Lucky 13 PAX showed up at Hunter Street Park on a beautiful 60-degree June morning for my first Q since milestone birthday week a few months ago.  We were all about to confirm that the 0.5-mile loop around this AO lends itself pretty well to a nice little running circuit with a few pain stations.  0545 approaches, none of the prolific mumblechatterers in attendance (probably at BO with Burt), quick check for FNGs (none), and a brief announcement that there will be no awkward partner exercises today... and off we go.

Warm-Up

Short jog to parking lot and circle up for:

  • 21 SSH, IC

  • 15 Windmills

  • 15 IW, IC

  • 15 Hillbillies, IC


Circuit

Run counter-clockwise around 0.5-mile path with 3 pain station stops:

  1. Behind right field fence: 25 star jumps, 15 Shakiras on each side

  2. Picnic tables: 25 dips, 25 dirkins

  3. Drinking fountain at skate park: BTTW with 10 Australian push-ups, 5 Australian MCs on each leg


Upon return to parking lot, bear crawl around the island before starting the next loop

All PAX completed at least 2+ loops

Dessert

Baseball/Softball field gate is locked so:

  • Backwards run to end of fence outside of field

  • 10 burpees

  • Plank walk to your left half way back to the dugout, then switch to the right
