Holy Crap, I almost stepped on a snake.

I rolled in to the parking lot with 10 minutes to spare. Two vehicles already in the parking lot. I was greeted by Boo Boo and Fanta. Got everything ready and a sighting by M4life. He was going to run with Lipton. Abe rolled in next. We hit the red trail first.  Midway through Boo Boo said something…and the way he did, I just broke camp and ran along with the rest of the PAX. He almost stepped on a snake that was trying to soak up a little heat off of the asphalt. We went back to investigate a little closer and it was a rat snake. This brought on a whole new meaning of being alert the rest of the way.

We Got Geriatrics on this Wall

YHC was fired up to Q after the return from BRR where I learned to hate running even less. With somewhat of a last minute decision to Q today, YHC decided to add an extra mile to the EC stroll this morning to ponder what we’d get into.  It was a beautiful morning for running, with the air finally easier to breathe. On my travels, YHC came up with this…

FNG’s: nope

Warm-Up: SSH x 40, Good Mornings, Hillbillies, Squatted Seal Claps x 15 each.  Mosey to the far end parking lot.
The Workout: 11’s.  Went between the end of the parking lot until about the center speed bump. We did Sumo Squat Jumps And Standard Merkins on the ends.

We then moseyed to the picnic shelter. We split into two groups. 1 group held Balls to the Wall while the other group did 1/3 count Jack Webb’s up to a 10 count.  Groups switch. Then…rinse and repeat.

Onto DORA. Partner runs loop around other shelter and back while partners work together to complete 100 irkins, 200 Freddie Mercury’s, and 300 squats.  Strong effort put in by all pax as we finished quite quickly.

So… more Wall work. This time it was 1 group doing People’s Chair while others did 25 count Dips. Switch groups. At this point, Sprinkler commented something about a lot of Wall work considering the presence of so many geriatrics…RESPECT! We repeated the above twice.
Mary: 15 counts of LBC, LSF, Homer to Marge, Pickle Pounders, Chill-Cut hold, Dying Cockroach. Finished with 10 burpees OYO.
Announcements: Mulch Sign Up. Sunday Hilltop Needmore Ruck will be Adopt A Highway cleanup Q’d By LED.
