On a (annoyingly) cold spring day, four brave souls made their way to Peak 51 in the heart of Area 51. Here’s what we got into:
Head towards the shopping center parking lot
SSH
Imperial Walkers
Mountain Climbers
7s- 1 Merkin, 6 LSS to start out with
Travel- stop by Mac’s Speed Shop to smell the BBQ, and end up at Cotton Gin Alley for some Hill Billy’s
Continue Traveling to Pizza Peel-then to the Pizza Peel
Partner up- Travel opposite directions, 10 hand slap merkins when you meet
Round 1: Run
Round 2: Lunge
Travel to Brakeman’s
Head inside to get warm, and grab some java
Head back outside and run (with said Java) back to launch
Done!
Moleskine
Upon arriving and realizing it was going to be a light crowd, I decided to emulate the great (and unfortunately now somewhat mythical) Drano and treat the PAX to some Brakeman’s- so all of today was geared towards getting us there.
The “Java run” with actual Java in hand was waaay too entertaining, and may make a return appearance sooner rather than later.
Great group of guys- initially it appeared to only be three, then BullWinkle three wheeled it into the parking lot at 5:31.
It was a little sketch today- apparently (sources after notified me) the 4th graders at Matthews Elementary were going on a trip- but that mean that parents had their kids in one of the parking lots that we use around 5:40. It was mass chaos- parents moving parking spaces for no good reason, kids just randomly appearing out of the gloom, all the while the bus didn’t come until the very end of the workout.
Thanks to Lois and Sensei for allowing me to Q- see you in the gloom! (yes you- it’s warm now so you should make a return appearance and stop slacking).
