WARMUP: guessing who was getting extra credit
THE THANG: running mostly
MARY: various shenanigans and rounding off runs
ANNOUNCEMENTS: heart walk thing, talk to Sasquatch, everybody will be there
COT: coffee at Panera

6@6 is an AO, it’s starts at 6 on Sat, we typically shoot a pre-video at the start and include the rest of the proper COT stuff at the end. We will credit early and late starts from Panera, assuming we know you exist.

All other videos and use of the name is purely shenanigans.

Link street on my heart

Leave a comment

Written by DOAH in slack: [commentary by Band Camp]

Heart Breakers: @U01NGHPR2HW and almost @U05TY21AC2X, but he uncommitted sometime last night…

The Thang: Route attached [was attached in slack, you could look up today's date on a PAX's Strava. Suffice it to say: we hit 3 miles. FMPD slow rolled our start this morning which kept YHC from running directly where I planned to go, but we made it over there another way. No complaints]. We stopped a lot and did a lot [5 each stop] of 6-Count burpees (a BC staple), [10] merkins, [15] squats, [20] flutters, with a few LBCs thrown in for bad measure. [We did an undetermined amount of these based on keeping the group together enough so nobody got lost. Kept things in cadence because that seems to help keep men accountable to actually doing the exercises. Something about pushing through pain and discomfort together. Started with just burpees. Next stop: burpees & merkins, etc.]

Moleskine: Sweat. Plenty of sweat. And some ramblings that implied some very limited understanding of the functional success of certain systems. Regardless, we went fast and didn't lose anyone along the way… except Slash… but he was lost by choice. Uptown Girl is still greatly disturbed by my presence and refused even so much as a fist bump this morning, but like a lot of folks who hate me when they first meet me (that list is long, right Crystal Lake?), I'll wear him down eventually.

COT: The Fort’tan gave a good thought about acting on those things that we feel called to do and not delaying. Prayers for EC as he heads off to get his head shaved and his spine straightened, and prayers for NASA as he sends his little bird out of the nest.

[Here's the deal. God doesn't put things on your heart for someone else to do it. Go get after it.]

WARMUP: Run a bit in the Sweep parking lot then a few warm up exercises: 10 Lunges each leg, 10 Mountain Climbers I/C, 10 Carolina Dry Docks, 10 Mak Tar Jah
THE THANG: The "theme" this morning, albeit unspoken, was to run to a spot and do the work. In some cases, we'd repeat it and in others, it was a one-and-done. I know, novel idea.
Exit the lot, run to Dave Gibson and turn left onto Dave Gibson's, stopping at the bottom of the hill.

10 Mountain Climbers I/C
10 Carolina Dry Docks

When all finish the final run, run up opposite hill to the realty office. Perform:
10 Hand-Release Merkins
10 V-Ups
10 Shoulder taps (ea side)
10 Jump Lunges
Run back down then up to Ben Casey Dr.
10 Hand-Release Merkins

10 Shoulder taps (ea side)
10 Jump Lunges
Run to Discount Tire

10 Burpees
Run through the neighborhood and down to the bottom of Brayden Parkway
15 Squats & 15 Hand-Release Merkins
Run to the top of Brayden Parkway for 5 Burpees
Wrap it up at COT for some additional Mary.

I leave it to 38 Special to verify the accuracy of my reporting.
