NMS: Great to have Vortex with us the morning who is visiting for the day from Raliegh. YHC tried to give him a proper tour of WDog. A bit of mumble chatter about the Pickleball tournament this Saturday. Especially rules….

YHC took us out. Prayers out to all our children this morning. Praying for a great year!

Oyster

4 W Dog regulars and one traveler from parts unknown fought off the temptation to sleep in, while another was thought to have slept in. As we moseyed, tires squealing alerted us that faceplant was on his way in hot. Pax thought he had slept in, however he was dealing with his other doody which caused his tardiness. Also had Maybe from Charlotte! T claps and thanks for joining.

Mosey to the circle (Some of these exercises may have been changed to protect the innocent) COP- 20 each SSH, LBC; 10 Each, Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperial Walkers, , Copper head squat, Dead man hang, Merkins,  

Thang 1 (The only thang)- Mosey to bottom of amphitheater. 6 people= 5 stations and runner. Runner up around the sides and top of theater. Stations were: Hand release merkins, flutters, Toe taps, LBC’s, incline merkins. We were going to do 3 rounds but Oyster begged to do more. So we ended with 5 and BTTF.

Some were calling for YHC’s passport to be revoked due to YHC’s sheer focus on using the entire AO. However YHC brushed off those threats and persevered. Check out Oysters Garmin tracker on slack to see the ambitious track of running.

Prayers to Maybe’s F3 brother in Charlotte. YHC took us out in prayer.

Announcements. Pickle ball tourney, 10K, Half this Saturday.

It was just one for a nice cool morning at WDog – plus all the construction works for the Carillon.

It went like this:

Run down to the Nickle bridge, 3 merkins at each light pole on the way out, then 5 air squats at each light pole on the way back.

10 burpees to round out the Nickle bridge.

Head down to pump house park and 10 LBCs and 5 WW2s alternating at each light pole all the way to the top of the hill.

At the top then it was lunges alternating with running between each tree up to the top of the triangle hill.

On to the rusty cage for descending 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 pull ups with 5 air squats between each set.

Last stop the amphitheater for 5 dips on each step.

Slow walk and stretch back to the flag – WHEN IT HAPPENED!

A bird pooped on my arm!

quiet reflection this morning and partial disgust when the bird pooped on my arm. I think some people say it is good luck, we’ll see how that pans out for my day today. Miss my Wdog regulars 🙁

Solo workout this morning at WDOG.

Sure missed the pax! It’s never the same alone!

See yall in the gloom!

Oyster greeted YHC and both were thinking of pickleball play simultaneously.

Moseyed to the tennis court next to the burpee lake and played pickleball (13 sets and 11 points per set). YHC was miserably beaten by Oyster and he has improved a lot.

Moseyed back to the flag.

As usual, coffee was provided by YHC after the workout.

Checked off another box on the Summer Tour by Qing at WDog. This is a great AO with the amphitheater, pull-up bars and lots of places to run. We didn’t do much running today, but we took advantage of the amphitheater and the pull-up bars.

Other things of note: Swirly has a new truck. Hitchhiker always brings coffee to the post-workout. Florence checked off another box on the Summer Tour traveling from South of the James to WDog. Initech knows how to spell his nickname (I checked Big Data). Bootleg didn’t bring any moonshine.

YHC Took us out.

NMS:
Welcome Harry Carry (Down Range from Fort Mills, SC). We took a small tour of the AO for our new friend with a 1 mile run around the AO, a quick visit to the Amphitheater and a stop at the Rusty Cage. Hope to see you back again Harry Carry. Harry Carry shared with us that at one of the Fort Mills AO’s each week they are completing a workout from a book called The Hero Workouts (100 workouts dedicated to fallen soldiers and warriors). Thought that was an interesting idea worth sharing. Speaking of dedicating an AO, have you heard Pickleball is at Bateau for the summer. Come on out!
