Back in the ancient Greek days, the Spartans also enjoyed tequila.  They’d get silly and have backwards races, which contributed to their svelte calf muscles passed down through the generations .  Sadly, it’s been lost to history and is no longer a recognized Olympic event.

Pair up….first to go begins running backwards while the other does 10 calf raises.  Once complete, calf raise guy sprints and catches up to running backwards guy.  Rinse, repeat, rinse repeat all the way to the parking lot where we started.
