LSD BOMBS

AO: atlantis
Q: Chunks
PAX: Toothless, Salpal, Right Said, Red Skull
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
CONDITIONS:
Brisk and Refreshing

WARMUP:
41 SSH
Good Mornings
13 Low and Slow Squats

THE THANG:
Decided to pivot from my original idea because of the “healthy” group that showed up. @right said told me recently that if I wanted to be a better runner I had to identify as a runner and do LSD. Long Slow Distance (LSD), what were you thinking. 😉

@red skull gave us the familiar “RUN” command and we set off to tour the Nations. Thanks Toothless and Right Said for the navigation.

Once my watch alerted me we had run 1 mile we stopped for a round of BOMBS: 5 Burpees, 10 Overhead Press, 15 Merkins, 20 Big Boy Situps, 25 Squats. Then “RUN” was bellowed again and off we went. Finished mile 2 and stopped for BOMBS Round 2: 10 Burpees, 15 Overhead Press, 20 Merkins, 25 Big Boy Situps, 30 Squats. “RUN” for the last time today was given. Ran back to StartEx, with 5 mins to spare for some Dealer’s Choice Mary. I missed the opportunity for BOMBS round 3 and was the PAX told me they were expecting it to start at 15 Burpees. Next time fellas, next time.
MARY:

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
