THA-THANG: The Tree-Biscuit
Just like the Jaws theme, this workout is SUPER simple with only two notes, but oh so terrifying and challenging. This workout had just two elements running and burpees. We ran to every tree, stopped, called out the tree number and did a burpee. That’s it!
Within 25 minutes we managed to tag 156 trees with burpees. I mistakenly ended the workout at 6:05 since I thought we’d be totally toast and would then need some larger recovery time. Turns out the hungry beasts wanted a Mary too. So next time we’ll do the whole 45 minutes and aim for hitting 200 burpees. Usually I go way over time and catch heat for that… Turns out I catch more heat for ending early. #still-a-rookie
MARY:
- 5 Burpee Destroyers
- 10 Burpee Penalties for saying Fitness Faith and Fellowship instead of Fitness Fellowship and Faith. (The Judge brought the hammer down)
- 30 Pickle Pounders
- 25 Freddy Mercuries
- 25 Tempo Merkins
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Current stressors have me totally scatter brained. I could barely count to five during the warm up. Totally spaced on the Mary and the timing. So preached to myself and others about resting in the lord and finding peace in him.
Psalm 37:7 Rest in the Lord and wait [b]patiently for Him;
Isaiah 40:31 Yet those who [a]wait for the Lord
Will gain new strength;
They will [b]mount up with [c]wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.
Here’s hoping and praying that all my brothers find some peace amidst the storms today.
Amen!
MOLESKIN:
Apologies for ending early! It won’t happen again! lol. 😉
