SOFAWIB – The Double Shaft

It was a glorious morning as 11 men willing elected to participate in a workout entitled

The Double Shaft

By the time the breakfast bell rang, we had completed
– about 2 miles of running
– a whole bunch of merkins
– a lot of flutters
– a bunch of pull-ups
– an unreasonable amount of lunges

Moleskin
I needed to bring something that illustrated a counterpoint to Kirk’s let’s call it “generous” run offering from last week. Kirk hates running, so he says as he runs past you, again. #falseadvertising
“Sir Lunge-A-Lot” as Iron Mike calls it, can lead to some tender sensitive areas. And I heard someone mumble “my knees are starting to give” about 10 minutes in, and that means you weren’t BS’ing the lunges, and that’s awesome.
The team of Swiper/Bushwood lapped Caddy and I about five minutes into the lunging, so I feel pretty safe in declaring them Sultans of SWIB for the week.

Announcements
– Lots of BRR training options in South, Metro, and North. Check the twitters and site for more info.
– July 4th convergence for Area 51 at The Rock (I think).
– The workout may be going official next week, which will take all the hipster-cred off this workout. Bummer.
– Kirk is your Q for next week, followed by Bushwood and TalkBox. Anyone who wants to get on the Q schedule, give us a shout.

Thanks to Simba for setting our moral compass for the day.

I appreciate seeing repeat customers and new faces. Thanks for making us your preferred pain destination.

Ok, stole the boom box and that is not the playlist he selected. After he downloaded a copy Let It Go, he redeem himself with some Rage Against The Machine, Roots, Rick Ross, and others. He also blared Taylor Swift and Village People as we ran the mile run at the end. It was a playlist for the ages.

Next time lets hook the iPhone up to the PA system at the baseball field.

Good counterpoint. If you don’t cheat the lunges, this one is painful. Far more painful than @F3GrandStrand. And, I do hate running, just for running’s sake. I’ll remind you of that the next time I pass you

First SWIB post. Glad to get it in while it was still locally sourced small batch. And I have never even considered lunging that far. Lots of chatter on that front.
