YHC showed up to one arriving in hot. With no one else arriving, we break out the jump rope and do 50 reps as the timer with various KB exercises. Wash repeat and we had a great cool down 2 laps at the end. Tough one this day.
0527 Snuff rolls up ready to take his prize as the Q and the Ghost Flag is pointed out to him. He was all ready to play some Jamz on his 1990’s looking Lunchbox Speaker but alas YHC dropped the Ghost Flag. YHC had a idea but little plan, but YHC likes to riff like a true Jazz artist. Mosey to the darkest corner by the Parking Lot and complete a no-frills COT. Mosey over to the Rosie’s 12 Days of Christmas covered tables for a Triple Chora. YHC invented the Triple Chora but forget the details so an audible…

2 High Impact Hunks emerged from the gloom onto Iron Haul for a run featuring many stops along the way doing 10 reps of various exercises to burn some calories. Glad to have you out this morning Commando, thanks for doing the run with me. Moleskin: The Why – it came up in conversation and it’s always great to be reminded of why we work out. There are many reason why, primarily for my family, not far from that is for my country. How do you want to pay your respects and honor those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice…
If you are reading this, you know there is a prank going around. Beware!

Some folks found it difficult to get out of the fartsack after the epic Crabby beatdown at yesterdays Convergence. For the 6 kettlebell monsters, no issue. After getting a glimpse into this weeks Iron PAX routine, YHC decided to give a slimmed down version of it to the group with a kettlebell in hand. Started off with a long, slow mosey around the parking lot. Once back, DMH, down into a few wife stretches, SSH, merkins, imperial walkers. Lets get it on!!! Round 1: 5 squat thruster, 3 point suicide run spaced out at 5 yards each. Round 2: 5…
Two Runners and Three Ruckers started from Atlee High School on this amazing Tuesday with temperatures in the lower 50s. With this perfect weather, these were the routes. Ruckers – Went somewhere into Giles and possibly other locations. Runners – Did the Giles/Craney Island route. Total Distance was about 4.2 miles. COT: Numberarama, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, BAM! took us out. NMS: It was a pleasure running with BAM! today. The pace seemed faster than normal today. The route we took into Giles is about as hilly as a DaVille route can be. In saying that, BAM! said as we approached the…
YHC’s return to running from a permanent taper has left things rusty and ripe for improvement. The route however, was a classic. 4s, 5s, and 6s ascended out of the AO and had various routes taking in the Grove area and Westham. YHC took us out. Announcements: -Convergence 9/20 @Dogpile, 0700 -Collecting shoes and athletic gear; see Slack for details
Missed out on the RVA Labor Day Convergence sadly, but posted down range with 7 F3 Grandstrand HIMs at AO – Sharknado. Houdini lead the group in a good mix of running and exercises to get in about 2 miles and plenty of merkins, squats, big boy sit ups and a few others. Coffee after…appreciate the southern hospitality fellas. Until next time!
