YHC loudly and proudly called for a 5:00AM Standard in the preblast. I roll into the parking lot at 5:01 and to my (pleasant) surprise didn't see anyone there…. thus the internal dilemma began. Do I get myself out of my car and run or do I set an alarm and take a nap considering I didn't go to bed until after midnight last night?? I'd like to say that I tried to convince myself to run… but I didn't. My girl Siri hooked me up with a 5:20 alarm, leaned my carseat back and took a snooze.
BEEP BEEP! I'm jolted awake and now the fun begins.
The Thing:
Mosey around back to the hill behind the school:
- SSH, IST, TS, CP
- Run to top of hill-> 10 Push Ups-> Run to bottom of hill-> 10 Squats (OYO)
- The Force pumped his chest at how he can still out bench his son!
- Repeato increasing each rep by 1 until we got to 15
- Combination of plank and strectching at bottom of hill while all PAX finished.
Mosey to what I like to call the Colosseum: (and I believe it was Mona Lisa who asked if we were going to fight)
- Box jump 4 levels 5X
- 10 Dips IC, 10 Incline Merican, 10 Count Rocky Balboa
- Repeato with Decline Merican 2nd time
- Box jump 4 levels 5X
Long mosey around school and back to parking lot for Mary
- PAX circled up for Mary, one PAX called an exercise. While other 4 PAX were doing said exercise, the one who called it Bear Crawled around the outside of the PAX
- LBC, WW2 Situp, 1 Leg Straight LBC, Superman, Rosalita
- Plank in circle while each back jumped over the legs of each other.
- Finished off with a few more exercises that are escaping my mind (forgive me and my 26 year old brain)
Still had time after my plan finished so we ended with strectching:
- Hamstring, groin, calf
Recover Recover
Moleskin
I promise to not Fartsack in the car next time I'm alone for a Standard… although I hope to never be alone again for a standard.
I enjoyed my time leading these men this morning and I hope to do it again soon.
Remember to sign up for the CHRISTINA LATINI MEMORIAL 8K on March 30th! I challenge each and every PAX to get at least one more person to sign up for the walk/run or even donate!
