You’re a Champion, We’re all Champions

No Hollywood, Wolverine, Easy Button or the newest Ignition regular Recalc but the show must go on.

MOLESKIN:

Champion Forest always takes a toll but this morning seemed worse than normal.  The humidity, the loooong hill coming back up from the bottom, the long Chisholm Ct. repeats, it grinds you down.

The Original Plan was to start with the True Burpee Mile.  But, after Dasher’s 150 Burpee Iron Pax preview two days earlier that was not happening today.

Tool Time and Glidah were pushing the pace and set the bar high today.  Ice 9’s heave-o-meter was active early which is always an indication of how hard he’s working.  Bottlecap and Dasher made it through all those hand release and back exercises shirtless and are in the lead for the Iron-Bax challenge.

As we approached Chisholm Ct. today we saw Fuse Box pulling out on his way to Asylum and almost right into a couple of deer on Dobson.  That would have been a great way to start the morning.

73 degrees with a 72 degree dew point and 94% humidity is no joke and everyone really worked hard and pushed each other, great job!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

  • ALL WORKOUTS WILL RETURN TO PRE-COVID STARTING TIMES BEGINNING NEXT MONDAY, AUGUST 3.  As schools start back up teachers and staff will be returning to school early in the morning and traffic in the parking lots of most of our AOs will be getting busy.
  • Look for an announcement concerning our F3 Waxhaw Official 1 Year Convergersary.  Date is Labor Day, Monday, September 7, 2020.  Mark your calendar.
  • Waxhaw Express tomorrow at 5:30am at Cuthbertson.
