Traveling Triangle of Death

11 stalwarts gathered at 06:00 (growing to 13 by 06:10) for today’s hot potato edition of Dogpile. As they have for the past 6 years, temps remained steady at sunny and 70.

Mosey to the illuminated grass between the Amphitheater and the Ha’ Penny Stage for the COP. All exercises in cadence.

IWs
SSHs
Hillbillies
Swirly’s Deadman Hang (standard, then alternate one leg in front of the other).
LBCs
FKs
Scorpion kicks
HRMs
Inverted Scorpion Kicks

Mosey to the Ha’ Penny Stage, grab a block, and mosey to the super-dark space between Ha’ Penny, Carillon, and Amphitheater.

Elevens Plus:

Start with one HRM at the stone walkway. Run to the middle, pick up a block, perform 5 curls, and continue to the non-illuminated lamppost. Perform 10 flutter kicks (2 count). Repeato for 2-9, 3-8, etc., always performing 5 curls at the midpoint.

In case Swirly’s M reads this, YHC can attest, under penalty of perjury, that Swirly was not injury in any way during this exercise.

Handshake Q:

Return most of the blocks, then mosey to the Triangle of Death.

Traveling Triple Check:

Grab a block. First man carries block from Circle to the first corner of the triangle and back. Second man does HRMs. Third man does WWIIs. When first man returns, pass the block to second man.

Then, travel as a group. The entire group runs from Circle to first corner. Man with block continues to second corner, then runs back to the first corner (all with the block). Men without blocks do HRMs and WWIIs while they wait. When second man returns, pass block to third man.

Then travel as a group to second corner (bottom of hill). Man with block continues to third corner (up the hill to the circle). Other two guys do HRMs and WWIIs while they wait.

Keep this cycle up until three full loops have been made of the Triangle of Death. YHC & Co. had four guys – hats off to those who only had three.

HoneyDo Q:

Mosey to Park Ave. for Burpee Road. 2 burpees at each lamppost.

Mosey BTTF.

Number-ram-a, Name-a-ram-a, HoneyDo took us out.

Announcements/Requests:

TYA is close to wrapping up treatments, perhaps as early as Monday. Health care workers have had a lot to deal with in the past year. Then, this. Ts&Ps. All kidding aside: you got this and the PAX is behind you.

Prayers for Bleeder and his family.

Prayers for those going through COVID stress.

NMS:

Small, but solid group today. Way to push.

Good to see our recent COVID casualties are back. Hope the recovery is full and quick.

Thanks to HoneyDo and Handshake for jumping in when the Q sheet was open. Nice work, gentlemen.

Also, that might have been the worst unanticipated positioning of a light during any YHC Q. YHC apologizes to anyone who might have been impacted. Though, to be clear, if his M asks, Swirly was definitely not impacted, scraped, injured, or anything.

Turns out Deuce and Bodo’s both have an extra gear when carrying the block.

UpChuck spits the bit.

Share.

  1. Great times today. It was relatively quiet since we were on the move so much. I’m really surprised the Cinderblock didn’t break when Swirly kicked it, it must have been reinforced.
