  • Keep your mouths shut

    Light warm up in the parking lot then off to the tennis courts at JRHS.

    The drill on the courts – shuttle run the width of two courts 5 times, then 20 merkins and 40 air squats. Repeat 4 more times.

    Mosey to the entrance of the football field. One pax runs a loop through the lot while the remaining alternate between SSH, wall sits, air squats, and donkey kicks. Swap and repeat for 2 cycles.

    Mosey across the parking lot to the short hill. Crawl bear up the hill, then sprint the hill 3 times.

    Mosey back to Weaver for various exercises and a little stretching.

    OC shared that his son is rotating thru the training staff with the VT football team. Earlier this week, coach Pry pulled them in and reminded them to keep their mouths shut. We all speculated that meant the RB Bhayshul Tuten would be out this weekend. To everyone’s surprise, the game started today and we discovered QB Kyron Drones is out. See OC for details.

  • Flat route at River Run

    Headed left out of Weaver and looped through JRHS back to Robious. Right into Riverdowns North, left on Forest Creek, and another left on Lenox Forest. Cross Robious into Kings Farm. Turn around at Riverdowns South, just before hitting roller coaster, and reverse back to Weaver.

    4+ total. Doozy hung with us while tapering for another half this weekend. Good luck Doozy.

    Good conversations this morning.

    Prayers and quick healing for Singer as he heads into surgery on his elbow next week.

  • No COP, No Welcome Message

    Sixteen bootcampers and six runners appeared at SOT on a beautiful Spring morning. The QIC was rusty and unprepared for the larger crowd. This is how it went.

    Mosey around the school while the last runner sprinted to the front.

    Stop in front after 1 lap for a curb crawl.

    Doors. Begin at Door 1 with 1 Merkin. Door 2, 2 Jump Squats. Continue to door 24 when chatter was too loud to ignore. Best line… “This is the dumbest thing we’ve ever done.” XOXO, DK.

    Mosey to the bus loop for a Dora. 100 Donkey Kicks, 200 2-ct Flutters, 300 SSH. Timer runs around the bus loop.

    Mosey to the bottom of the hill by the track for a Triple Check. Plank, Wall Sit, Timer runs up and down the hill.

    Mosey up the hill Bernie style. Circle up at the flag for a quick Wring of Fire.

    Welcome to FNG, Enron. Thanks to Duke for taking us out. Thanks to all the others for their verbal “support” and spending this awesome morning with me. Nice to see so many veterans and new faces.
