5 Super Mario’s
5 Cadbury’s
7:08 am – The THANG:
I split the PAX into two groups so we would not have 15 people at one location at a time. First group did Bowser’s Castle (at original location) and the second group moseyed over by another admin building with a ramp to complete the Urban Moo Moo Meadows Race
Race #1: Bowser Castle
Four cones set up in a square with Powerups scattered throughout. PAX have to pick up a power-up if they don’t have one. PAX do the workout on the back of the powerup, then can use the powerup if they want.
Lap 1: Bernie
Lap 2: Super Mario’s
Lap 3: Cadbury’s
Race #2: Urban Moo Moo Meadows – Other admind building with Power Ups once again scattered around the course.
Lap 1: Bear Crawl
Lap 2: Duck Walk
Lap 3: Gorilla Walk
We went through the first course we were on twice and the other course once and then had a battle royal at Bowser Castle with half of the PAX going around backwards while the other PAX went the other way. Chaos and silliness ensued, but it was fun!
Huge THANK YOU to South Sand PAX Training for the format, cards, and general idea… for the second time.
