After ending another week with Amazon, come home take a nap then get up to honor my commitment of the Q. A hard working 13 came out and perhaps I’m should star or put something beside my name to indicate that come at your own risk. I knew that I was going to have something that brings it(no doubt). Let’s highlight…. Started out with a WARMARAMMA (SSHs, Don Quixotes, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Copperhead Squats, Merkins, LBCs plus a little stretching(Parker loves it, fact he gets a little PTSD). After that, it was time for the main feast Part 1:…

14(!) refined gentlemen assembled this morning at Twin Team. Not to ascend that mighty mountain, but to experience the smoothness of yacht rock on the banks of James River. 5:30 hit and we were off. Cue up the yacht rock and then Indigenous people run north towards the water. 5 merkins at the back before catching up. Once there it was time for a little COP. Exercises included SSH, Hillbillies, American Hammers, hand release merkins, and flutter kicks. Then a triple check of a run around the floating dock, dips, and Carolina dry docks. Followed by 1-5 and back down…

Big data got the best of me. Sunday, I noticed that I was 3 Qs short of 70 all-time Qs. Not impressive for most of the OGs out there, but it pushed me to lead 3x this week. Anyway, today was about getting pool ready. Here is how it went down: Mosey around the back side of the school doing a farmer’s carry….when I started to hear, “how much longer Heist?”, I knew it was time to stop.

This morning, saw a hawk getting ready to look for his daily feast then the geese decided to wander and check out what the humans were up to(plus maybe they were looking for a tasty treat). One morning, maybe I will bring some cracked corn(they like it) and of course they will poop. Plus as they saw us, they figured let’s see what we are up to. A robust group of 16 came out for another Mudslide session. Mosey over to the courts for a WARMARAMMA (SSHs, Don Quixotes, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers, Merkins, LBCs, Alabama Prom Dates) plus a…
3 runners (1 with 4 paws) Made it out for an extended version of Premature Acceleration. Birdie is YHC’s run buddy during the week and it was time for her to make her F3 debut. She even has herself a good little F3 name (Eagle) YHC was a couple minutes late getting to Rockwood, but never got into a vehicle, and we would be traveling on foot (or paws) the whole way! We met up with Boberry at Rockwood and all of us got a solid 2 hours in. Boberry is a beast having just completed GTE less than a…
The dawn mists of Rockwood welcomed 7 ruckers and 2 walkers for an hour of Morning Wood. Mudslide set a brisk pace and seemingly covered every possible trail in the woods while 4 post-GTE HIM’s told war stories. A big welcome back to Speedo! Strong work everyone. Yours, DTH
