WOR: ssh, goofs, mtn climbers, shaun whites and xc skiers. Some parking lot plyos (skips with arm circles, etc, backward skip, backward lunges, karioke)
The Thang: Hooray for K!
King Arthurs
Pair up. Half the pairs do a king arthur around the parking lot – one pax cantering and the other pax running and clapping the bricks to make the horse noise. Other half of the pairs did copperhead merkins. Switch up and repeat. Then repeat the whole thing again with Kobes instead of merkins. Kobes are flutter kicks passing a basketball between your legs each time.
Mosey to the Field of Dreams (does it already have a name?)
King Louie across the Field
1:4 up to 6:24 burpees and jungle boys. Advance 6 ball bunnies in between (murder bunny with basketball). Pick up the 6 with more Kobes.
Mosey to the Basketball Court (name?)
Knockout of Death
The game of knockout, but if you can out, you can buy back in with 3 Kraken Burpees. Split pax up to the two courts. Not sure if 3 was enough as you want to eventually have a winner. Modified until Dumpster won on the small court and Falsetto won on the big court.
Mosey back to lamp post on edge of Field of Dreams
Kristi Yamaguchi burpees – introduced pax to a modified version of this burpee. Did 180 instead of 360. All skate moves replace the jump. Burpee – 180 – burpee – skater hop – burpee – 180 – burpee – skater hop back to start.
Killer Bees
Ball bunny 10 times then 10 broad jumps with 3 ball burpees in the middle, or something like that. Ball burpees would be good combo with bobby hurley as the jump.
Back to the flag for some Kvas refreshment, thanks to Dumpster!

Moleskine: i had a buddy who i’d do an occasional race with years after college. He’d always say something about there being a lot of young guys with fresh legs, but we’re the veterans. All of us in our 40s and above are veterans of life at this point, so use your veteran knowledge to live wisely and encourage/support the guys with “fresh legs”.

Moleskine:
My wife and I started couples counseling a few months ago. I has been resistant for awhile… but it’s been helpful and we talk about things. It’s good to have a mediator to provide insight, give feedback, tell me what I can do better, and also validate things I say and feel – that sometimes don’t get validated by my wife.
We have a classic married couple problem- Love & Respect: that my wife sometimes doesn’t feel loved and I often don’t feel respected … and we don’t provide those things to each other when we want to or should.
So an assignment our counselor gave us was to write down ways /things that we can provide for the other person. So I listed ways that I think I can show love to my wife and also write down ways that my wife can respect me better. And she listed some ways that she would like to be loved and wrote ways she can respect me. We shared our lists/ compared notes … and for the items that lined up…. our therapist picked two things (for each of us) that we can focus on doing right now.
So… all of that to say… if you’re married and going through tough times… consider counseling/ couples therapy… or maybe just try the assignment that we were given.
