Mayhem was my first post in September 2014.\u00a0 It has been a fast fun filled (see what I did there) 11 years with many memories – good, painful, humorous.\u00a0 There was no way to cover all of them but YHC thought it would be fun to visit some spots of the AO we don’t see as much anymore.<\/p>\n
Upon arrival Rollback was doing burpees – I warned him not to do too many knowing there were more to come.\u00a0 Other pax rolled in and it looked like only 3 more would experience this trip down memory lane but Ziffel pulled in at the end of Warmorama as he continued his campaign to rename Spicoli time to Ziffel time.<\/p>\n
Warmorama consisted of several of the standards including a average to below average attempt at Dry Dock Crabs.\u00a0 But time was wasting and lots of ground to cover.\u00a0 Ziffel complained about no warmup and then complained about doing some arm motions during mosey to Elementary School – at least I think he was complaining.<\/p>\n
Stop one was Monkey Humpers – in the back of the school – always better in the back of the school – IYKYK<\/p>\n
Around to one of the better walls of the Dash where we did Peoples Chair along with Rebound Drills and Mike Tysons.\u00a0 Some pull up bars from the not too distant past were nearby so we knocked out 10 pullups before moving on.<\/p>\n
Down the hill to the track.\u00a0 The track and soccer field were often used in days gone by. Muddy Creek floods have not been kind and it is a little dark this time of year.\u00a0 Pulling out another oldie but goodie we circled the track reverse peloton style.<\/p>\n
We finished near the hill that where many beatdowns featured 7s or 11s.\u00a0 For the sake of time we only did 5s with LBCs and Merkins.<\/p>\n
Up the hill and around to the front of the elementary school where one of YHC’s most painful memories occurred – 10 burpees EMOM.\u00a0 My memory was this was part of IPC one year but maybe not.\u00a0 I do remember Van Gogh being there so it could have just been one of his beatdowns.\u00a0 Plan was to go 5 minutes – rest of the pax were going strong but Q felt the everyone got the idea how bad this was after 3 minutes.\u00a0 We had other stuff to do anyway.<\/p>\n
We had a brief stop by a former oft used hill that is now so grown up only rabbits and stray kindergardners could scale it.\u00a0 It was the site of one of Dr. Toot’s injuries.\u00a0 We honored him with a set of squats.<\/p>\n
On to the original rock pile of Mayhem near the entrance at Meadowlark.\u00a0 Rocks of adequate size were chosen and we knocked out various numbers of reps of curls, skull crushers, bent over rows and bus drivers.<\/p>\n
Back to launch via new path with a somewhat orderly reverse peloton.\u00a0 We took a left at the hill to nowhere and the peloton fell apart but all made it back to launch.<\/p>\n
Just enough time for a DQQ special – Sumo Drill.\u00a0 After a quick trade of weight classes, the match ups were Ziffel\/Slow Pitch and Rollback\/Subfloor. Both ended fairly quickly and YHC took on Ziffel not knowing he had 5 years of Judo training.\u00a0 We both made some moves but Ziffel was the champion Sumo of the day.<\/p>\n
A few quick minutes of Mary and we’re done.<\/p>\n
NMM<\/p>\n
Fun to relive some old memories and spots of the AO<\/p>\n
Rollback seemed inspired to have some sort of Mayhem reunion – would love to see some of the old regulars back<\/p>\n
Puddles are large on track – need couple weeks of dry weather before any adventures down there<\/p>\n
The early morning dogs being walked on Meadowlark path did not know what to think of 5 dudes lifting rocks<\/p>\n
Strong group of pax that YHC felt honored to show off some of the old haunts of the AO<\/p>\n
ANNOUNCMENTS<\/p>\n

WNC workday next week – see Superfly<\/p>\n
