17 PAX got stronger and faster today at U-Turn with Brexit’s 1 year anniversary at F3.
There was some chatter about the ‘Rebel Walk’ warm up implying PAX looked they all $hit themselves… This theme continued into prayer requests as Dauber asked for prayers that he could make it through mile one without having a bowel movement. His running mates were pleased he made it back for 2nd F without doing so. God answers prayers!

Arse Kickers, Rebel Walk, and Union Jacks.

The Workout:
EC: 187, Hotspot, Bernie, H1N1, Brexit.

10 PAX for a Half Dozen at Any Given Sunday

October 7, 2018/in Any Given Sunday /QIC: Mookie
PAX: Bernie, Boy George, Brexit, Draper, Farva, Forceps, Hasselhoff, Mookie, Skidmark

Still waiting on the cooler temps and the humidity to lift, but 10 PAX got stronger this morning at Any Given Sunday. On my way onto Raleigh St. en route to Womble, Brexit and Bernie were seen getting some extra miles. Arrived early to the tennis court lot and quickly was met by additional PAX including Forceps, Skidmark, Hot Spot, Farva, Hasselhoff, and Draper, and Boy George. YHC unfortunately could not lead this morning still nursing shin splints, so Skidmark (fresh off a 1/2 Marathon yesterday at U-Turn) thankfully accepted the leadership role on this morning’s run.

Warm Up: Quick jog to both sides of the tennis court lot. On the second pass, switched to butt kickers and Frankensteins to the half way point and then alternated carioca to the end and then back to the half way point to circle up for the following:

Imperial Walkers x10, Hillbillies x10, Hacky Sacks x10 (IC). Fazio Arm Circles x10 F/B. Michael Phelps

The Workout: 6 mi Scout Run (1/2 Marathon Route- counterclockwise around the lake and exist route to Sugg Farm instead of greenway). While PAX enjoyed a humid 6 mi in the gloom, YHC stayed back in the parking lot to do some stretch\core\upper body work as follows:

Occupied a parking space- Squats x50, Bear Crawl to the other side, 25 Curb Merkins, Bear Crawl back, Squats x25, Bear Crawl to other side, 20 Curb Merkins, Bear Crawl Back, Squats x20, Bear Crawl other side. then stopped…. feeling uninspired flying solo in the lot, YHC decided that instead of sleeping in car waiting for #HIM to return as jokingly noted by Brexit after the warm-up, made a quick trek to the nearby Dunkin Donuts for some coffee and donuts to invoke a 2nd F after the run\COT.

Arrived back to the Womble lot to see the faint glow of F3 reflective gear in the distance by the baseball fields as PAX made their final push to the tennis lot. Realizing that they were a little over 0.25 miles short of 6mi upon return to tennis lot, Skidmark, Hot Spot, Hasselhoff and Draper decided to make it official and took off for another loop around the soccer fields.

Circled up for some stretching and mumblechatter.

Mary: Varying stretches

Announcements: CSAUP- October 20th, SAS 5K next Saturday, U-Turn needs a Q for next week

Prayer: Prayers for Hasselhoff who is battling a pinched nerve in his neck, Draper celebrating 18 year wedding anniversary. YHC’s friend John, who recently passed this week. He leaves a wife and young children. Continued prayers for his family. Additional prayers for a safe and healthy upcoming week.
