The 150 lb Cheese Roll

The hill was angry at 13 Pax this day, my friends.  Like an old man returning soup at a deli.

MOLESKIN

  •  After last week’s ego-deflating 30-30 tabata with the Ms’ hand weights, it was time to feel like a man again and move heavy things up and down the hill.  Workman-like effort by all.  T-Claps.
  • Pretty Boy Quarterback started training this morning for his annual trip to the Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling Race by rolling the 150 lb-plus tractor tire down the hill.  Toward the buses.  Toward an unidentified Pax, head down, pounding out the mountain climbers.  Thankfully, all personnel and property emerged unblemished.
  • Incidentally, despite the glamorous handle, Pretty Boy Quarterback prefers to chase his Cheese Roll incognito.  YHC has it on good authority that the gentleman in the green shirt at 2:04 in the clip from the 2009 race is none other than our very own. Link HERE.
  • With 13 Pax distributed among only 7 stations, each Pax got 5 to 7 cracks at the mountain climbers.  At 2 minutes per, that’s ten to fourteen minutes of scratching pavement.  Strong work.
