With the big game on Sunday, who can we count on to tote the rock?
With the temperatures still in the mid teens, YHC decided to start hard and start fast. The large landscaping rocks at the end of the stadium were used as instruments of pain. Knowing what was ahead, YHC chose his rock wisely. Others were more bold in their choices (i.e. Haggis and Snowflake) and may have gotten more of a workout than they bargained for. Here’s what went down:
Mosey to back of stadium and grab rock
Run to Catholic practice field
7 Russian Twists w/rock ( in cadence)

Moleskine:
•Great job by the pax today on the frozen tundra
• YHC intentionally decided to have a workout that included no side straddle hops, no merkins, and no burpees. Judging from the chatter, it still was a successful painfest.
• Haggis picked up the side of a curb and Snowflake picked up a boulder. As we were running to the field, YHC told Snowflake that he might regret that choice. As it turns out, I think MT switched rocks with him halfway through to give him relief.
On the last sprint, Haggis decided to do extra LBCs rather than carry his large coupon.
• There was a lot of counting this morning as the count went up to 56 in multiples of 7 in honor of all the touchdowns Peyton’s going to put up this week-end. Philmont commented that YHC sounded like a metronome, which unfortunately had YHC thinking about his 5th grade piano teacher, Mrs. Prunty.
• It was an honor shepherding (without the rod and staff) such a fine group of men this morning. Now, it’s time to line up with the other sheep (from The Stand). I am Third.
Announcements:
