Hardywood’s Hardest Mile was

0

Exactly that! When I posted the idea to Slack, I didn’t really think anyone would want to do this nonsense. Enter Hardywood! Who originally suggested we do it that first weekend in December, with less than a week to prepare. Luckily, he forgot that weekend was Magnum PI day, and our schedules didn’t align until the final Saturday of the year. YHC got some training in for this CSAUP, but it would have been challenging even with 3 months of training. As I heard Hardywood say last week, to paraphrase, “True growth comes when there is some doubt”. I definitely had some doubt about this one. But all 7 PAX pushed and got it done! Here’s what we did. It was simple, but oh so challenging!

1/4 mile of each

Walking Lunges, Broad Jump Burpees, Bear Crawl, Run.

YHC, got out early to mark each 100 meters to give PAX the option to split up the exercises to get them completed(Thanks DTH, for this idea) A couple of PAX, completed the exercises unbroken. Monsters!

YHC did the lunges unbroken, but split up the burpees and bear crawls.

Props to Offshore for making the trip down, and even made it for an even earlier version of a Morning Wood run with Hardywood, and YHC. And all PAX gutted through a DTH beatdown at Rocknroll. (No burpees were held back!)
