Warmup

The Thang

Merkin Indian Run – two laps around front of library and field loop, last pax drops for 10 Merkins, then sprints to the front
Aiken Legs: (back to back with no rest)
  • 20 x Squats (IC)
  • 20 x Table jumps (OYO, Air Chair for the six)
  • 20 Lunges (IC)

Rinse and repeat
Mosey to racquetball court

  • Captain Therkin – Captain Thor with 5 Merkins between each set.  YHC missed Saturday’s backblast and thought this was Capt. Therkin’s big debut, but turns out Heisenberg beat me to it.
  • 30 x Flutter kicks
    • At this juncture, Toxic tried to pull his signature “clarify, distract, and delay” move by starting to describe a famous boxing match he had watched in the 1800s.  It has taken us a long time to wise up to Toxic’s tactics, but YHC managed to see through the deception this time and continue to our last exercise.
  • 20 x Rosalita

Mosey to the flag
