Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

As a massive number of PAX rolled in for GC, I noticed that nearly all had on reflective gear or a Ruck. Light crowd for the Boot Camp portion, but it only takes 2 PAX (and we had 7). There was all kinds of Running and Rucking going on, but here's what we did for the Boot Camp:

The Thang

Known as the Running Escalator at WIB in Metro.

Warm Up Lap around the outside of the GC lot (~ half mile).

Form up in Pairs (with one triple due to odd numbers) and do the following:

- 1 Pull Up

- 2 Merkins

- 3 LBC

While the other PAX is doing Mountain Climbers. Then flapjack and the second PAX multiplies x2:

- 2 Pull Ups

- 4 Merkins

- 6 LBC

The flapjacking and multiplication continues up to 11x and then descends down to 1x, replacing the Mountain Climbers with Prison Squats.

At increments of 5, we took a lap around the lot along with a special lap at 11s, so it looked like this:

Lap, 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, Lap, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, 10x, Lap, 11x, Lap, 10x, 9x, 8x, 7x, 6x, Lap, 5x, 4x, 3x, 2x, 1x, Lap

In the end, this turned out to be totaled per team at:

- 121 Pull Ups

- 242 Merkins

- 363 LBCs

Not much to report on this one. My 3rd Q of the week and was looking for something fresh, so I turned to other regions for inspiration. Overall a keeper I think.
