DMZ BB – 1 man left behind

22ish posted for another session of DMZ. Site Q, Bushwood, was at home nursing an “IT band.” Orlando ran in, as usual, with 6 seconds to spare.

Thang:

At 5:31, Kirk claimed that he invited a FNG who he swore was coming. We tweaked the plan by circling up in the parking lot. SSH X 20, Merkin X 12, Imperial Walker X 20, Over/Under X 20. Still no sign of Kirk’s imaginary friend so we left. Kirk’s indecision to stay or go was palpable.

We ran to Kingswood, stopping at each street on the right for a merkinfest.

12 Merkins…12 Diamonds…12 Wide-arms, 20 Freddies…12 Stagger Rights, 20 Freddies…12 Stagger Lefts, 20 Freddies…We arrive.

We *insert skateboard verbiage* into the halfpipe. Partner up. A goes right and at top, 5 burpees. B goes left and at top 7 diamond merkins. Meet in the pipe, 10 handslap merkins X 5.

**Omaha from 7 to 10 diamond merkins for timing purposes.**

Mary to wait. Run over the hill and through the woods for peaks/valleys. At valleys, 10 jump lunges (10 each leg), at peaks, 20 russian twists.

Run home, stopping at the same streets for the same awful merkinfest.

At COP, 12 burpees OYO.

Shirtless moleskin:

Tank tops are back. Stock up while you can.

Agony’s head scarf was odd and confusing. Coupled with his long socks, very short shorts, Princeton Running Club tank top, and Jesus fish necklace, it was a site to behold.

SemiGloss crushed the burpees Spackler style. He was shirt off by COT and laying down.

Kirk should have stayed…Phillip (FNG – Plan B) arrived at 5:35. He spent 5:35-6:15 exploring the neighborhoods of South Charlotte looking for Kirk. T-Claps for not driving home and mailing it in Plan B. Come back out and we’ll see you in the gloom.

Run Stopper insists his Twitter handle is logical and easy to locate. False. This just in that he can be found @CarrySwan. Look for the “I Know What You Did Last Summer” mask as his profile pic and you’ll know it’s him.

There was a report of 2.8 miles covered and 4.3 miles covered. Who knew that Garmin satellites could be inconclusive?

Thanks to Agony for the take out and for praying for the QC.

BRR 2017 is coming. Start running a lot now. Ragnar is coming in a couple weeks so there’s that.

Minor corrections:

It was 0529, and I was trying to get a sense of which way the group was heading, planning to wait solo and catch up. At 0533ish, when we finally left the parking lot, I thought maybe he wasn’t going to show. Almost turned back at Tufton Brae…almost.

Also, one would “drop” into a halfpipe #millennial.

Other notes: Swiper’s internal robotic cadence must have been upgraded over the weekend, as all merkins were of the speed variety. He / Cold Cuts and Agony / One Eye (think) were several lengths out front of the field. Bugeater finally pushed the “injured” label out of his head, going from 6 to the front on the final couple of sprints. Runstopper made an extra half trip for more burpees. Pothole also ran in. Agony claims there was no laughing at his crazy, mixed up, muddled up “outfit”, but YHC at least was pointing and laughing pre-launch. Bizzare is an understatement. Want Ad made his quarterly trek south. He wanted no part of partnering with SG, who YHC will attest completed roughly 2/3 of the hand slap merkins (home scoring). YHC quite worried partner derkins were in order #heavylegs.

Oh, Cold Cuts has the Q at SOFA tomorrow.

IT Bands are legit. If I have to drop from Ragnar, I know Swiper will pick up my 16 miles with ease.

Does Agony ever where normal clothes?
