Eight braved the elements and posted at WTH despite frozen roads. To keep the PAX upright, we shifted to the parking deck and ran it up and down. At every turn we knocked out 15 Merkins; at the bottom we switched to 20 two-count Freddie Mercurys. On the third round we did 15 Jumping Jacks, then finished things off with a final round of 5 Burpees.
Strong work by all who showed!
Only five posted on the Friday after Thanksgiving, with zero ruckers despite the advertising to a visitor. We took a simple Handshake route—up to the park and back down to the flag. Three runners, two walkers; the runners covered about 4.8 miles.
Thanks to all who posted! And apologies for the delayed backblast.
Eight showed up on a warm 60° morning for a mix of running and bootcamp. We hit the Lake again for four loops, stopping each time for 20 Derkins, 20 Dips, and 20 Heels to Heaven. By the end we logged around 3.5 miles and plenty of mumble chatter, with strong effort and great attitudes all around.
Sorry for the delayed backblast, fellas.
Ten posted on an early Wednesday for a run/bootcamp combo. We headed to Goose Lake and, after a quick warm-up, knocked out lake loops with pain stations: 20 Derkins, 20 WWIIs, 20 Monkey Humpers for the first two loops, then 10 Burpees, 20 two-count LBCs, 40 Calf Raises. Four loops later, time was up and we ran back to the Flag. Total: ~3.5 miles. Great job, everyone!
Despite the heat and humidity, eight showed up for some Friday morning miles. Being the last Friday of the month, we stuck to our usual Bro-Code route, doing our best to stay together as a group. True to form, we still managed to lose Handshake—who had to cut it short—but the spirit of the code lived on! Great effort by all. Keep pushing forward!
Eight showed up on a warm Friday morning ready to take on the Glen Eagles hill and its many cul-de-sacs. Why? Because running uphill is super good for you—don’t just take my word for it, check this out: NYT article. We logged about five miles (give or take), enjoyed the effort, and appreciated the company. Great way to start the day—strong work, gents!
Seven showed up on a hot and humid morning for a mix of bootcamp and running. We set off on a cul-de-sac tour, stopping along the way. After a warm-up, we started with 20 two-count Pickle Pounders and 20 two-count LBCs at each stop. After about five rounds, we switched things up with 20 Merkins and 20 two-count LBCs. The heat and humidity did us no favors, but everyone pushed through. Big shoutout to Professor X for digging deep—strong work, brother!
Eight regulars and one FNG showed up on a warm Saturday morning. It was 70°F at the start and sunny by the end—close enough to call it the elusive 70 and sunny, just not at the same time. After a warm-up, we hit the football field for a cumulative Beast. We started with Hand-Release Merkins and added a new exercise each round: LBCs, Jump Squats, Crab Cakes, Heels-to-Heavens, and finally, Burpees. Six rounds, six stops, six reps per stop. Beastly effort all around. Welcome to our FNG (Stirrup from now on)—glad to have you out there grinding with us. Great work, everyone!
Six showed up on a crisp Friday morning for a mix of running and walking. Half the group took on the hills and cul-de-sacs of Glen Eagles Dr., logging about 4.5 miles. The rest enjoyed a solid 3-mile walk at a brisk pace. Spirits were high all around.
Thanks to everyone who made it out—and as always, apologies for the delayed backblast!
Seven showed up on a beautiful spring morning, ready to put in some work. After a quick warm-up, we ran to Goose Lake and did loops around the water. At the end of each loop, we did 20 Dips, 20 Heels to Heaven, and 20 Jump Squats. Rinse and repeat. By the end, we covered about 3.5 miles. Strong effort all around—great job, fellas!
