A few weeks ago YHC posted at #Parliament and much to YHC&#8217;s suprise @Ziffle hits me with a &#8220;Froistbyte &#8211; you is looking so small&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sheesh, thanks for that. YHC retorts saying that I have been spending too much time chasing down @Greenspan on some runs and haven&#8217;t done a lot of bootcamping recently.<\/p>\n<p>Well, now I am back in the groove and sat down to plan the beatdown for this AM. I leveraged the great database of backblasts #BackblastsMatter and found in the archives a beatdown led none only by our very own @Greenspan circa 2020 &#8211; it can be found here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/2020\/01\/it-was-tabata-fun\/\">It Was Tabata Fun \u2013 F3 Nation: Winston-Salem, NC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>YHC sees that this is sufficient enough and completely different than my prior 2 Qs at this #AO where they were pretty much the same workout rinsed and repeat. And off we go<\/p>\n<p>3 runners got some EC miles in and around Lewisville Clemmons Road. Topics of conversation included whether or not 5 guys serving breakfast would be a good idea, do eggs deserve a spot on a burger, and @Blind Date&#8217;s school records for swim team (but he was homeschooled?!), and Ragnar &#8211; because of course we can&#8217;t be running without reminiscing on good times.<\/p>\n<p>We arrive back with a few minutes to spare and much to YHC&#8217;s surprise, @Greenspan is there waiting for us! He made the &#8220;smarter&#8221; call by not joining for the EC, but YHC cannot remember the last time @Greenspan has made it to #TheDistillery. Some chirps were made.<\/p>\n<p>Then to an even greater surprise, @Madoff pulls up! Is this circa 2020?! Now it makes sense why @Greeny was there. And the SiteQ emeritus (@Madoff) had to stop by while he was in town.<\/p>\n<p>Anywho, we exchange pleasantries and more guys trickle in and we get started.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what we did:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Warmarama:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>SSH &#8211; 10 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Imperial Walkers &#8211; 10 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Hillbillies &#8211; 5 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Abe Vigoda &#8211; 6 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Whirles &#8211; 5 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Copperhead Squats &#8211; 5 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Arm Swirlys F\/R &#8211; 10 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Seal Claps &#8211; 5 x IC<\/p>\n<p>OH Claps &#8211; 5 x IC<\/p>\n<p>Mosey to blocks!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>The Thang<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Tabata: Forty Seconds On, 10 Seconds Off. 3 exercises per round.\u00a0 After Each Round, run a lap.<\/p>\n<p>Round 1: Block Swings, Curls, Upright Rows; run<\/p>\n<p>Round 2: Carolina Dry Docks, Backward Lunge, Burpees, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 3: High Plank, Squat Thrust, Shoulder Taps, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 4: Alternating Side Squat, Hand Release Merkin, Freddie Mercury, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 5: Low Plank, Mountain Climbers, Squats, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 6: Monkey Humpers, Diamond Merkins, Lunge Walks, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 7: Ranger Merkins, American Hammers, Dying Cockroach, run<\/p>\n<p>Round 8: Blockees, Skull Crushers, Chest Press, run<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Mary:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>High Dolleys x 10 IC<\/p>\n<p>Mutton Crunch x 10 IC<\/p>\n<p>Penguin Crunch x 10 IC<\/p>\n<p>LBCs x 10 IC<\/p>\n<p>Total Body Destroyers &#8211; 10 x IC<\/p>\n<p>TIME!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>NMM:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>YHC had a Q Fail with the timer during R1.
