6 for 0458 pre – pre run-

m4l,dumbo,Pablo, Pac man, Yoda, Borland, dr Quinn, daddy, Red Sea , el Duce, kankles, crab, paint by number, buddy the elf(coffee on site), gashia, snot rocket, katadin ( missing few- Borland needs to tighten up)

ssh,chatter by Borland/Yoda- 5burpees oyo,run 2 otherside of parking lot morocon night club/25 merkins, more chatter- Borland not in proper form caused yhc to stay in plank and perform 20 niplers and 15 slow merkins. Now 3 clowns from southwake had traveled and decided to join yhc, and wanted to make the workout good and keep few loud guys in check/ fun and exciting
The Workout:loved the sharknado – start on one end of parking lot doing 15 burpees/ 15 merkins/ 15 lbc/ and 15 scorpion each leg dry docks – yhc likes pax to pair in 4/5 as a paki run for accountability and pax tend to push each other more so than just running oyo- few times it was heard by Yoda, #wwd, we are warming up

thang-2- just for Brett (katadin)- yhc asked dr.Quinn to lead us to bowl of Death Valley. Thx only chose 1/2 of bowl still staying in paki run doing 7’s- 6 Turkish Getty ups at the bottom and 1 squat on top, as the pax continued – site Q was reminded to block the road since this road was heavily travelled .. nice to see el douche / Pac man / dumbo to name the few pushing the rocks up the hill.  Once we finished, Borland called some Ab exersices while we waited on the 6th.

5 PAX for Fire Water and Hills at Any Given Sunday

Armed with 2 bottles of water, 51 degree weather, and a bundled Midget co-pilot, YHC’s clown car rolled out of the Wescott sub-division and shortly onto Holly Springs Road, where we saw a swift moving figure in the form of Brexit getting some extra miles onto what would be a run that boasted one of the most amazing Sunrises in 6 months. Fall is definitely here and the air was brisk this morning. A welcomed change to the humidity we’ve had to endure on these Sunday runs.

As Midget and YHC stretched, Lipstick joined the party along with LED fresh off of some early miles. We were soon joined by Brexit. 6:30am hit and off we started with the warm up.

Warm Up: Light jog to the far end of the lot and back up to the other side. Continued with light jog back with alternating Frankensteins and Butt Kickers, and light jog. Carioca back left to right, right to left.

The Workout: After missing the past few week’s runs due to injury and in need of some HSHM training, YHC made the decision to construct the same route as last week, counter-clockwise around the the lake with the exit route through Sugg Farm instead of the greenway. Any Given Sunday started 30 minutes later due to sunrise timing, and this morning’s view did not disappoint.

Inspired by the previous evening’s Beer Mile, PAX took off from Womble commenting and trying to fathom how on earth #BrewTangClan pulled off an almost sub-5 mile and 4 beers…Seriously, who does that? 187, Bernie, Pilgrim, Sassy- y’all are #Beasts..

The late 6:30am start time was perfect for a lakeside sunrise this morning on the exit pass around the lake. The reflection of that sunrise made the water look as if it was set on fire and was perfect foreshadowing for the fire that was about to to ignite in YHC’s thighs as he made a familiar and yet unfavorable trek up the backside of Sugg Farm. With every decision comes consequences. Special thanks to Midget for picking up the six as we made it through the farm back onto Grigsby, where we were rejoined with Brexit, who decided to take the greenway route from the lake. Lipstick then approached a half mile later to pick up the six, and shared that he may or may not have left a trademark ‘Running for the John’ souvenir off the Sugg Trail. PAX made the final push to Womble and circled up for final stretches and an abbreviated COT

Mary: Varying calf, quad, hamstring stetches

Announcements: CSAUP next weekend

Prayer: Prayers for continued health this week for PAX and families.
