’s Round 4 – Hillbillies
Stampede Bear crawl sharks and minnows. Simple as that. 3 rounds.
Climbing Pikes Peak The Manitou Incline is a set of 2768 railroad tie steps gaining 2000ft of elevation in a mile. Let’s climb it. PAX perform 200 mountain climbers each, each side is half.
Quarter Horse Dash The namesake of the Quarter Horse, a primary stock and mountain horse breed, came from being the fastest at a quarter mile run. Three of four sides of the jogging track is exactly 1/4 of a mile. Run a lap with someone calling finish times. Continue to run laps and beat that time or your new time else be faced with AMRAP exercises for the remaining laps.
MARY: Dealers choice starting with 10 bucking broncos aka donkey kicks
MOLESKINE: Phew! I felt that one – maybe it was the humidity but there were several points that had me gassed. Barrels relay was a tremendous success with this group, with the time being improved upon every round from 1:51 down to a tie with the last round at exactly 1:41.05 for all PAX to complete the pattern. Stampede aka bear crawl sharks and minnows featured athletic feats and full football play calling, with Esposa having several diving tags and DrRupp and Toothless successfully running option and cross patterns to confuse the sharks for 3 rounds in a row as the remaining minnows. YHC cut down the 1/4 mile run after the first lap for time and energy bc if you can’t do it, don’t Q it! PAX still ran the field and back and kept it at a loping gate though. DrRupp topped things off with some wild yet controlled buckin’ broncos :muscle:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Check Slack, of course – Grow school this Saturday – 7/11 convergence with SLT handoff
COT: – Prayers for Pep, Toothless, TheShield
