DMZ BB – BRR Recon
In an effort to further recon of the BRR training opportunities in and around this AO, we went off campus and zero’d in on a sleepy hill/street in Royden. @VisionQuest whispered something about a SadClown warmup run with his imaginary friend Bushwood. He was panting before we even started. Here’s what we did:
The Thang:
Run to CAC, Evangelical Free might I add, for warm up:
18 SSH, 12 Merkins, Mary (yes, Mary during warmups)
Partner up, head west on Carmel. At every street on the right, do 10 diamonds, 20 merkins, 30 squats, 40 LBCs.
At Royden, every other driveway on the left, do 20 merkins.
At Sleepy Hollow Hill, the call was 11s to start (with partners) – dumbocrats at the bottom, 4 count over/unders at the top. On our first descent, reality set in and 11s quickly became 9s. Run out – 15 knee ups at every other driveway (now on the right).
10/20/30/40 at the same streets on the left. AYG back to COT.
Moleskin:
3 mi (or so) covered, according to Talk Box. Strong work by all today. Big Willy was muscling through what appeared to be pure agony. T-Claps for the hard work brother. Kirk pushed YHC, per usual, and defied his hatred for running by sprinting the Chinese Downhill out of CAC. Iron Mike kept his shirt on (until COT). TR made a special guest appearance (glad to have you brother). Run Stopper kept flexing without a shirt on “for the ladies” though clearly there were no ladies around…weird. Nobody asked for their deposit back this morning so everyone received at least something by COT.
Southern Discomfort (A51 version of The Goat) – 8/1, Ballantyne (multiple options for distance). Check the website.
Haywoodstock – Booty Loop party at Haywood’s house this Friday, starts at 6:30. Check the website.
Always a pleasure to Q at DMZ. Thank you all for the opportunity and the generous 10 counts.

Site FNG post for (K)nightrider – sp? – who joined Margo (2nd DMZ post).
11s were an “aggressive” call on the dumbocrats. You failed to give proper t-claps to TR and Runstopper for running back to the six after the 9s, while the rest of us were standing around, possibly trying not to pass out after one last sprint up the hill.
Haywoodstock – it’d be great to have some A51 guys out for an awesome, family friendly event benefitting the F3 Foundation. FREE food and beer – though a donation to the foundation is encouraged.
