Mucho Beasto

I was about a hot minute away Sunday evening from texting Goose to see if he wanted to go to Kryptonite when Hot Spot's weekly Q summary came in. And guess what? There was my name for A-Team! You see, I knew that. I was just testing y'all to see YOU knew that. Yeah. yeah.

As we rolled up to the Park entrance, no cars. That can only mean 5 things:

1. There was a convergence we didn't know about


2. We got our days mixed up and it's not actually Monday


3. Wolverine took off and everyone is now going there instead of A-Team


4. Everyone but YHC and Goose is fart-sacking


5. Cheddar Bo is up early this morning and has unlocked the gates.

Alas, it was the latter. Since my crudely drafted plans revolved around an entrance start, I had exactly 1 minute on the drive to the back of the park to rearrange the workout in my head.

It was a good crowd on a nice crisp morning. A couple of long sleeves made appearances. Not to worry; you'll be warm soon enough.

Warm-Up

Jog back toward the entrance to the bridge at the base of the big hill and circle up for

• 4 x sloooooooow GMs IC


• 10 x Merkins IC


• 10 x Sir Fazio Arm Circles (forward and backward) IC

• 2nd set: 6 star jumps at the 6 stopping points, followed by SSHs til the 6 arrived. Then a set of speed mucho abs-o (10 big boy sit-ups, 10 dying cockroaches, 10 flutter kicks, 10 LBCs, 10 American hammers)


• 3rd set: 6 LBCs at the 6 stopping points, SSHs til the 6 arrived, followed my speed mucho chesto


• 4th set: 6 plank jacks at the 6 stopping points, SSHs til the 6 arrived, followed my speed mucho abs-o


• 5th set: 6 merkins at the 6 stopping points, SSHs til the 6 arrived, followed by speed mucho chesto. What? I thought that was legitimate.


• 6th set: 6 burpees (crowd favorite) at the 6 stopping points, SSHs til the 6 arrived, followed by speed mucho abs-o

Jog back toward the shovel flag, circling back to pick up the 6 when you reach the top of the hill. Continue jog to the open basketball court and line up for

NMS

• YHC was seriously considering Kryptonite. That would not have been a good look for the Nan'tan to miss a Q THE DAY AFTER Q SCHOOL


• It was an honor to lead this morning; you boys brought your lunch pails today! The only groan I heard was at the call of burpees on the final round of the beast


• At least someone told me it was a groan; to me it sounded like cheers


• If you count the merkins during the burpees and the IC merkins as 2 each, we knocked out 272 merkins today. You'll thank me later.
