Rolling 14 Deep Through Holly Springs

/in /by

I wasn’t sure how many PAX would show for U-Turn with 25 degree weather @ 6am.  I noticed 5 HC’s Friday evening and figured a few more would show but 14 is STRONG considering how many of these PAX are posting on weekdays, have families, have exhausting careers, etc., etc, and of course the cold a$$ weather.  There were also another 5 PAX that either ran EC or went on a 9-mile run beginning at U-Turn as well (@Lipstick, @Skidmark, @Maybelline, @Katniss, @FullHouse, @187).  For the most part, the 6am U-Turn crew stayed together throughout the run and also afterwards at Panera for 2nd F.  Man did we own those streets rolling 14 deep through Holly Springs.

FNGs: none today

Warm Up: quick parking-lot mosey to get the blood flowing, 20-seconds Michael Phelps, 10x Good Mornings, 10x Daisy Pickers, 10x Frankensteins, 10x Imperial Walkers, 10x Hilly Billy’s, 25-30 Merkins

The Workout: 6mi total: exit Panera, L on Grand Hill Place towards Target, L on New Hill Rd, R on Irving Pkwy, L on GreenOaks Pkwy, crossover Hwy 55 onto Ballentine St., R on Elm Ave, R on Grigsby to the backside of Womble, cut through softball fields to tennis courts, L on Stinson, R on Grigsby, R on Raleigh St, L on Holly Springs Rd, crossover Hwy 55 to New Hill Rd, R on Grand Hill Place, and back to Panera.

Mary: no time today

Announcements: Kettle Bell Snatch Challenge begins Monday, @Fanny Pack hosting 2021 1stF leadership and planning session Monday night 8pm-9pm

T-Claps (Recognition): all U-Turn PAX that got 6+ miles in prior, during, post ME

Prayer: comfort and strength for Lipstick and his family for the loss of his Aunt.  Dumbo took us out with another great prayer and I believe this is the 3rd week he’s taken us out @ U-Turn in a row

Evolution of Man Race… Sort of…

/in /by

PAX: Lawn Dart, Bondo, Pikachu, Skidmark, UTI, Emeril, Full House, Dumbo, Lipstick, Snap
Warm Up: Mosey around the lower parking lot and head to the basketball courts for SSH, hillbillies, windmills, daisy pickers, Fazio, Frankensteins, and goofballs
The Workout:

Broke into teams and did two laps of modified scout runs.  Scout sprinted as far as he wanted and dropped down to do mountain climbers until the rest of the group caught up.

Did the evolution of human race in the lower parking lot.  Did an exercise from one row of parking space to the next.  The exercises were bear crawls, duck walks, lunges, hops, and run to the end.  As soon as you got to one end, a team member repeated the set of exercises coming back.  It was harder than I though it would be so the focus for most seemed to be just getting through it more than competing for speed.  It took longer than expected so the planned punishment for the losers never happened.

Instead, we finished the workout with 4 corners.  At each corner, we started the exercise and waited for the 6 to be in before doing another 10-count.  Exercises included balls to the wall, wall sit, and dips.

Mary: Emeril didn’t want to get wet so we did plank exercises until the bell: shoulder taps, one arm holds, mountain climbers, and nipplers.
Announcements: Something about upcoming Q’s?
Prayer:  Lipstick’s aunt passed away over the weekend, prayers for the whole family

Warm Up: Everyone shows up ready to get after it at the John.

The Workout: It had been awhile since we went out and back on Crossway so I decided today was a great day to make our return.

And the tea bagger is born…

/in /by

The Workout: 8 HIM out this morning for some miles on what appeared to be a familiar route, the big dipper.  Only to be side tracked down Grigsby to Elm and back to 55.  Little did we know a yuge tea bag was formed.  Nice work by all, Lipstick was missing, apparently his johnson sock must have been in the laundry.
Prayer: Praise that Tracey Bailey is doing better, prayers for all of those with COVID and recovering.
