Here’s the Workout for Coffee, Cocktails, and Chicken on April 25th

You may have heard about the 10 mile urban hike happening on April 25th called Coffee, Cocktails, and Chicken. You’re all welcome to come. You’re also welcome to come to a quick body weight PT session happening early on in the hike.

The body weight PT is optional. You can participate simply by showing up at the start time at Big Shoulders Coffee because we’ll do the PT shortly after within the first mile. It’s either going to be at Ekchart Park (Chicago and Noble) or Commercial Park (Wolcott, a block north of Chicago).

If you don’t want to participate, you can meet us immediately after at Dark Matter Coffee/Star Lounge at 2521 West Chicago, our second stop.

We’re keeping it simple, here’s the target workout:

  • 100 push-ups
  • 100 squats
  • 100 sit-ups
  • 50 burpees (thighs to ground, no jump)
  • 100 alternating lunges (50 each leg)

You can do more or you can do less. Doesn’t matter, nobody will be counting. We’ll max the time at 20 minutes. I did it today in 5 sets of 20-20-20-10-20 and it took me 19 minutes. Let’s not go overboard because there’s still 9 miles to walk after this and it’s early in the season. This will get more complicated as the season progresses.
