THE THANG: how does one prorate the 10 year death anniversary for David Bowie?
I suppose a journey to Stonehenge, listening to some of his most memorable songs is a good start.
Mosey to Trashmore loop for 25 LBC (IC), then jogged Westward another quarter a mile where we stopped for 25 Dips.
After listening to “Changes”, “Watch That Man”, & “Speed of Life”, it was time to gather at the Christmas tree, fragrances, adjacent parking area, and await arrival of the “Star Man”
LBC for the 1st Verse
Star Jumps during Chorus
Merkins for the 2nd Verse
Star Jumps for the Chorus
Squats til End
“Rebel Rebel”
“Golden Years”
“Let’s Dance”
These songs representing attitude, awareness of present station, and desires carried us towards arrival at Stonehenge, where we completed a set of steep hill 5’s.
Burpees at the bottom
Bobby Hurley’s at the top.
After we made the final ascension, we grabbed non-traveling rocks.
When “Life On Mars” began we are already headlong into our sets.
20 Curls (for the Boy or Girls)
20 Overhead Presses
20 Tricep Extensions.
20 Bent Rows
20 Hea-V-Ups
“Queen Bitch”
Repeat set, 15 Reps this time.
Sadly, when the opening notes of “Lady Grinning Soul” trickled out into the darkness, it was time to head back. Mike Garson’s haunting piano melodies saw us through the darkness, back to the path where “Heros” deliver us to the flag right on time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Lunch. Jan 16th, @ Mescalito’s in Rolesville
