The elusive albino deer

FNGs: none
Warm Up: SSH, IW, DP’s, Good morning
The Workout: 4 ruckers  + a 2.0 took off for a 3 mile route and some weight based walking.  23 ran 5+ through the Springs this am, with a trip up Elm and a short jaunt on Johnson.  A late pick up of Vasoline and a new route finally gave him the spotting of the elusive albino deer.  Now the real question must be answered…what’s Vasoline searching for now?  An albino racoon, possum, beaver?  Nice work today gents!

Like a Box of Chocolates

FNGs: None

Warm Up:  Seven PAX showed up after a pre-blast of sweets and sweat.   Jog around parking deck; circle up by chair and mystery Valentine’s Day heart shaped box and executed the following exercises:  25 SSH, 10 Daisy pickers, 10 Don Quixotes, 10 O/H claps, 10 seal claps.

The Workout:  PAX counted off and then paired up.  Dauber went solo with an odd number of PAX.  Each PAX went to the box of “chocolates “ and pulled out a card.  15 Cards total.  Two exercises on each card:  an exercise for KB and another one.  Lots of mumble-chatter initially but it soon quieted down.  High-tempo workout for sure – everyone kept moving the entire time.

 

Mary:  No time left on the clock for her.

Announcements:  ATT run, need support with water via bike (see Slack)

T-Claps (Recognition):  First timers to Crazy Ivan (Snap?, Sassy, Noah’s Ark and LipSync)

U-Turn 9/28/19 Better late than never

FNG’s: None
PAX: Gump, Warbucks, Yogurt, Cupid, Redenbacher, AxE, Alpine, Slide Rule, Dauber, Banjo, Sassy, H1N1, Oyster, Tonka, Peeping Tom, Brexit, Double D, Emeril, Blue Hen, Bulls Eye, Dahmer

Warm Up: Side Straddle Hops, Butt Kickers, Some Stretching

Lots of options going on, several for 3, 5, and 6. Sightings of Lipstick, SkidMark, and 187 as they were getting 3 hours or 16 miles or something (heard UTI was out there but never saw him so no credit given).

Big Turn-out and tested my abilities on remembering names as there was no count off, no nameorama, no Mary, and No Cot. I should be banned for life from the Q list!
So sorry if I missed anyone, let me know and I will add you to the list, and if I gave someone credit that wasn’t there…well…you probably earned it anyway. And as always there was a great 2nd F afterwards!

Always Tape Your Nipples…#Meateater

FNGs: None
Warm Up: SSH x20, High Knees, Wide Knees, High Knees, Butt Kickers, Daisy Pickers x10, Frankenstein x10, Stretching
The Workout: The U-Turn. Nothing Fancy, well, except for some conversation into mile 2. Bits and pieces were picked up by YHC from the PAX just ahead but what I picked up was that @Aquaman is a Meat eater… I’ll leave that right there.  Little did we know that @Redenbacher was having a DNA retention issue. The pictures explain it all, but maybe @Aquaman smelled blood in the air??

Reminder: Always tape your nips.

Mary:

Prayer: All PAX recovering from injuries, please try and make sure you reach out to those who aren’t posting and on IR. Keep your shield lock strong!

Got any good CDs?

20+ Pax showed up for some miles this morning. Many ECers, so I won’t try to credit everyone. Some started with us, others ended with the group. Good work out there! Lipstick was the lucky winner of the door prize, a copy of Freed to Lead, given to YHC by Deadbolt. Lipstick agreed to read it and pass it along to another Pax soon. Definitely a good read.

Mary: I’m gonna miss her the most at R4TJ (Is this Mary? ^^^)

Announcements:

  • It was previously announced (I believe) but it was re-iterated that R4TJ has been extended to 1 hour to accommodate a min. 5 mile workout option.
  • COT has been brought to the beginning of the workout to silence the controversy.
    • Bonus – we arent sweaty and tired for announcements and prayers
    • Bonus – we get a headcount first for safety purposes
    • Bonus – we get to hear about planned modifications or the need to leave early
    • Bonus – If YHC takes us out you could actually touch him (not bonus?)
    • Bonus – I got to say Bonus like 7 times in this back blast (Annoying BackBlast Achievement!)
  • CELEBRATE!!! R4TJ has completed one full trip around the sun.
    • Although we know you all really want Lipstick and I to be R4TJ site Qs forever – with our witty banter and cunning ability to find new places to SH!T – we have decided to step down (The track plays: Awwwww)
    • Stepping up as R4TJ Site Q is our very own Redenbacher.  This guy has been accelerating all over the place and has become a fixture at R4TJ.  Lipstick and I said his name in unison as we thought about who should take over.  Welcome aboard big RED, we’ve got your desk all setup!!!
