7 warriors braved the morning dew and embarked on a 3.7 mile journey which took us through the enchanted forest to soak city and the short pump orbital. The temperature was 70 and sunny and it went something like this- Mosey to the cement pad- Warm-a-Rama 20 side straddle hops 10 helicopters Dead man hang 10 merkins 20 LBCs Mosey through the enchanted forest Orbital loop- 10 merkins take a lap Rinse and repeat with variations of merkins equaling 100 total merkins for the day ( squat for 6) 50 air press and an orbital 50 more air press and…

Seven showed up on a hot and humid morning for a mix of bootcamp and running. We set off on a cul-de-sac tour, stopping along the way. After a warm-up, we started with 20 two-count Pickle Pounders and 20 two-count LBCs at each stop. After about five rounds, we switched things up with 20 Merkins and 20 two-count LBCs. The heat and humidity did us no favors, but everyone pushed through. Big shoutout to Professor X for digging deep—strong work, brother!

Another WTF Q from the Spring and another fine. After a stop at the Roger Roger cement pad warmup area off John Rolfe, Roger Roger took us to West Broad Village again for an assortment of exercises. Don’t remember much else. Is the fine bigger if you are the site Q? Yes, says the Upchuck book of rules. 40 burpees owed.

Roger Roger had his chance to post this but soon after his Q was in surgery and recovery. This workout was a giant 4 corners in WB Village. I don’t recall the four exercises so will pretend it was 1000 burpees, 800 WW2s, 1200 Merkins and 1 flutter kick. I do remember we did it twice. Guessed who was there–if missing or you should not get credit, let me know. Late fee is ten burpees per backblast.

Apparently the Q was tired and slept for a long time while the Alarm was sounding. After a 100 MPH drive to the AO I arrived only five minutes late. The challenge with a running boot camp is which way did they go. We vary every week but fortunately I picked the right direction and found some clues on my way to catch the pax. Mosey to westbroad village lake gazebo  circle up 10 merkins, 10 LBCs, a few other things I missed probably. Q hand off to Pinto from Lighthouse…Mosey to Golf Galaxy for 5 burpees(punishment for me being Tardy),…

Four warriors and one bad softball player met at WTH for some punishment following a 0-2 beating last night for my Christ Church Episcopal softball team. We moseyed the long way to the Short Pump Park softball field and did some warmups in left field foul territory. Then we did a set of long suicides from foul line to foul line using the 4 light polls as markers. After that run, we went to the diamond. My team did not get around the bases enough so we made up for it today. Man at first doing Monkey Humpers (switched to…

Having gotten the memo, 3 gloom stallions descended upon Pocahontas MS, all donning bright orange shirts. The clock struck 5:30am and like Dutch Olympians going for gold, we were off. COT consisted of some SSHs, arm circles, cherry pickers, DQs, Mt climbers, WWIIs & a 60-second leg hold while YHC defined today’s version of BLIMPS (5 Burpees, 5 Lt. Dans, 5 Imperial Walkers, 5 Merkins, 5 Plank Jacks & 5 SSHs). We went behind the school, took Wally (my dog) off the leash, did a lap and then did a BLIMPS. Then another lap. And another BLIMPS. Lap. Blimps. Lap.…

When I was in Charlotte and it rained, there was one person who always asked if the ‘Dry Package was Installed’. Today, we installed the dry package and went to the Dave and Buster’s parking deck. Yes, we drove there. By the way, Jim Thorpe’s birthday (AKA: Wa-Tho-Huk, May 22 or 28, 1887) might be today! Thorpe was an American athlete who won Olympic gold medals and played professional football, baseball, and basketball. Often considered the greatest athlete of the first half of the 20th Century. And congratulations to Lighthouse who got a paper published on the effect of more…

Six of us did some of Attila’s greatest hits but also ran ~ 3 miles because he was not here. We moseyed to the Wells Fargo for warmups and did his routine of SSH, IW, DQ, Arm Circles, Helicopters, DMH, Merkins and LBCs (sorry for APDs). Then ran to Flo’s parking lot and visited 5 light poles and did 10 HRM at each (50 total). Then did a 3X check of running, jump squats and Freddies. Ran back to the Wells Fargo and partnered up. One ran around the bank while the other did Heals to Heaven, then LBCs and…
