I Blinded Them with Science

The BackBlast:

Booth texted me Tuesday to make sure I was prepared to Q the next day, I told him yes, and then he failed to post.  Maybe he got wind of my New Wave mix for the beatdown.  Not a favorite flavor for a Deadhead/Roots Rock guy….

Peter Gunn- The Art of Noise: Mosey up to Selwyn Elem teacher lot for basics; SSHs, IWs, Squats, Merkins, Apollo Ohnos, LBCs,  etc. Mosey back to Selwyn back door at Runnymede for some Sharon Towers at the light.

She Blinded Me With Science – Thomas Dolby / Cars – Gary Numan:  Mosey down sidewalk and up to back entrance of MPHS. Partner up.  Partner 1 runs up hill to gate, 10 merkins, and runs back.  Partner 2 runs down hill to bridge at creek, 10 SSHs, and run back. Flapjack.Plank, right arm high, regu-lar, left arm high.

The Reflex – Duran Duran / The One Thing (live) – INXS: Mosey up to MPHS carpool drop off.  Partner 1 run left side stairs and 10 dips at top. Partner 2 run right side of stairs, 10 dips at top. Both run to other side for 10 for dips and back down. Partner 1 run left side stairs, 10 derkins at top. Partner 2 run right side of stairs, 10 derkins at top. Both run to other side for 10 derkins and back down. Mosey up middle stairs and onto MPHS lawn.

What’s on Your Mind (Pure Energy) – Information Society:  Run to courtyard by building near band building. Do series of step ups and derkins. Repeat.

Pearl in the Shell – Howard Jones:  Run to bars for 10 inboard pullups, 10 outboard pullups. Mosey over to MPHS gym lot.

Life’s What You Make It – Talk Talk: Line up at bottom of lot. Partner 1 run up to top of lot while #2 does SSHs. Partner flapjack. Next round do burpees. Flapjack. Next round run 80% to top. Flapjack.  Mosey down to wall by tennis courts. Do series of dips and derkins.

Relax – Frankie 5 Angels Goes to Hollywood: Mosey out to tennis court entrance to MPHS, and then down to Selwyn entrance, run from street up the drive to the yellow gate on the left. On your six for some LBCs, Dying Critters (one leg straight out) each leg, repeat rounds.

I Ran (So Far Away) – A Flock of Seagulls: Mosey up hill and onto AG track.  Line up for one lap of a Guardian Run (formerly known as the Indian Run) around the track.

If You Were Here – Thompson Twins: Mosey off track and AYG back to COT.  About 3 minutes late.  Dang it!

Good group today, we all kept it moving.  The COT count was 24, but maybe someone slipped out early.  Super muggy still, but relief is just around the corner (I think).  Scrubs has excellent form on step ups.  Pisgah and Subway and all the JY run group were flying around the AG track (in both directions).  I think they all enjoyed the Flock of Seagulls out there.  Hammer with a great prayer to send us out and on our way.  If you weren’t there, please know that we missed you – there’s always next week!https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1sDIem1K6WbQyssNDk781O?si=f67bb85b7cb14231
