So this is extra credit?

The BackBlast:

Brisk air on Friday. Myers Park dads and Young Life young guns were hyping up Swole at a Christmas Eve event so I decided to show up for the 6am regularly scheduled tour. YHC skipped Fortress (sorry Coach) to see the magic myself at Swole. Turns out the exclusive text chain rescheduled the workout to 7am, so YHC grabbed the lead and four of us disappeared into the silence of freedom park.

Warmup

15 SSH

15 Imperial Walkers

10 Mountain Climbers
Mosey to Freedom Park’s southern stadium carved into the sides of the hill.

The Thang

10 hill sprints northbound to the park center
3x hill loops stopping at each lit pole for: Merkins → Squats → Monkey Humpers
Gains were alive with the sound of no cars and faint Christmas nostalgia.
Repeato on the way back to the drop zone, 10 more hill sprints heading south across the stadium.

COT
No FNGs. Prayers up for Taurus driving to Cleveland and Diego’s strength.
