4.27.19 – Benchmark and then some?

Saturday was a beautiful day at the AO. With the promise of rain turning into snow later in the day, we were lucky enough to finish the workout dry! After the previous nights F2 activity (Dry City) our Q was a little concerned about the PAX turning up in full force, but everyone made it! We started out with some warm-ups of the usual Motivators followed by Tin Soldiers while we were hoping Jazz Hands would show up, but with no sign of him, we headed off to begin the workout.

  • Motivators from 7x
  • Tin Soldiers IC 20x

Thang #1: The Benchmark Workout (Navy PT Test)

Test consists of 2 min AYG Merkin, 2 min AYG BBS, and timed 1.5 mi run

  • 2 min Merkin
  • 2 min Big Boy Situps

It was at this point off in the distance, we saw Jazz Hands running towards us, so we waited to start the run until he got there.

  • 1.5 mi timed run
