It was wet

November 18, 2018/in Disney /QIC: Nemo
PAX: Buford, Dawgpound, Kid Cracker, Lab Rat, Nemo, Skidmark, Warbucks

It was 38 degrees, raining, windy and just about T-48 hours to HSHM. Would anyone show? Could this make for the most desirable and legitimate fartsack of the year? YHC was followed into the parking lot around 4:59, arriving a few mins early for EC, by Warbucks, who was at the ready to to keep the EC streak alive and well. As we ran we talked about a reasonable over/under for number of PAX to post. We settled in on 6 and in typical F3 South Wake fashion, the safe bet would have been the over. We had 7 strong and the rain actually let up, only for a few minutes, for us to get in another solid workout at Disney.

Warm Up: Standard jog around the soccer fields with some puddle dodging then circled up for a quick round of standard w/u motions – SSH, Good Mornings, Fazio Arms. Did not take long as conditions were going downhill and we wanted to be moving.
The Workout: After some confusion from me as I tried to remember the very simple workout I had planned, we realized why I wanted us to be over on the playground wall (I was struggling to remember my plans to work dips into the DORA). We split up and the goal was half on the run down to the entrance and back up the hill into the headwind with other half working on 100 merkins, 200 dips, 300 LBCs. We made this more of a hybrid OYO/AMRAP and just kept moving through the work and the run. Pretty sure each did 8 runs, and pretty sure combined we all did more than our share of the work.
Mary: Ended early so we could have bonus time as Kid Cracker took us through an extended session of yoga and stretch with focus on HSHM prep. Again, in the driving rain. We huddled under the playground shelter and the actual shelter is still closed for fire repair, but it made no difference.
Announcements: HSHM, collections for Brnadon and his family
Prayer: Crablegs, those working through injuries, LabRat working to get his house sold, victims of the fires in CA. YHC took us out in prayer and we headed for high ground.

Space Junk In the Sky

November 16, 2018/in Crazy Ivan /QIC: Dawgpound
PAX: Buford, Dauber, Dawgpound

The Big question was “What is the bright Star in the sky?”. Did Cletus see it too? It may have been hard with all those broke back mountains. It also looked like Flannagin was at Cletus. Did he not get the memo that today is Friday not Tuesday. Back to the Star in the sky we are not 100 percent sure what it exactly it was. After loading the Sky Walker App after the workout we still don’t know what it was. I know I shouldn’t be ending sentences with was, but ehh. I’m going to say it was a UFO.

Music Playing was Dawgpounds HSHM Mix. This includes a lot of Alternative Music. Miley Cyrus did sing “Party in the U.S.A”.

Warm Up:

Quick run around the soccer fields

The Workout:

Time Change, Recovery Runs, Extra Miles, and Picnic Tables..7 PAX got Stronger at AGS.

November 4, 2018/in Any Given Sunday /QIC: Mookie
PAX: Brexit, Dauber, Dawgpound, DoubleD, Forceps, Mookie, Skidmark

Lots of inspiring and incredible Strava updates from yesterday’s HSHM training run. If the times yesterday were any indication, there will be alot of PR bell ringing come race day. YHC was looking forward to a return to the gloom to grab some miles after a 4 week hiatus from AGS due to a nagging calf injury. Pulled up at Womble to a chilly 44 degrees to begin with some stretches. Quickly joined by Double D and Forceps, with Skidmark and the Sir Dawgpound close behind. Six 0’clock hit and began with the warm up.

Warm Up: Quick jog to the far end of the parking lot, with butt kickers and high knees to the other side. Toe walks with alternating heel walks to the midway point of the parking lot. Circled up for Imperial Walkers x10, Hillbillies x10

The Workout: 6 mi Scout Run- standard loop counter clockwise around Bass Lake and then up the trail to Sugg Farm. PAX took off from Womble at 6:05 and headed counter clock wise around the baseball fields. Made our way up Grigsby and met up with Brexit, fresh off of strong 13.1 yesterday. YHC informed the PAX earlier that he was limited to 2-3 miles (Dr’s orders) today and would go about 1.5mi out and back. PAX continued forward to the Bass Lake trail, while YHC climbed out of the greenway to meet them at the top of the Sugg Farm trail. The sun was just barely starting to rise at that point and to my surprise, a line of picnic tables occupied the open Sugg Farm field with the trail close in the distance. Ever since I started F3, I have never looked at a parking lot or picnic tables the same way. Instinctively, proceeded to the picnic tables to perform the following while waiting for PAX…

100 (10 sets of 10)Step Ups, Table Merkins X50, Dips x33

As I finished my last set of 10, Skid Mark and Double D passed by at a steady pace and made their way back to Womble up the long road out of Sugg Farm. At that point, just above the tree line, the sun began to make its way and delivered another outstanding view at AGS. Remaining PAX made their way back to Womble. Forceps proceeded forward to grab more miles en route to 10mi for the day. Great work! Also, was surprised to learn that Dauber got an earlier start this morning and helped clear the webs along the trail for PAX this morning. Thank you, Dauber.

Mary: Stretches oyo

Announcements: HSHM less than 2 weeks. U-turn next week-Standard 5 miles from Starbucks and circle backs for those looking for a few extra. Remember for the week prior to the race to hydrate…

Prayer: Dauber took us out in prayer.
