Started with the normal warm ups near the track and quickly realized it was time to put the hurt on the guys!  We headed down the trails at the end of the school to find the new pass through road being built. 

At this point we declared the top and the bottom of the hill so we could start in on the fun.

Game of 11’s was the task for today with pushups at one end and squats at the other. 

Team crushed it and we came in just over 3 miles on the hill. 

Strong work by all it was hot out and we stayed busy for sure.  Look forward to my next Q and I would say it’s getting more and more light out so who knows where that Q might show up!

NMS:

Door 23 was a good topic of discussion this morning and what actually happened to it. There is only an outline and a set of steps to let you know that it was ever even there. Legend has it the there was a kid named Billy Jackson back a few years after the school was built, Billy was a challenging child at best. Back then the teachers could spank the disruptive problem children and that usually straightened them out a bit but not Billy, he just kept on with his mumble chatter and disrespect of authority. After Billy was in the 7th grade for the 4th year in a row Mrs. Crambackler decided she had had enough and she took Billy out back through door 20A and into door 23. She locked the door on the way out and school went on as usual ending around 2:30 that day but everyone forgot that Billy had not come out of door 23. Several weeks latter when everyone was wondering why the class disruptions where way down someone asked where was Billy. That’s when Mrs. Crambackler smiled and said that he had moved suddenly to Hoboken, NJ. A nice Handyman from the area was asked to take door 23 out and brick it over. Nobody since has ever seen what is behind the bricks that used to be door 23 but if you listen real closely as you pass by you can hear Mumble Chatter as you pass by.

Florence took us out.

Final Thoughts: Great effort by all the PAX today! It has been awhile since I ventured down that path in the lower parking lot. Any homeless individuals or early morning walkers surely scattered when they saw our army of headlamps approaching. Solid work by the runners completing 5 plus.

Appreciate the opportunity to lead.

10 Boot Campers & 4 runners emerged from their automobiles and were met with 70 degree temperatures and sunny skies @ SOT this morning. The Boot Campers didn’t run with the runners, but they ran all the same. Here’s what’s rumored to have occurred:

THANG

Mosey around Midlo Middle. Lots of mumblechatter regarding amount of running before the lap concluded

COP: SSHs, DQs, Merkins, Boxcutters (slow & fast), X’s & O’s

Field Trip Mosey across adjacent shopping center parking lot to church parking lot

Partner up for BEARimeter: BearCrawl loop around 3 parking lot islands with partner, switch when runner catches up. Repeato with CrawlBear loop around 2 parking lot islands

Mosey back to shopping center parking lot

Line up to Lunge Uphill for 60s

Mosey back to Midlo Middle, proceed around back of school and down to track.

2 lines on goal line for Over/Unders: first guy runs 5 yards then elbow planks, next guy in line runs over elbow planker, runs additional 5 yards then gets in Fudd’s Wife’s pose. Next go goes over, then under, then runs 5 yards and elbow planks. Repeato until you’re the last guy and carry on until the end of the field. Race the other line of PAX. There was damn near a mutiny.

Lap of Insubordination.

Stop at bleachers for Tiabattas: Dips x8, then Step Ups or Box Jums x8

The mumblechatter was deafening.

Mosey back to VSF.

30s left, so LBC oyo until time

COT

YHC asked for a moment of silence to reflect on the violence in Ukraine and how lucky we are to live where we do.

Naked Moleskin

That was fun. It must of been a successful workout because POG was gassed and Marmaduke couldn’t even get any words out. Thanks for the field trips and acting like kids this morning. YHC needed that.

SOT BB from 3/16 : POG led bootcampers in a beatdown on a gigantic 4 corners circuit in church parking lot. Many variations and much groaning. Runners ran #BigDataIntegrity

YHC may have been hoping for an empty parking lot this morning so he could go home and Peleton in the warmth of his basement. The night prior when YHC saw the forecast of rain he checked the Q sheet to see if he would want to partake. Obviously forgetting he was Q! According to the bus driver here is what went down.

COP- extended with extra exercises under the awning.

Triple Triple! 3 triple checks runs were on 1st to door 1, 2nd to door 2, 3rd to door 3. Various exercises performed by the other 2 including MErkins, LBC’s, squats, Lunges, etc.

Mosey one more lap to door 3 then BTTF as the rain stopped.

YHC took us out in prayer.

Thanks Bullseye and Florence for the motivation this AM.
