Flatline: It’s A High-Tempo Bootcamp

Flatline: It’s A High-Tempo Bootcamp

QIC: Burns

Date: 4.23.24

PAX: Zima, Doublewide, Lamb Chop, Drip, Spicoli, Skyline, Sassy, Rubber Ducky, Chick Flick, Burns

YHC & Doublewide for a 2-mile warm up EC run. Came back to find Zima getting in some EC work on his own. Sent Spicoli a text last night to make sure he was in the loop. Informed arriving pax to get their stretching in because at 0530 on the dot it was core principles, mission statement, mosey. HIGH TEMPO.

Mosey south on Cherry to Brookstown. There’s a little triangular building at the intersection of Brookstown, Wachovia, and Marshall that we approached with the following plan: at corner one, do hand-release merkins. Corner two, diamond merkins. Corner three, Carolina dry docks. Start with one, and each time around the building add one until we get to 10 of each. 165 merkins/merkin-adjacent exercises. Shoulders and chest smoked. Time to move.

Catch me if you can – partner up and one partner jogs ahead while the other does 5 WWIIs and sprints to catch up, then flapjack. Continue all the way up Wachovia St to the West Salem Public House. Plank for the six.

Outside the Pub we circled up for a Ring of Fire – holding Al Gore, each pax did 5 jump squats, then 4, then 3, then 2, then 1. Time to move.

Catch me if you can, same method, all the way to the Dash parking lot. Plank for the six.

In the Dash lot, we started at the first traffic island  and did one burpee. Add a burpee at each island across the lot, then come back and subtract one. There are six islands. Time to move.

Catch me if you can, same method, all the way back to the launch lot via 2nd street (big hill/crowd pleaser/nut punch). Circle back for the six.

Mary: American Hammer x15 IC, Low Flutter x15 IC.

Announcements: Zima has Conspiracy tomorrow and we’ll finally find out if he’s a real man. Sign up for Samaritan Ministries on the appropriate tab of this spreadsheet.

Prayers: Ziggy

2.6 miles. 50 WWIIs (not 90, Lamb Chop. no chance you got 90). Lots of remarkable MC, but alas, none of it was memorable. Great to see Doublewide, Skyline, and Sassy at Flatline – they aren’t regulars but they sure looked like it. Unclear who the head coach and who the assistant coach of RD & Zima’s kids’ little league team is. The both have whistles, though. Spicoli was given the courtesy text but didn’t need it #ontime. Chick Flick was a great partner for the CMIYC portions.  Drip was out in front most of the morning with a smile on his face.
