Two Headed Blood Moon Gopher

With Cheese Curd on the IR with the Cheese Crud, and Stage Coach on the DR in the Gateway City, #BattleCat springed/sprang/sprung to action as substi-Q. Twenty-one pax took a draw from the Full Bold Flavor of Death Valley gloom.

Partner up by speed and/or headlamp and head out in search of the Blood Moon Gopher:

Down the gopher-holed gravel road to the rails
10 rail jumps (or squats for modifiers)
15 dips at bleachers
Run to concession area
10 burpees per pex

Lunge walk length of bleachers
Run to far turn

10 squat jumps

One loop complete. Stay with partner, Repeato until time called. Most pax finished 2.5 to 3 loops.

COT

MOLESKINE

Since we won’t see him again until the warmer months, a nod to 49er who first brought the Gopher to DV. I tweaked it a little by adding the partner requirement, which may or may not have worked depending on your partner’s speed and/or gastrointestinal urgency. The shower of FEBApplause in the COT was deafening.
Kotters to Bugle Boy, who after his initial two posts took as many weeks to convalesce. Good to have you back, our dungareed friend. We promise not to pair you with Spackler again.
Not sure where Purple Haze went. He was with us, then he wasn’t.
All the running is coming home to roost in the Turkey Barn. It seems Turkey Leg is moving this Friday and is soliciting help from the Meathead community to move everything heavier than a lampshade or duvet cover. If that strikes your fancy, he’d like to have a word with you.
