94 degrees at game time. True HIMs battle through, and so after pledging allegiance 9 math-letes braved the streets of downtown Cary for a number-themed extravaganza.
Mosey to the circle for…
Warmup
SSHs, Sir Fazio, Cotton Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Plank Jacks, Merkins on my down AND up, and a few burpees cause I hear it’s a good stretch.
Thang 1
Double Nickel down the street. Alternating 5 Monkey Humpers at one light pole, 5 burpees at the next. Get to the end of the street and continue mosey over the elementary school.
Thang 2.0
7s on the sidewalk, Star Jumps and Dying Cock-a-roaches. Once complete, mosey back toward the flag.
Thang 2.1
Now is where things get interesting. Pick a wall or bench, start with 5 wall-jump burpees. Then 4, and count it down to one.
Mary
PAX choice of Mary exercises. Including Homer to Marge, cause BB run club. Mosey to the fountain to take a foot bath.

NMS
- Burpee count today was 75
- There was a lot of complaining about the heat. I don’t control the weather boys.
- Saban didn’t remind me how long it takes to get back to the flag. Not a single time.
- Jordan Lake Brewing Company is a little hidden gem. Check it out.
- T-claps to Disco Duck for continuing to keep Rush Hour going. Its a lot of fun, so check it out if you haven’t. I love running up to the circle and doing warmups to show off. The PAX strategically positioned themselves during Monkey Humpers to let their best side show.
- T-claps to the newer guys like Navin. Stay after it.
- Be a little better today than you were yesterday. It was a pleasure to lead this fine group.
