Horse Head

Horse Head

Twenty men did the work of 50 lesser men.  And that doesn’t even count the seven Pax that posted for Red Coats, Rednecks and Rucks, or the four old men that power walked around the track.

Mosey to track for a lap, then to midfield for the standard warmup fare:  SSH, low squats, merkins, mountain climbers, I-Walkers.

•  I am a big fan of the Partner / Team Total exercises mostly for the accountability effect:  I can’t slack on the run because my teammate is back there doing burpees.  Nor can I slack on burpees because I wouldn’t be pulling my load.  It’s a near-perfect antidote to fatigue-induced tendencies to buy flannel footy jammies and sip cocoa from an oversized mug.  Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
• All were pleased to learn, none more than Horse Head himself, that we were to touch the Horse Head bust, not Horse Head’s bust.  Can’t remember how he got his name (even though he told me last week), but I feel for his M, who wakes up daily to a Horse Head in the bed.
• Strong work by the Pax on a grind of a workout.  Good to see the Metro and 51 guys mix it up.  And thanks to DD’s for the leadership at the site.
