Three animaux dangereux launched at The Clinic in the wee hours of the mountain morning, lakeside. Conditions were sunny and 70. According to the fisherman ALREADY out at water’s edge, the following might have happened:
Mosey from 201 Rue Noblemaire to La Plage de Talloires. Circle up. Explain F3 to the FNG.
COP:
SSHs x50.
Dead Man Hang, moving into a little Broga.
Hand Release Merkins x15.
WWIIs x10.
Flutter Kicks x20 (4 count).
Imperial Walkers x10.
Hillbillies x10.
Mosey to the Water’s Edge for Touch a Tree. Said exercise was explained. One time. No questions. Perfectly executed*.
Round of 4: HRMs, Flutter Kicks.
Round of 6: WWIIs, Monkey humpers
Round of 8: Carolina Dry Docks, Jack Webb
* Jackie touched every 3rd tree. YHC assumes the distances between trees were not sufficient, so touching every 3rd tree extended each round. Push yourself, don’t hurt yourself.
Mosey to the dock. Line up for curb crawls. 1 merkin after the first round, then 2, and so forth up to 5, then back down to 1.
Mosey to the small grass field for Elevens. Merkins and WWIIs.
COT: Numbers, names, and YHC took us out.
Close out with a jump in the lake to cool off.
NMS: Spider Runners will remember Jackie who joined us during an UpChuck Q up and down the UR hills some time ago. She’s a stud, to say the least (Wisconsin state champ and headed to run D3 cross-country at Smith College in the fall). She convinced her twin brother, Bobby, to join us. Bobby played high school football for one of the worst programs in the country (0-40 something?) as a kicker (not much work to be done). He’s a committed political activist with a decidedly left wing lean. The PAX considered “Milton Friedman” before ultimately settling on Super Duper Mansplaining, suggested by Jackie, and hereafter authorized to be abbreviated to Mansplaining. Like a man, he owned it. Good dude.
Welcome to our FNG, Mansplaining.
** Note that the DNQ refers to “Does Not Qualify” as YHC has done his one Down Range post on this vacation.
