Bear crawl how far?!?…

Despite a sudden downpour at 0500, 13 drenched swamp rabbits made it out to test their mettle against the crucible.  Fortunately the rain stopped right before we began while adding another level of suck to the already challenging circuit by creating huge puddles, super clingy kitty litter and testing our grip on the monkey bars.

The Thang:

This was an individual event to begin seeding our top teams for the USMC Mud Run. Complete as many laps and stations (.86 miles) as possible before time expires.  Failure to Complete an obstacle = 20 Burpie Penalty.  –Original Plan was to go for 5 laps, the fastest only completed 3 laps in 45 minutes.

Start / Finish: The cross walk by the bridge, run towards Vietnam War Memorial heading to the foot bridge.
Station 1:  Balls To Wall across the foot bridge.  Feet on the rail, walk your hands down the length of the bridge. 
Station 2: Traverse the Monkey Bars.
Station 3: 15 Burpies
Station 4: Low crawl the length of the Kitty Litter.  Knees and Elbows must be touching the sand.
Station 5: Traverse the Monkey Bars
Station 6: Bear Crawl the length of the long field from the intersecting sidewalk to the cone. – FYI bear crawling 100 yards really sucks. Some went the burpie way out here.

The actual race we are training for is 6.2 miles with 36 obstacles.  5.8 per mile which is why we have conveniently laid out 6 per lap.

Results in order of completion:

Mega Mu, Hootie, Domer Simpson, Aloha, Nature Boy, Electric City, Santiago, Grilled Cheese on a Donut. Sherpa, Inspector Gadget, Macho Man, Ice Man, Zoila
