27 pax, most of which have been suckered into this #BRR thing, showed up for a bit of running on this cool, crisp August morning.
The Thang
No warm up. Run to Windbluff Drive.
Triple Nickel on Windbluff – merkins at top, squats at bottom
Mosey to Rounding Run – partner up
Partner A goes one way on Rounding Run while Partner B goes the opposite – when you meet complete 10 squats – complete another 10 squats when you meet back after completing the circle. Then go opposite ways and repeat until 6:05.
Total Mileage ~ 6 miles
Moleskin
I love short backblasts, which is typically the case at Fast Twitch. Short backblasts do not reflect an easy work out though. I think we all got our fill this morning….well wait, 26 of us did. Bugeater’s alarm must have failed him again as he showed AFTER the Triple Nickel. We could all tell he was really pushing himself on his ‘run’ to come find us. He definitely looked a little startled as 26 horses came barreling down Rounding Run, blinking lights and all. But he did make it for the Rounding Run circuit which was delightful….and dark. Good Lord it was dark. Luckily some of us responsible folk had on our blinkers and lights. Looked like a damn circus out there. Funny how I came to find out there were RFYL folks on that loop as well. I saw a tiny figure coming at me and thought to myself that it had to be Purple Haze or BOG and decided to wait until we were about to pass to yell out a “Blaaaahaa UGhhhhhh, I’m so tired!” I scared the crap out of that RFYL girl. Poor thing was probably looking over her shoulder the rest of the morning. Oh, Jesus Gandarillas aka Snowbird, our FNG today. What did you do to Madison to get the invite to FT as your 1st post?! Good work brother. Keep coming on out. Lastly, to any of you reading this that weren’t there today or weren’t paying attention, Cheesecurd will be coming out with a new Stretching With Moon Shoes On (parking lot edition) mens running calendar. #thankyouRadar
