Source of Leg Discomfort

Eight denizens of the greater SOJ geographic area linked up once again for another round of fun that we call Source of Truth. We were evenly divided between bootcampers and runners. The high humidity and illuminated football field left little doubt that a good time would be had by all. Here is a brief summary for your viewing pleasure:

Mosey to the lower parking lot for warmups:
walking Russian Soldiers, walking Helicopters, walking Big Arm Circles, Forward Straddle Hops, Hillbillies, Lunge Walk, LBC’s, Hand Release Merkins.

Mosey to the track area for Exercise One:
3 rounds of the following:
50 jump squats, 20 pole smokers, Bear Crawl up the big staircase with a merkin every other stair. Run around to the grass hill and Crab Walk down. The Pax split up and did these OYO.

Mosey to the upper football practice field for Exercise Two:
Divide the field into 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and full. Run and do 10 exercises at each interval:
WWII sit ups, Heels to Heaven, American Hammers, Hello Dolly’s, Alabama Prom Dates, Freddie Mercuries.

Mosey to Victory Hill – 7 times run up and down, alternating PAX

Exercise 4: Battan Death March – line up and Bear Crawl down the field – man in the back does 5 burpees, then run to the front.
*mercifully called due to time constraints.

YHC took us out.

Final thoughts: Outstanding effort by all today. For unknown reasons, that upper football field was absolutely soaked; despite a lack of rain or any visible sprinkler system. Defied the laws of nature! We were all drenched and covered in grass and mud.

Runners were looking strong! I heard they completed 5.5 miles or so. Those guys have been getting after it preparing for the marathon. Well done.
