Dodge This!

While doing our pre-workout laps around the basketball court we all notice the illuminated floodlights on the volleyball pit. That only means one thing, sand sprints. We started first on the basketball court doing ball toss relays, the concept of which eluded both CEO.com and I for quite a while at first but we finally got the hang of it. Basically, most of us stand in a line and shuffle left while 5 people toss a ball at us and we toss it back then they toss it to the next person and they toss it back and so on. Let me warn you that zoning out is not a good idea during this activity. I drifted off in thought and Radio Diva nearly took my head off with a medicine ball.

After a few rounds of this modified dodgeball we went into the classroom for some timed and counted plankwalks and leg lifts....then the time was here, it was time to go to the sand pit of pain aka the volleyball court. We did our sand sprints and then it came, the thing I was warned about, sand plank crawls. Of course because I'm the odd woman out and didn't have a partner, Sgt Laura, who by the way is quite petite with short arms, volunteered to plank for me and I am supposed to crawl under her....in the sand. To make it even better, we had to demonstrate the plank crawls for the group. By the time it was over the imprint in the sand looked like I was trying to tunnel through the DMZ of North Korea! Thankfully I haven't detailed my car yet.
