All 21s to kick-off 2021

Stern, Show Boat, 2 -Stop and YHC met at 0440 for a little EC Ruck action and was able to log 2.8 miles. Was greeted by a great showing of PAX ready to kick-off the first MASH of 2021. The celebration went a little something like this…

The Thang

YHC informed the PAX that since this was the first MASH of 2021, we would be celebrating the New Year off with getting comfortable with the number 21. All exercises would have 21 reps. We first took off for a mosey around Dowdy Ficklen Stadium. At each gate, YHC would call on a PAX for an exercise. Once an exercise was chosen, it could not be chosen again. We had a wide array of exercises including merkins, squats, leg crawlers, LBCs, jump squats, mountain climbers and derkins to name a few. And even Cousin Eddie decided it was a good idea to throw in 21 burpees. YHC did not know if he was looking for an ass kicker or that was the only exercise left that he knew… either way it was brutal.

At the end of the tour of the stadium, YHC led the PAX to the Minges Meadows for a round of Bear Crawl 4 Corners. PAX would bear crawl to each corner of the meadows and performed the following exercises with 21 reps of each exercise; merkins, squats, LBCs and diamond merkins.

Moseyed to the lower minges parking lot at the bottom of the sledding hill. At the bottom of the hill, PAX would perform 21 erkins then would crab walk up the hill. At the top of the hill, PAX performed 21 WWIIs.

Moseyed to the tennis courts for another round of 4 Corners. No bear crawl this time as the PAX would sprint the straightaway and karaoke the shorter distance. The exercises at each corner were;

21 count BTTW (Stern)

21 Imperial Walkers (Bartman)

21 Hallelujahs (2-Stop)

21  LBCs (Minnesota Fats)

Moseyed to the Pirate Statue. PAX would perform 21 dips at the statue and then climb Mount Murphy and performed 21 squats.

Moseyed to the other side of Mount Murphy and performed 21 merkins at the bottom and then bear crawled the stairs to perform 21 more squats. Had a few minutes remaining so Show Boat led a round of flutter kicks until 0615
