Temps are rising and so are the numbers posting at The Coop. Finished the Pre-Coop warm-up run with a few minutes to spare and PAX were already circling up.
No FNGs, so short disclaimer which included the warning that I didn’t really come equipped with a plan which usually mean that it’s about to turn into bad news for the PAX.

Warm-up with a short mosey around the lot, then some dynamic streching.
Follow that up with WM, SSH, IW, MC, CCD, Merkins.

After trying to plan a good routine the night before, nothing creative was really materializing. I had thought to work in some new “toys” I had recently acquired, but that wasn’t coming together either. Finally, I left it up to work out during the pre-run. That didn’t really happen either as friendly pace with Sasquatch means between 7:30 and 8:00 min/miles (that guy is a machine). Finally after warming up it really came to me.

For having no plan, it turned into a decent days workout. What an awesome group of guys. I love to Q at the Coop! Mostly because of the close proximity to the casa, but also for the options and the PAX that are regulars here, in particular Skate or Die, MacGyver, Sasquatch, and now Shelby. Opie’s hours must have changed, so now he’s returned to the fold and it’s great to hear him as we go along. Not too many 10 counts with these guys, and usually it’s for my benefit. As much as I love to pick myself to Q I also love to pass the staff to others and see their ideas and give them the opportunity to lead from the front.
