Strong work by all. The Brayden hill is unforgiving.

NMM
Olaf’s prayer hit me right between the eyes. He dropped a timely prayer request after a weekend of distracted parenting. How much presence would my kids perceive that I give, if I asked them? Am I giving them all of me, or only some of me?

Thanks for the tap today, Badlands.

Punch List out.

Leadership in the six

Leave a comment

WARMUP: STL has no warmup, well, ran to the purply lights in the daycare parking lot
THE THANG: 21’s because the first exercise SUCKS. 20 werewolf pushups in the parking lot, run down to the end of the school parking lots and do the little loop with 1 dip. Repeat until time is up.

Yes, there is NO WAY that you could finish all 20 rounds in 45 minutes, it’s a .9 mile loop. So the big exercise had to suck, and the second exercise had to be insultingly easy. lol

I very much designed this to get lapped once, possibly twice, but still see friendly faces huffing and puffing as we charged forth.
MARY: 90 seconds of flutters

Longest 11 ever

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Merkins, Downdog
THE THANG:
Mosey to the school for a round of 11’s.
Breakdance merkins(double count) on one side.
Crunchy frogs(in cadence) on the other side.
Distance between points was approximately 0.2mi.
No one got through all 11. Maybe it was too far?

Thanks for the opportunity to come run with the high performance HIM’s of the Fort. I’m always impressed by the showing and the effort laid down.
