Time is Relative

/in , /by

YHC had not done his homework and in excitement/haste had pre-blasted a start time of 5:05 EC / 5:30 ME.  Which would be fine at many of our South Wake AOs but Sheepdog has a publicized start time of 5:15 EC / 5:45 ME.  Eventually there was some mumblechatter on Slack indicating that I was a trendsetter at Sheepdog and with some indication that an early start was somewhat desired.  But…  YHC started to think about the possibility of an FNG dropping in like our newly minted Master Shake did based on the website schedule.  I didn’t want to leave a friendly new guy all alone in the gloom.  So… I walked back the messed up start time the best I could on the Facebooks and Slack.  I also committed to show up at 5:05 anyway.  Peeping Tom wanted some extra miles anyway so if someone showed up for early EC, they would find us.

ECEC:  Peeping Tom and YHC – We covered the Sheepdog EC route the best we knew it ~ 1.5 miles crossing into the neighborhood, hitting both cul-de-sacs and circling the school.  We made sure to pass the shovel flag at 5:15 (normal EC), 5:30 (messed up ME time where we caught up with Forceps), and again before 5:45 (the real deal ME time where we saw a strange shadow appear in the gloom)

         

SHREDDER!!!!

EC: Forceps joined for the last mile.

FNGs: None

Warm Up:

  • Windmill (15x)
  • Daisy Pickers (15x)
  • SSH (30x)
  • Mozy around the lot and into the soccer field.

The Workout:

YHC was inspired this week by the workouts he hadn’t made.  Specifically Purple Cobras Q’d by Warbucks where he debuted the Flat Tire (Exicon pending) and TBD where Double D broke out the Coyote Ugly.  YHC let the PAX know there was inspiration from the week but didnt specifically call out the workouts by name.  Gotta keep em guessing.  Gump did inform me that Sheepdog was known as the low-key Friday workout, no need to go too crazy…  (too bad, plan already made – tv executives… am I right?)

  • No Surrenders – Hands on your head, knee down, knee down, stand up and repeat (20x)
  • Mozy to the truck gate behind the school
  • Flat Tires (by Warbucks) – We partnered up.  One partner pushed the wheelbarrow, the other was the wheelbarrow.  The Wheelbarrow moved forward 4 “steps” before completing 1x Merkins.  The Wheelbarrow continued until they just couldnt take it any more and swapped out.  The course continued the length of the rear of the school with parnters swapping as necessary.
  • Tom had the early finishers do some Turkish Getups… Oops… That’s what I get for asking him to cover while we finish up….
  • Box Jumps  on the wall (20x with minimal no pause)
  • Coyote Uglys (thank you Double D) – Partners, 3 each.  We used the picnic tables and again assumed the Wheelbarrow.  The Wheelbarrow ascended the table on their hands completing a merkin at the seat, the table top, then again on the seat and back on the ground.  Swap until each partner gets 3 each.
  • Mozy to the front of the school.
  • Leave No Man Behind (Partnees) -1 runs the inner parking lot out front, the other holds the position,swap on the return
    • Balls to the Wall
    • People’s Chair
    • Hold Plank
  • Mozy back to the flag and the soccer field
  • Rapid Fire (No Recover)-repeat until exhausted
    • Merkins 5x
    • LBCs 5x
    • Squats 5x

Combatives: OSU – Japanese word with 1000 meanings.  Means “I will do it”, “keep pushing”, does not mean any version of quit.

Dovetail led us in some blocking moves.  Not forceful, steady flow, effortless even.  Also showed us how to pair it with an offensive punch.  Now we are ready for some bar fights.  You missed out LipSync!!!

Mary:

  • Peeping Tom led us through Fozio Arm Circles (I managed to fill the workout so he couldnt do too many Turkish Getups)

Announcements:  South Wake Picnic – Oct 12th.  Sign-up sheet on Slack for food, etc.

T-Claps (Recognition):  Crablegs and Shredder are back!!!  Thanks to 16-bit for calling out this Tclap, positive things happening in South Wake.  Nice to have our brothers back.

Prayer:  Prayers for Shredder going through the loss of his Dad.  Was nice to pray with him this morning.

Some titles need no explanation. Other ones need some clarification. If you have ever posted with Huggies then you know he has the gift for gab. Think Sliderule on crack. Tonight was far different. Everything was grandiose. His speech intense. Remember the micro machine guy. Seemed like a very logical question to ask.

Some EC by Shredder and Skidmark.

Warm Up: mosey for a mile
