When you come to The Intersection……….

When you come to The Intersection……….

14 PAX escaped the Fartsack this morning to come face to face with The Intersection! A point at the Outland where decisions have to be made on which direction you will go and if you will face each challenge with determination and gusto, but mainly the challenge is You vs. You!  All look ready to accept that challenge.  Let’s Roll through it!!

PRE-THANG

0600 – Great Job to GJ & Shepard on the Pre-Work 4 – 5 mile runner’s delight!

0615 – HH & EE accept the challenge of 300 KB swings and The BodyBlade workout to HH’s always #wonderful tunes while 2.0’s Boondock, Shoeless Joe & Stacks harass relentlessly.

MOLESKIN

Thanks to Shoeless Joe (2.0) for helping me late last night make and firmly plant a new F3 shovel flag this morning! The Outland seems to offer a wide variety of interesting people #notjustPAX and endless places to Q a workout.  Today was no exception.  Funny how we travel through The Intersection nearly weekly, multiple times per workout sometimes, but today took the time to notice just how much pain hurt agony opportunity there is in every direction.

It is always great to see the Pre-Runners blaze by you while you are setting up along the route in the gloom.  And HH’s music never gets better, but at least he is playing original bands instead of #puttinonthehits covers. I think I heard a few Christian Death Metal GJ favorites in the mix as well #couldnotunderstandthewords.  For all of those that got to experience The Bodyblade this morning, I know that will be a game changer.  I am developing a deep affection for gimmick workout equipment for some reason.  I think it may be due to the awesome responses. It was also great to see #anddodge the #F3Outland Recumbent Bike team again that meets at the elementary school on Saturday’s, the 300 Dog walking team that follow us around and White Fang #intraining this morning.

This workout was quite the gasser and I personally enjoy watching how everyone gives it 100%, breathing hard, sweat pouring down, and still dig deep enough to encourage the next guy #ISI.  Espresso was #nearly renamed Double Shot.  We did learn it may be better to rename a PAX AFTER the Merlot is spilled and not DURING it!  Great work by FNG “Liger” #itsprettymuchmyfavoriteanimal (From Napoleon Dynamite) for his sweet Tiger Tatoo.  He is a runner fellas!  Great work by all today!
