  • The late leprechaun

    5:20 and IYG had to send a text to Marmaduke that he was going to be late and could he lead the warm up. YHC had a Leprechaun scavenger hunt planned that was going to be epic. YHC then set his alarm for 5 rather than 4:30 which meant he wouldn’t be able to get the scavenger hunt items out.

    NMS:

    The plan this morning was to really hit the legs hard but when YHC says plan I really mean it was a thought more so than a plan. Somewhere along the way the wheels fell off and the leg killer got a little more like a full body workout which is always good too.

    Clown car leaves from SOT for the Bridge this Saturday NLT 6:05 see Flatline for Details

    Vagabond has the Q at Rock n Roll

    Honeymoon will lead the way for the Murph tomorrow at Twin Team

    NMS:

    The tooth fairies proved to be one of those exercises that looked good on paper but in reality where a real smoker during the beatdown. Originally, YHC had called Merkins at the top but modified it to LBC’s mid way up the 15 steps worth of tooth fairies (X10). After the ball of man there was a conversation about tooth fairies and how DTH could make them suck worse, that’s when the thought of how we could partner carry while doing tooth fairies came up. It was a unanimous decision that anyway you slice it, Partner carry tooth fairies is just a bad idea.

  • Pay me now and Pay me later

    8 fully frozen adult men made their way out of the comforts of the fartsack and into the gloom this morning looking for a DTH beatdown only to find YHC had highjacked the Q and would not let go.

  • Just a couple miles

    2 50+ men took to the mean streets of Midlothian to see who else wanted to rumble on a 70 and sunny morning. Surprisingly enough there wasn’t another sole in sight at 5:30 except for the cafeteria lady and we all know Doublemint and YHC are together not man enough to fight with her.

    First to the river and back up through JRHS and once around the track, across to River Downs up the big hill and around the back side. Back around the JRHS track and BTTF for right at 6 miles @ 9:05 pace according to Doublemint and his fancy watch.

    Numbers / Names

    Running through River Downs and pointing out the houses that I know are lawyers, Doublemint seems to know them all and has at one time done some work with them. YHC seems to be stuck on 6 miles, I know its time to get out and add a couple more to the total but I can’t stand the cold anymore.

  • What to do, what to do?

    4 cars in the parking lot this morning but only one willing to bootcamp, the other three went to ring Gumbos door bell before running away to hide. What was done at that solo bootcamp remains a mystery. YHC can tell you that there where lots of merkins a few LBC’s some dolly’s and Rosallita’s just to name a few but if you want to know what it all totaled up to you’ll have to come to Twin Team to find out.
