Dump or Super Bowl – Both Stunk

/in /by

22 Pax gathered in the smelliest part of Holly Springs for a Monday morning beatdown. Q was a little upset with the result so made sure to take it out on the Pax. Very few Pats fans showed up but I doubt they could handle it anyway.

EC: 187, Cowboy, Crosby, UTI, Full House, Pablo, Pikachu, Dawgpound, Skidmark

Warm Up: Mosey for one loop with stops to do Good Mornings, SSH, and Windmills. Once back at the court Pax paired up by ability and speed. It was only logical that Dawgpound requested to be Lucky’s partner. Somebody needed to make sure we gave Lucky a push. Kudos DP.

The Workout: Catch me if you can partner runs. 1st loop 2 Double Merkin Burpees. 2nd loop around 3 squat jumps. 3rd time around 5 merkins. Once at the end circle back for the 6 doing 5 LBCs.

Mosey to the ramp for some 7’s. Reverse merkins at the bottom and star jumps halfway up the ramp.

Mary: Merkin clock with stops at 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 12.

Announcements: See Pikachu’s announcements on FB and Slack. Nothing new.

Prayer: Shredder, Dumbo, Brexit, Emeril

No Extra Time for You!

Ice Ice Baby

/in /by

If you ever have a chance to run Neuse River Trail it is worth the drive.

4 pax converged on Neuse River Trail for a 7 am start but one pax but in the wrong directions and there was a slight detour.

There was some quick mumble chatter and we set off with all the essentials: tailwind, goo, protein bars, gloves, hats, etc..

A little chilly for the run but no wind. We headed south on the trail for a few miles. 1st ice patch up and skidmark got some wet feet trying to avoid a trail wide sheet of ice.  After about 2 miles quick stop for a COT and so skidmark could defrost his camelback. Hose froze and he couldn’t get any nutrition. One pax pissed at this time.

Continued to mosey down the trail to mile 5 for a turn around. Again a quick COT so skidmark could defrost his camelback and two pax could piss.

Nice mosey back to the start where Double D left after 10 miles and skidmark, pikachu, and 187 could last little bit of 12 miles.

Well, way more ice patches along the way. Luckily no one busted their ass. Last 12 were pretty uneventful. Nice little grind coming in to the parking lot.

It’s funny how your body rejects walking after 22 miles. Like WTF are you doing g this for. All good for 22 miles then you start walking and your calves go to shit.

Some a have a nice days in the parking lot with a foam roller next to a used condom (not ours). Lots of recovery time as we popped pills, drank, and moaned in pain. Lots of good conversation.

Off to Starbucks. Leg cramps! A quick coffee. Skidmark had to steal someone’s water or we would still be waiting there. Fuck you Alan! I ran 22 miles today. You walked you ass in from the parking lot. I’m taking this water Alan.

5 weeks!
