TS Michael

On this day, we await remnants of Michael. Schools are closed, but for most of us it will be business as usual.

EC streak alive with Nemo, Deadbolt, 187, Pablo and Warbucks doing the standard loop

Warm Up: Jog around the soccer fields and circle up in starting lot for the usual including Good Mornings, SSH, Mt. Climbers, Fazio Arm Circles, and another set of SSH.  Shifted to some leg stretch to close it out.
The Workout: On the jog to back corner of soccer fields we stopped at top of greenway hill.  Partnered up for a brutal set.  Partner 1 was on the run to bottom of hill and back while Partner 2 was AMRAP select exercise.  We did this 5 freaking times.  Exercise order was merkins, burpees, squats, SSH and air press – this was all about pushing yourself to a limit. After each Partner completed each of the 5 exercises and 5 laps on the hill, we recovered on the jog back to the parking lot where we found the wall and alternated BTTW and dips on the bench.  5 rounds, again, working up from a 10 count to a 14 count.
Mary: Strong Plank-o-Rama, real strong
Announcements: SAS 5K, Beer Mile, HSHM shirt order
Prayer: Lab Rat house on market and preparing for move and to work with his family business leading sales for Oyster Farm, all those impacted by Michael and still recovering from Florence, all our brothers through unspoken prayer.  YHC took us out.

There’s no John like home…

Warm Up: Fozio arm circles (Dog Pound’s unexpected choice) 10 forward / 10 back, high knees, Good Mornings (Dog Pound’s expected choice), Side Straddle Hops

The Workout: SURPRISE!!!  We ran!!!  Unsurprisingly we continued our study of the 5ish miles of hills provided by Crossway.  Shredder enlightened us that we would be running fairly close to his house.  I asked if he had a full coffee pot he might like to share.  He chuckled and reminded us all that he had a John we could utilize if necessary.  Good looking out Shredder, there are really only the Johns that nature intended on Crossway – I’m sure Salsa may have utilized those facilities.  Its just the same since Lipstick opted to stay close to his home and with his own John this morning (Q!).  Just like the aptly named Skidmark who also decided to stay close to his personal John during our Crossway session in the gloom (Skid had texted the day before to vote for a little Crossway action – I’d call that an HC).  Tsk Tsk Fartsackers 😛

All in good fun gentleman – see you out there next week!

Mary: Sorry Mary…  We’re pooped

Announcements:

Shredder has APE Defense course on the 14th, it’s on the Facebooks and donations go to a good cause – https://m.signupgenius.com/#!/showSignUp/20f0d4ea5ae2da4fc1-apedefense

CBC Beer Mile is happening, post on the Facebooks from Wrangler asking for who is participating.  Should be a good group of F3-ers there, come join us!

Prayer:

Casen Whitebread – Keep this HSHS student and cross country runner in your prayers as she battles cancer.  Shredder’s event will benefit her cause.

Dog Pound’s mother-in-law has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer.  His wife is trying to get up to PA to support her.  Keep them in your thoughts.
