2020 has been the biggest clusterF of years and so it is only appropriate to name a really shi$%^y workout in honor of the year. The idea came while sitting at coffeteria with The Force and Blackbeard. TF's M saw something online to the effect if 2020 will be considered a curse word in the future. Hell, it is now. Thus the idea was born. I decided on the exercises yesterday on my run and the plan was ready for execution. Oh, and if that were not enough, it was Bruce Adelman's 2nd post so a naming would occur. For those that missed out, you can relive the awfulness below:
No warmorama just a mosey to grab blocks and rocks.
Circle up by the pull-up bars to learn what was in store for all.
YHC provided instructions of the 2020, a 20×1 ladder. The ladder consisted of 20 Burners with a coupon – block, rock, or KB, followed by 1 pull-up until you completed the ladder, or AMRAP in the alloted time. It was brutal. Spoiler alert – we didn't finish the whole ladder. I believe we made it to 5 Burners, and 16 pull-ups. For those of you doing the math, that is 200 Burners and 135 pull-ups. It truly sucked and I give the PAX huge credit for getting as far as they did. This could have been an IPC it was that hard and stupid.

It was my buddy Bruce's 2nd post. I have known Bruce for 9 or 10 years, as we used to work out at HFFA before F3. He is also a recruiter who helped me on my last job hunt. He is a diehard NY'er, loving the Giants & Yankees. Thus, a sports related name would be chosen. His last name is Adelman, similar to Edelmen from the Pats, a hated rival. Edelman's # is 11, and that was how many Pax attended his first post. Thus Brucie is now 11. Time to get on the website and register.
It was a big crowd and a lot of mumble chatter was heard. A lot of BS calls, this is stupid, why would you do such a thing, etc., and that was just what I was saying…
Welcome back Cherry Bomb, glad you are back and recovered
Crab Legs & Frogger ran a standard, and to the PAX it looked like CL was chasing Frogger around LFC. Fenway would have been proud of your route.
Strong work by all and I appreciate you sticking with me even though it was CSAUP.
Stay safe
