Intro:
YapDog at it again. Oh well… Let’s go boys. He can’t keep up anyways, soon we won’t be able to hear him even if he does want to try and correct us.
Warm-o-Rama:
0530 sharp we set out for The Barn to see The Witch.
SSH – Weed Picker (more on this later)
The Thang:
From the barn we set out down the main drag until veering off to the left to pick up the Red trail.
At the confluence of trails the gazelles held plank for the 6. Once the 6 arrived we stayed in Plank to perform
10 merkins then 15 squats then 20 LBCs.
Now back up the Yellow trail for something truly special.
Do you hear that? Yeah, I don't either. It's the sound of silence. Beautiful silence.
At the pull-up bars gather in equal sized groups (approximately 3 per group).
One PAX performs 10 Burpee-Pullups while the other PAX perform Mountain Climbers waiting their turn. Once all PAX have performed their 10 Burpee Pullups we set out on the trails again…..
Up the yellow to the parking lot….. back down the yellow to……. The Pullup bars again. Short rest before a rinse/repeat of the Burpee Pullups.
This time the waiting PAX perform SSH until their turn for the bar.
YHC recently scouted a nice unmarked trail down toward the power easement. So we set out to get in some miles. Down hill and around to get to the large fallen tree. From here we are at the low point. What better way to get back to the flag than to head up the dreaded BLUE hill of death.
Back at the lot the gazelles performed some Mary. YHC circled back to check on the 6 before catching back up with the gazelles in the parking lot.
Just enough time to do 20-25-30.
20 merkins – 25 squats – 30 LBCs
TIME!

Naked Man Moleskin:
During warmup, YHC called Weed Pickers. At end of weed pickers, YHC called to hold in the middle, right, left, middle for approximately 6-8 seconds each
During all this, YapDog decides he must inform us that "well the book says…. stretch on your own time…."
It's like that kid with his friends and they're all together and heading off on some fascinating adventure. Like "The Goonies" or "Stand By Me". And they get to a point in their adventure where there is a fence with a sign. And that sign says something like "no trespassing" or "beware of dog". While everyone is climbing the fence there's always that one nerdy kid (who probably does well on the school nerd debate team) who keeps pointing to the sign saying, "Guys, the sign says…. But guys! The sign says….". Meanwhile, everyone else is ignoring him and carrying on with their big adventure because they have their sights on the big picture.
Zip it kid. Nobody cares what the sign says.
