R4TJ – gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble…. GOBBLE
FNGs: Welcome Face Plant! He is one of the 12 Oaks gang and a semi-recent resident to Holly Springs and NC at large. He and his family spend their downtime skiing in either the waters of Florida or on the slopes in the mountains. The PAX struggled in the naming process this morning, as typical the turkey left them pretty lethargic (all that tryptophan?) so we zeroed in on his favorite activities and envisioned a face plant and so he was named.
Warm Up: At about 10 minutes to start time, Cowboy, Maybelline and YHC stood alone at R4TJ as we watched Lipstick quickly exit his truck for the john. Shortly after, Lipsick exited and began running laps around the parking lot… strange but not unusual. We shrugged and considered the allure of the LED beatdown at Possum Trot, “this is probably it..??” we thought. Within a few minutes or so, Nemo and Yogurt arrived on the scene. Good! More running buddies 🙂 Bad! Yogurt hill repeats 🙁 JK Yogurt JK. Within a minute of start an SUV came barreling in. To our surprise… A 12 Oaks clown car complete with an FNG. As Kitty would say… Let’s GO!
So… stretching is apparently bad or has no advantages… So… we like… jogged together around the parking lot and stuff… PAX were encouraged to butt kick, high knee, or really do anything that made them feel like they were ready to run.
The Workout: The Turkey!!! A 5+ mile route that makes the rough shape of a turkey on the Strava map. She’s a big ole bird and she gets a little angry when you approach from the back side (Crossway). No surprise, the 12 F3 PAX had little trouble running this turkey down.
Mary: Thy name is Yogurt – Yogurt’s Ting Hill Repeats – Guaranteed to make you faster, stronger, and a better human being! Cowboy, Nemo, Yogurt, Boy George, Lipstick and YHC were present.(note the 12 Oaks Clown Car didn’t stick around… I kid, I kid)
Announcements: Tryptophan really did a number on these guys today… Silence
T-Claps (Recognition): ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz….
Prayer: Yep, tryptophan again… YHC took us out.
