Naked Moleskin:
YHC rolled in hot with 30 seconds to game time. We kept it moving pretty good and kept warm. The merkin death spiral is always a crowd pleaser, especially the extra 10 merkins to finish. It takes so much out of me that everything else becomes more difficult. Not much mumble chatter until the pax began to realize I had us far from home with time expiring. Sorry about the extra credit (especially to those who ran in, like F3 Prius member Cheese Curd). Larry Bird arrivals at the school at 6:18, the Six arrived by 6:20 or so. Almost all standing and gasping for CoT. I hope this means y’all were as smoked as I was.
Workout was frontloaded with merkins and backloaded with running, but we got plenty of each. I had us at 140 merkins, lots of 6 inch planks and just over 3 miles with some hills. Our Mary was sprinkled in throughout, especially since time was tight and my shoulders were gonna quit working. OP is such a great AO that we rarely leave campus, but I couldn’t resist charting some new territory. I wanted to invade my buddy Scott’s house, and my 7 year old son requested we buzz the tower at Casa de Chico.
Plenty of Larry Birds. Chelms was a front runner all day. Bug Eater must have had a bug in his drawers or something because he flew up the Bellmore Hall hill when we did the AYG. That might have smoked him though. Glad to see 3 members of the newly minted F3 Prius team for Palmetto 200. #needonemoreguy. Thanks to Silent Bob for venturing down from Metro, and good work by Olaf in only his second workout.
Bugeater, thanks for the opportunity to lead the pax and for the great takeout.
