AO: thebuffalo
Q: greyalbum
PAX: Ultratecht, Hot Route, The Bobs, Daylight, Duplex
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
CONDITIONS: Rainforest

WARMUP:

F3

RUN TO COUPON PILE AND DOWN TO WATERFRONT

Warmup
SSH
Seal Claps
Overhead Press
LBAC
Runner’s Stretch

THE THANG:

Partner or trio up (if trio add 100 reps to each set)

THIS IS A RACE FOR DISTANCE. The team that makes it the farthest in the allotted time wins the event.

After completing a set each group earns 20 seconds of running time. The faster you run, the farther you get!

ADD a set of 10 burpees after your 200 reps and get 10 extra seconds of running time!

Mid point between where both runners end up is where they start from next, i.e. one guy runs 100 yds, one guy runs 50 yards the team starts next from the 75 yd mark.

Divide reps up as needed between teammates:

200 squats
RUN
200 merkin
RUN
200 overhead press
RUN
200 lunge walk
RUN
200 curls
– RUN
Surprise! The clock will run for 30 seconds. Do as many Crunchy Frogs as possible. Number of crunchy frogs determines number of giant steps the team can take.

Game Over! Ultratecht and The Bobs are champions!
