My Buddy and Me
The unofficial official workout known as the SOFAWIB (SOuth of FAirview WIB) was #OnFleek this morning. I have no idea what that means, but all the cool kids are saying it.
Here is what we did:
Run the AYG mile to HT (Right onto Rea; run to HT; loop the first pillar; back to OP)
With your partner (never leave him/her behind)
–Run to the playground and do 10 pull-ups and 30 dips on the Buddy Bench (Buddy Bench is required)
–Run to Concession Stand and do 20 squats and 20 incline diamond merkin
–Run to the Field and do 30 LBC’s and 10 dumbocrats (partner 1 planks and does power merkins while partner 2 does derkins, flapjack)
–Run through the woods and to the top of Foxworth hill (at stop sign) and do 10 partner derkins and 30 Flutters (single count)
Run back to field, concession stand, and playground and do exercises. That is 1 round.
Complete as many rounds as possible until 6:05.
Run the mile to HT and back.
Moleskin
Kirk is still recovering from his Puerto Rico hangover, but still threw down a strong first mile (STRAVA). The last mile to HT was not as fast though…Not sure who won the first mile as Swiper and Kirk were too far out in front of YHC too see.
Iron Mike lost his shirt along the way.
Sundancer produced a quality playlist on his Sweeper-esque speaker.
No one liked the dumbocrats. I thought 10 would be manageable but I was wrong.
Brushback wanted to run faster but he was partnered with YHC. This morning was a struggle. Cobains.
Swiper is always pushing everyone to be faster. Either by telling you to run faster (YHC) or by pulling you through the workout (Kirk). This is good. Keep doing it as we all need it. #ISI
Swiper and Kirk led the way with 2.25 rounds and everyone else got in a 2 full rounds. Each round consisted of 0.9 miles running, 90 merkin variations, 60 LBCs, 60 dips, 40 squats, 30 Flutters, and 20 pull-ups.
Announcements
Kirk will begin his BRR training this week. Or next week.

What is #OnFleek? Sounds like another #Dreddism which is spoken in a prophetic tone whereby you’re forced to use context clues for a definition as the speaker never defines the term until it creeps onto the Lexicon (see COLAM, DRP, DECL, AM on the Lexicon for other fine examples).
Kirk was Team Struggs today. I could hear him singing some Copa Cabana song and reminiscing about some umbrella drink at an infinity pool at the Days Inn San Juan. Get your mind right Kirk. Welcome back.
Sundancer brought the heat with his bombox. Kanye happened to be my favorite artist this morning. T-Claps.
Iron Mike loses his shirt every week. He’s a white Kimbo Slice or at least he looked the part when he had his #manbeard (#lumbersexual, Dreddism).
Dumbocrats were awful. Kirks feet felt like 400 lbs (#beerweight).
SOFAWIB is gaining momentum. Not everyone will visit the hardest A51 workout. Most won’t even try. For those that will, you’ll get better, faster and stronger. And yes, that’s a challenge. T-Claps to a good workout Bushwood.
Struggling puts it mildly, especially that final mile. I got pulled along this morning, and I only forgot one of the eight exercises. Unfortunately that wasn’t the dumbocrats. Those are still awful. This workout hit most of the AO and muscle groups plus 3.85 miles.
Missed highlights: Talk Box’s BS call getting its own BS call. Iron Mike losing his shirt, yet again, for the final mile. Sundancer still out there running that final mile.
