Backblast: Pain in the park – Saturday is a rugby day

12 beasts of PAX gathered for Bambi’s first Q and to partake in a rugby themed F3, FlorRida, Kay, Dr. Evil, Special Ed, Chipper, Sludge, Sprinkler, Gilmore, Epstein, Checkbook, Boones Farm, Bambi. The average rugby player runs 5-7 miles per game – we tracked around 2.5.

once we got some rugby particulars out of the way – a “knock on” is defined by a fumbling of the pass forward – for workout purposes we counted all dropped passes as a “knock on” – indian run penalty for knock on = burpees , exercise penalty = merkins

12 PAX took to warm-o-rama like the All Blacks warm up for a rugby game like: (note this is also what Steve Earle looks like and is difficult to count in cadence-put this one back in the toolbox)
