4:45 came early for YHC as I enjoyed a beer tasting food menu Thursday evening, perhaps enjoying a little too much…but I made it out in the gloom for another edition of the blue hair beatdown at Uptown Funk. Always an honor for YHC to Q this one as it is always high energy and a great AO. Also an honor to join Xerox on the Q as he EH’d me to join this thing in the first place. It was a good group of regulars, 28 to be exact. After a brief disclaimer, we were off.

Starting on top of the parking deck we did 5 Burpees,

Run down 1 level and do 15 Donkey Kicks, back up spiral to top and do 5 Burpees

Run down 2 levels and do 25 Monkey Squats (note Q fail on this as YHC failed to demonstrate a proper monkey squat – saw monkey jumpers and wojo squats and all kind of miscellaneous movements, next time YHC will give everyone a tutorial on monkey squats) then run back up spiral to top and do 5 Burpees

Run down 3 levels and do 35 Lunges, back up spiral and do 5 Burpees

Run down to street level and do 75 LBC’s

Most of us made it through the Plank Jacks with a few Sugar Rays finishing it all. Then it was a mosey back to the shovel flag for…
