11 grown-boys made their way to Timberwolf this morning. 8 of the PAX members played some off-season Ultimate while the other 3 PAX members opted for a standard beatdown to save those knees! YHC can speak to Ultimate. Here’s what went down… WARMARAMA – Moseyed down to the football field to find an illuminated arena thanks to painter lights, extension cords and a 4:30am alarm clock for YHC. Let’s gooooo!!! Grabbed some grass and stretched out. SSH’s, DMH, Leg Stretches, Arm Circles, Shoulder Stretches, LBC’s, Merkins, Wilson’s Wife and Fudd’s Wife. The THANG – Split into (2) teams of (4)…

Traffic at 345 in the morning was surprisingly heavy as YHC had to take a detour to get to Swift Creek Middle. Managed to get around the road pavers and get a 5k in before the Graveyard Shift
3 HIMs showed up for a low intensity/high spirits 0430 graveyard shift. According to the construction workers, here’s what took place. Carried our sandbags down to the track and did a quick warm-up. YHC confused some when he called helicopters but started doing arm circles, but we figured it out. Feeling loose, we got to work. 20 Squat Thrusters Sandbag carry 1/4 mile 40 Zercher Squats Sandbag carry 1/4 mile 60 plank walk-overs Sandbag carry 1/4 mile 80 walking lunges Sandbag carry 1/4 mile 100 mountain climbers with clean and press every 10 climbers Run around the track once and…
We finally had a cold morning! For YHC, this represents ideal running conditions. After speeding into the parking lot at the last minute and providing the route – we were off. Down Mt MidloTake the Staircase onto the path by the pondThrough Midlothian Mines Park Up the Hill, take a left (or right) at the main roadFind your way back however you want. At 6:15, everyone was accounted for. Numbers/Names/Announcements/Prayer Requests Final Thoughts: This was my first time leading MOT – we seem to have a nice core group that has risen from the ashes of Source of Truth. It…
5 big boys showed up early for some OTB pull-up and dips training. Props to Tiger King for the second week in a row of extra credit! My frequency of posts will wane soon as I complete the move up to PA – so i’m cherishing every last moment with these stallions! The Big Dipper shined on the following moves… Warmarama – Arm Circles, DMHang, Hollow Rocks COP1 Banded muscle up and Pull-up Training COP 2 11’s with Dips and Pull-ups (10 pull-ups, ouch!) COP 3 Escalator pullups and dips (1, up to 4, start again, two times through) Great…
Somme HIMs got really excited about cheering on Trav and Tay-tay last night and that enthusiasm drove 7 of us to meet at the stop sign at 0530 and ruck for an hour. We traveled throughout RounTrey for 3.5 miles. Coffee was consumed, conversations were had, world problems have been solved (theoretically). Nice morning to put some light work in between Alamo and the other AO’s we will conquer this week. There is interest in doing this consistently, so in between our First Tuesday of the Month Rucks, we will meet at the stop sign on Camdale Dr & Bellstone…
YHC woke up extra early and couldnt get back to sleep, so decided to get a little extra run in before the pull up session. Was turning out to be an easy run at a decent pace until YHC decided to try a new road to get back to Ecoff. About a third of a mile down this dark road and there’s a DEAD END sign. YHC got cookin! 8 minute mile pace back for close to a mile and a half
Were gonna go inside, were gonna go outside, inside and outside. Were gonna get ’em on the run boys and once we get ’em on the run were gonna keep ’em on the run. And then were gonna go go go go go and were not gonna stop til we get across that goalline. 12 (+1 Rucker) showed up to defend the Alamo in the dark gloom this morning. Hot Potato called when the Q Sheet went blank leading up to the Q. (Rumors of Cookie playing games vs the beer winning) Meatball: Warmara – Did we ever finish the…
YHC started running at 515 with the goal of picking up some runners and Ruckers at 6am. The F3 parking area appeared to be empty, so I pushed on for 9 miles total. Had to say hello and bounce as Purple Rain and company arrived for the bootcamp. Sorry I missed it!
2 Gloom Warriors decided to Goyne Hard. Got a nice run in, and conversation was just as good. This made my morning run over 10 miles. Mudslide said his run was 2.98!! No way I’m stopping my watch there. I’m at least gettin it to 3. Probably 5k.
