Hanging By a Moment…7 PAX Make Some Memories @ AGS.
YHC drew some inspiration from a conversation during yesterday’s 2nd F at Panera. Deadbolt and Shredder were exchanging on childhood memories of boating and things that were passed onto them by their dads. Subsequently, these very things were being passed onto their 2.0’s and the things that helped shaped them as men. I was fortunate enough to be present for this exchange and was not lost on YHC that the lesson to take away from this conversation is that we are all on stage for our 2.0’s at all times, and it is through these special moments that we leave an impact on their lives long after we are gone. Time is passing fast and the need to make the best of these moments is crucial. How do we want to be remembered? For YHC, this was a needed reminder and one all PAX should keep in focus.
Like every Sunday, YHC rolled into Womble looking to hit the reset button. I’ve said this before about AGS, you just never know who may show up. This morning did not disappoint. We had a solid group of HIM, which included Abe, Full House, Bobby Dall, Redenbacher, Aquaman, and an FNG we later named Goldilocks
FNGs: Goldilocks- Is the proud father of 3 little girls.. When he said it, Full House I guess was reminded of 3 little bears, and said “Goldilocks.” YHC asked if they were all blonde, and there it was…Goldilocks.
Warm Up: Light jog to end of the lot from the flag. Mosey back to the flag and switched to carioca (with switch), Butt Kickers and Frankensteins on the return. Mosey to the back lot, where Ivan used to meet. Circled up for Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Good Mornings, Morocan Nightclubs X10 IC. Prisoner Squats. Squat Hold while YHC explained the route.
The Workout: Nice and easy 5 miler- Down and Up Stinson, Right on Bass Lake, Left on Salem Ridge, Left on Linksland, Left on Holly Springs Road, Left On Bass Lake, Right on Earp, Left on Raleigh Street and then onto Womble via Stinson. Great push by all PAX. There were several pick up the six moments, but the group was fairly close together for the whole run that those picking up the six did not have to travel far. As we approached Womble, there were a few significant moments worth noting… YHC turned to Aquaman and motioned to the skyline where the sun was just starting to appear. Yet another great sunrise at AGS. These never get old on Sunday’s. Just then, we witnessed a crazy partner carry between a bald eagle and a squirrel. Gave new meaning to the term picking up the six.
Mary: Planks and a series stretches, while conducting name o’rama
Announcements: Check Slack for community opportunities. Great work from Dumbo and the crew yesterday in building a greenhouse. 2nd F at the new Dunkin Donuts on Sunset Lake.
T-Claps (Recognition): Great accountability and push from all PAX throughout the run. Redenbacher for what should be a speed record on Stinson. In the final jailbreak to the flag, that guy took off like he stole something. Goldilocks for his F3 debut of a solid 5mi run.
Prayer: Continued prayers for Wallaby. Aquaman took us out.
