50 Shades of Merkins

60 degrees … perfect morning for some pain

Warm-up:

Jog down Overland Rd, across Colonial Ave and to the bottom of the LFH (this will be important later)

We skipped SSH per’s Twitch’s request. 20 Windmills IC; 50 Reverse arm circles; 25 Imperial Walkers IC; 35 Flutter kicks IC (because I doubt we will have time for Mary)…then on to a merkin escalator IC…when we hit 8 Double Dutch complained that because we were on a hill his merking felt more like derkins (2 things were noteworthy about this….no one on the other side of the circle was complaining…and DD said this with an enormous smile on his face yet I do believe he was in pain from his derkins…this has happened before with DD…so while its only n=2 I am pretty sure DD’s pain and suffering face is like Jack Nicklaus’ joker face). Anyway, to accommodate this joker we rotated the circle to turn his derkins into erkins and everyone else’s erkins into derkins. At 13 merkins, derkins or erkins we stopped and mossy to the hill.

The Thang was a modified Jacob’s ladder with a total of 50 merkins each lap (50 merkins on the “little” F#$%ing hill = 50 shades of merkins). We started with 10 hand release merkins at the bottom and 40 regular merkins at the top. Repeat until you do 40 release merkins at the bottom and 10 regular merkins at the top. Enjoy.

When done (or out of time) we jogged back to our cars to finish right at 6:15. When he finished his jog back to the cars Double Humpee had the quote of the morning…”Thats why we have F3, because theres no way I would have done any of that by myself.”
