Buckets of sprints

4 attended today’s Ballroom. We headed to the football field at Pleasant Knoll. At end end zone was a bucket o HIIT-ish instructions for running such as:

Run to 30 (yard line) and sprint back
Run to 50 and walk to 100
Run to 100 (yards)

Etc

Each pax pulled a slip of pain from the bucket and we all did as instructed.

We ended up with 2.2 miles.

Back at the flag we did a few @airborne hip pain stretches.

All enjoyed and look forward to my next Q at ballroom.

Prayers for Christmas traveling: Boogie to Manhattan 🗽, Tater to Flo-rida 🐊 Harry C to Wisconsin 🧀 , me to Chuck-town.

Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast

WARMUP: Yes, it was cold and these bones don’t move without waking up the muscles and joints first.
THE THANG: BassO posted the morning after eye surgery with a plan to get some fellowship at the start and finish and walk the school campus solo in between due to an activity restriction from his doc. His plan became the perfect timing mechanism as the other 5 worked in short bursts interspersed with periods of catching up to BassO on the move. We did lots of core, lots of Moroccan Night Clubs, a sequence on the benches, and a series on the picnic tables as we traversed campus. Along the way we swapped experience and wisdom around the benefits of slowing down even as the season, the economy, and the world in general send us messages to speed up. Sawdust was a man of wisdom and humor throughout:
1. From one of his military leaders: ” Slow is smooth and smooth is fast”
2. He researched the proper form of Moroccan Night Clubs while interacting with a dual citizen from Morocco last week.
3. He skillfully pointed out that the planet in the sky Tater was asking about was “Your Anus”. Could there be a better way to start a dark, still, cold Tuesday morning?
MARY: Yes, we wore her out!
COT: Read your newsletter, then show up somewhere outside the Gloom!

Thanks for the invite Boogied Down and for keeping The Ballroom hot!
