Skipping to the John
EC: Boy George and UTI grabbed 2 miles on the EC route (you may know it from Paradise City EC)
Warm Up: We went through some dynamic stretching starting with the very difficult and dreaded: WALK. Walking away from the start of the run, we warmed the legs and made some space for some Butt Kicks, followed by Karaokes, SKIPPING!!!!, and finalized the warm-up with some lunges with a twist. END WARM UP
The Workout: The main event was a modified and simplified running route. There is this whole thing about not leaving the 6 behind or losing people or something… 😛
This week we turned right once we left Ting and went straight down Main/55. We had some folks returning for the 6 and continuing on past town Hall, turning back for Ting just after the Car Wash. A bonus Port-o-John was spotted which reassured us we were on the right route and that all was right with the world. From here, this is where we basically be followed the return route of the Holly Springs Half Marathon the all of the way back to Ting. There were some slight modifications near the end following a reverse of the typical Paradise City EC route. Extra miles, extra hills, extra FUN!!! 4.7+ miles of it!!!
Announcements: Derek Davis 5k this weekend, keep an eye out for Lipstick, 187, and the shovel flag. A post will likely hit the Facebooks, F3 Camp is also still happening this weekend – spots still available,
Prayer: Brandon, friend of Peak Week and Roger Roger, was placed in a coma to overcome some of his injuries incurred from an accident on the water. Chips mentioned a young boy Dawson that needed our prayers, he sustained a concussion and was under observation in the hospital. I checked in with Chips tonight and it sounds like he is home and doing much better.
Bricks and Bullfrogs
Warm Up:
Jog around parking lot. SSH, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Merkins
The Workout:
2 Men posted to Nut Cracker today for a Dora (100 merkins, 200 LBC, 300 Squats split between partners). Man running held bricks overhead while his partner did the exercises and vice versa. One round of bullfrogs since Emeril posted and its his favorite exercise. Once the bullfrogs had no more hop in them we wheel barrowed the rest of the way. Finished up with four laps of broke back derkins. Partners carried bricks and exchanged them every time they met in the middle along with each man doing 15 derkins on his partners back.

First AO, First run to the John, literally
AO: “Running 4 the John” We had some great ideas on the name of the AO. Thanks to Emeril we solidified (although we can’t confirm it was a solid) the name with an early exit before COT. I never seen someone run so fast to the finish and peel out George Costanza style with his shirt off 🙂 Actually wait….there was that time at PC and a certain mathematician
EC: Skidmark and UTI
Warm Up: Leg and Arm stretching
The Workout: Running! 5-6 mile run depending on pace. The route was thru Bridgewater to Veteran’s Park, Jones Park and back down Cayman to Bridgewater. A few wrong turns but we will learn our routes over time.
