The Main Thang:
– Run across river via Market Street bridge to Ross’ Landing passing by aquarium
While running, the PAX were instructed that EMOM –Every Minute on the Minute– during the movement the PAX would execute 10 merkins until the run is complete (~1 mile)
(SPOILER ALERT: PAX Completed 1.2 miles in total, and performed 80 Merkins, 10 Dips (aka Freak Nasty’s), and 10 Carolina Dry Docks (because we saw a wet dock); at that point, YHC **INSISTED** that the Q was scripted, despite some mumble chatter suggesting otherwise.)
– Mosey to the bigfoot sized steps and execute:
Jacob’s Ladder (Climb an elevated platform and execute a single exercise at the top, incrementing 1 with each summit until you’ve reached 7)
YHC requested an exercise to complete at the top of the 12 massive steps and Angus offered Burpees, with a wry grin. YHC was not in any mood to argue with the man and since that was the only suggestion, that’s the way it went.
1 Burpee
2 Burpees
3 Burpees
4 Burpees
5 Burpees
6 Burpees
7 Burpees
YHC checked the time –and there we were, 6:01am — Decision was made to return to the loveshack to hopefully have minutes to spare for some <Mary>.
Mary:
10 x Bay City Scissors (IC – 8 count)
LBC x 20 IC
WOD:
Touched on the backstory in the F3Chattanooga newsletter on 9/11 regarding the concept of 1% better/improvement each day. It’s not just in exercising, it’s across all facets of your life.
Keep EH’ing but with respectful approach. I shared a recent story about being a little too overt with my headlocking methods and overlooked the fact that I was being disrespectful; perhaps just a little too passionate… Nevertheless, continue to impress upon other men the strengths of getting together as a group and the benefits you personally have realized from involvement with this awesome crew!
