Not THAT kind of craps, the dice kind…
A hot and humid June morning began with a 5:00 Standard… Tantrum, Dirt, Turnpike and Silver Bullet joined YHC for the echoes of a Titan 5-miler. Ran to bottom of Canoe Cove and up Mortimer Hill. Back down Alba to New Bond and picked up Jingle Bells. I figured Turnpike skipped the 5-miler last week for Bonesaw, so we could give him the highlights (i.e. my favorite hill). I mentioned this during the run, but was dismayed to learn by this logic I owe him 120 burpees for skipping The Estate last week. I immediately regretted the conversation, forget I said anything! Picked up Jingle Bells mid-Standard. 2.3 miles total. Back at the bus lot we added Calypso for the 530 launch.
WARM-O-RAMA:
- Mosey to front of school, mix in butt kickers and long-striders along the way. Circle up.
- SSH x 20
- IST x 20
- Little Baby Arm Circles x 30 seconds
- Cotton Pickers x 20
- Mosey to back side of track (thankfully I scouted the AO early, found only the back gate was open)
MAIN EVENT:
Land at the Hopewell track and discover a box. Theme became…
Well, it's a pair of dice and this:
Run a lap around the track, roll the dice, do the exercise, AMRAP. 6-8 laps for most?
MARY:
- Mosey back to bus lot. Psyche! Sprint the hill. Now circle up…
- Leg Lifts x 20
- WW2 x 20
- LBC x 20
- Plank out the final minute
MOLESKIN:
- Sprinklers were running on the football field, was totally amused that Tantrum and Calypso both pulled an Andy Dufresne (explanation photo at bottom).
- Definitely recommend the AMRAP style exercises for newer Q's.
- How the HELL do I roll Bear Crawl, Lunge 50 yards, Bear Crawl, Crawl Bear, Mountain Climber x 20, Bear Crawl?!? This workout was stupid, dice are stupid, bears are stupid.
- Thank you Tantrum for the opportunity to lead again. Thank you Turnpike for basically forcing this commitment on me (reference Turnpike's last Titan Q, near the end of the Thang: http://www.f3isotope.com/content/track-work-at-titan)
- Dirt looking STRONG every week.
- Latta run group to the AO… gonna make this a thing one monkey humper in Jingle Bell's driveway at a time.
A pleasure as always gents. Until next time…
