ExLax was not much on witty banter. Workout started a bit rough with 28 of South Charlotte’s finest lined up and ready to go. ExLax gave some type of disclaimer and then said something like “I haven’t really been out in a while…but here goes.” A bit choppy on the cadence and then off for the obligatory mosey. And then ExLax dropped the hammer. KBs followed by a brutal 1/4 mile lap…over and over. Lots of rabbits out there, thanks to Stone Cold for pushing the pace on the hill. Always great to see Runstopper looking good in the tights. Hops trying to rally the troops for the Cubbies. Remember, Skunkworks is not just KBs, expect some mileage. And if that’s not enough, show up at 5am for a 3 mile pre-run with Fletch. Pop Tart on lead for next week. Well done today!

Thank you for leading this morning Exlax. Great mix of hard running and strength training – the MO of Skunkworks. Lots of guys pushing the pace on the loops, Rhapsody, Orange Whip and Chin Music seemed to always be out front with strong efforts all around.

Thanks for stepping up to Q ExLax. Initially I had to modify the KB work due to the running. As I tried to modify the running to increase my KB work, I found myself gassed after each exercise. Although I mostly just remember running around and around and around all morning, my upper body is quite sore today – so thanks for the full body workout! And that fine mist turned the cool morning into a hot and humid sweat box. Everybody seemed to be pushing hard all morning – especially on the loops. Can’t imagine adding in a pre-run – good work Fletch and others.
