WARMUP: Various stretches across the field. ‘Mercans, WGS, Cobra. Various running back.

THE THANG: The baseball field was simulated on a football field by running to the sideline 30, mid field, sideline 30 and goal line. 1 pax runs the bases while others do exercises for encouragement. SSH, Imperial Skywalkers, Lateral lunges, and Moroccan nightclubs. Each time a pax reaches home plate they pick up a teammate and continue running. The exercise changes for those not running each time the pax reach home plate. Eventually everyone is running and 1 by 1 each pax stops running in the order they started running. They begin cycling through the exercises for encouragement. Eventually everyone stops running.

All pax ran bases again as a group and stopped at each for more exercises.

Coach was mean and finished off with burpee shuttle runs every 10 yards to the 50.
