YHC hit the fartsack last night with an irritated eye.  I hoped that a good 5 hour nights sleep would cure this.  YHC woke a little early for Extra credit (4am) and right eye pain was killing me.  A quick trip to Harris Teeter to waste some money on eye drops that did nothing.  Well… I figured I was going to be in eye pain anyway – so why not take my mind off it with some total body pain.  I said screw it – lets post.

This morning, I was celebrating 4 years of F3.  It took about 18 months of emotional headlocking for Chase (Gnard Dogg) to convince me to try my first workout at Womble Park.  I will never forget this workout – Key West was my Q and I think Peak Week, Blue Hen, Moby, New Mexico and Howard were all there to name me.  I did not think I would make it through without quitting.  I remember doing a jacobs ladder with burpees in the baseball outfield.  This morning, I wanted to celebrate with one of my best memories of a hard ass workout.  The Bearway to heaven.

About 7-8 gathered for EC to hear me bitch about my eye.  None of that matters as 5:15a hit and we were off.  We did about 2 miles with many doing a little more as they circled back to get the 6 (YHC).  We had 187 and Skid Mark even join us AFTER their Murph (BEAST)

PAX:

Warm Up:

Grab the official Southwake Shovel Flag (T Claps to Howard for making it and entrusting me with it) and head to the large field to circle up for warm ups.  We had WAAAAY more pax than I anticipated.  Someone ran by me an said – “were you planning on 40” – I remember thinking – I am barely hear and can barely see out of my right eye 🙂

Anyway – we circled up

  • SSH x 20
  • Good Mornings x 15
  • Standard Merkins x 20

  • We had 20+ in each group so it took nearly 1.75 laps to get it done.
