  • The Sounds From The Woods

    6 Davillians arrived at Atlee HS this morning for another Monday Runday

    Ruckers – Did their thing for 3ish miles

    Route – The PAX headed out together for a Kings Charter Loop. Trout and Opus stayed on KC drive, turn around about halfway for 4.6 miles. Sludge and YHC turned onto Stephens Manor to get a hill loop in and finished with 5.1 miles

    Pretty quiet morning except for some sounds coming from the woods behind football field. The PAX couldn’t decide if it was music or some loud dogs.

    SPIT ON THAT!!

    Small crowd but fun morning. Doozy was the first to arrived but parked in the wrong parking lot. Speaking with him afterwards, it seems the app is due for a little updating. YHC will need to put in a good word with Wilson.

    It was good to have Doozy joins us for is first ever KB workout. 2 down and 3 to go for his summer tour part in DaVille

    Glide moved up in weight but we ran out time before we could host a graduation ceremony. Something for the Q in weeks to come to keep in mind

    YHC tried to give some “encouragement” to Mudface and No Idea in regards to the running part. The “encouragement” was countered with major resistance mainly from Mudface. YHC will keep this in mind for Mudface’s Q tomorrow.

    Emoji showed off some skills during the Demon crushers using YHC’s 35lb KB. This guy normally only uses 20 lbs. Maybe its time to increase that weight!

    ANNOUNCEMENTS

    • Anvil tomorrow – Per Mudface if we get at least 10 out we do something “fun”. If not we will be doing The Murph. Summer tourists, be sure to make the trip!
    • Puppy Pile this Saturday – Starts at 7:05

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Track Day

    11 Runners/Ruckers including one summer tourist arrived at Atlee HS for a change of pace day.

    Ruckers did their thing and YHC gave the option for the PAX to either run the 1.6 mile lap around the schools or get in some sprint work.

    Doozy, Wheelie, and As You Wish did laps and the rest headed to the track

    This is how it went down on the track

    Deciding Ladder – Running at about 75% speed, the following was completed:

    • 1 – 800m
    • 2 – 400m’s
    • 4 – 200m’s
    • 6 – 100m’s

    1 mile-ish mosey back to the parking lot

    As training continues for the Colonial 70, YHC knew the back need a change of pace. Glide crushed the pace giving YHC a challenge every lap

    Good to have Circle K and 7-11 back out again. Circle K noted he had planned to run the Michigan today which 7-11 responded Track Day was a better choice

    Glad to have Doozy join us today. Thanks for making the trip up north

    Small but fun crew this morning. YHC got things start in a non traditional way. Yesterday was YHC’s 2.0 First birthday. Since he didn’t have the Q the day before today would be have do. The celebrate the PAX did one burpees every minute for the first 12 minutes.

    This has been come a tradition for YHC around his 2.0’s birthday. As most would agree our 2.0’s are the best things that have happen to us (minus our M’s) so we should celebrate them.

    Glad to have Patti Mayo back visiting us. Always good to catch up with him.

    Also good see Denver (formerly known as Grizzly) back out
