Usual warm-up type stuff. Windmills, merkins, that kind of stuff…
THE THANG:
First we pulled up behind the Greek place for a <@U01FDRQSQG3> and <@U0603USPHAS> favorite, some chair work. These freaking chairs weigh at least 55-60 pounds. And they’re awkward. Terrible. Did some overhead presses, maybe something else… I don’t really remember.
Then we ran it down to the parking deck at Red Ventures. Stopped at some light poles on the way down. Ran up and down the deck and the stairs and such. It was a real nice time.

COT: fifth core principal… Expanded into 30 minutes!
NASA asked me to Q Minnow Pond about a month ago and I accepted forgetting that I had Lake Haigler 12 hour 2 days afterwards. The plan was to take the Minnows to the trails and get some miles there but that will have to wait for another time to do that. It had rained the night before and there were a lot of leaves on the trails. Didn’t want someone to do a Superman like Dark Helmet did last time I Q’d here.
Took the fellas to Harris Street Park and as Strava describes it Harris Street Hell Hills. It’s almost a mile to the park from Veterans Park so keep that in mind for future Q’s.
We did hill repeats each way with 10 hand release merkins at the middle, 10 monkey Humpers at top of one side Harris Street and 10 Sumo Squats at Harris/21 Hill. Most got close to 4 miles total.
Had a group of guys carrying around fancy book bags filled with styrofoam peanuts and a few had actual weights in them. Maximus,Rebound,Dark Helmet,Farmers Only,Spider-Man, Crystal Lake, Wooden Leg and Anchorman all rucked I’ll let you decide who had peanuts and who had weight.
