Dark Side’s Birthday BD
AO: Dawn Patrol
When: 2024-12-28
QIC: Stroller
PAX (2): Speedo, Stroller
Preamble:
Dark Side alerted me on Thursday that today is his birthday. I offered him the Q but he was only an SC...so I kept the Q and planned a birthday BD for him. He let me know late last night that he wouldn't make it. Guess the Zappa fans partied hard this year. Nevertheless, the BD is planned so we're going to do it. Arrived a few minutes early to place the board of pain. To my surprise, Speedo was waiting at the flag when I returned. Two is more than enough- let's go!Warm-O-Rama:
Mosey to the baseball concession stand. We stopped here for some broga and extended stretching. Then mosey out to the playground parking lot and over to the piano pavilion, which would be part of the loop we would run later.The Thang:
First, a musical interlude. YHC played Happy Birthday on piano while Speedo sung, then we performed "1979" a capella. I can't believe my camera wasn't recording this part. Then, we moved to part 1...- DARK SIDE- perform all exercises at the same rep count, then run a long-ish loop to the concession stand and back around the way we came in. In accordance with our theme, rep counts were 45, then 30, then 15
- Dips
- American Hammers (Alpha)
- Reverse LBC
- Knee to Elbow (Peter Parker) (Alpha)
- Sumo Squat
- Incline Mercan
- Dying Cockroach
- Elbow to Knee
- 12/28s- 12 burpees, 28 of a coupon exercise, then short run to the next parking lot entrance and back around. Time started to get tight, so we capped it at 4 rounds. Standard issue exercises but I don't remember exactly what we did. Then, mosey through the playground and take a hard right over to the soccer field
- 79 Dora Mary- starting at the baseline, we would accumulate 79 reps of a Mary exercise (ahem) with one partner exercising while the other partner bear crawled to the edge of the penalty box and ran back. We got through two rounds, and that was it
