Recycled Rocks and Running

15 men assembled at Hydra for what was hopefully our last cold workout of the winter.

Mosey to front field for a warmup

SSH x 20

Slow squat x 20

Mosey around the school with high knees, butt kickers, carioca mixed in. Assemble at the rockpile in the church parking lot across the street from the school. Split into two groups.

Group 1 select a manly rock and perform called exercise while group 2 hustles around the church building. Flapjack and repeat with:

Curls

Overhead press

Merkins with one hand on the rock

Return rocks to their homes and assemble for Indian Run through the neighborhood to the unnamed Hydra hill for Triple Nickels.

Sprint from one end to the other three times, ending at the fence.

Done.

Moleskin:

Surely that was our last sub-40 degree workout, right? I’m done with it. We got warmed up quickly this morning though. I recycled this Weinke from my Ascent Q at the same site last weekend and just turned it up a little for the Hydra crowd. Bugeater and Kirk led the charge for my group around the church – traversing the ditch never quite felt safe, but I think we made it out without injury. I stole the Triple Nickel from someone who Q’d at Anvil a few weeks ago, but I can’t remember who it was. It’s become a favorite on the Weinke for me though. Just the right level of suck. I love looking back when we get to a new spot during the workout and seeing Greyhound’s headlamp bobbing up behind us. That guy doesn’t quit. Great work by him out there this morning. Kirk was a beast again on the Triple Nickels, but it made me feel a little better to see him lay down on his back after he finished. Slight navigational error by me on the way through the trail. Next time, I’ll just pretend I meant to take the long way around.
