Or perhaps you don’t want to see the second largest ball of twine on the face of the earth

5 men loaded up the family truckster and headed on a road trip over to Day Zero for a taste of Bugvergence.

Warmup (while Tootie puts his shoes on). Apparently his prep time was affected by a present left by his dog. SSH, IW, Mountain Climber).

Begin mosey to DZ, stopping for squats and merkins on the way. Joined the DZ fray – seemed like they were just planking, but I’m sure whatever was right before that was more difficult.

More details on the DZ backblast – Strange Brew led a Starfish (25% of the size of The Rock starfish). Then we lined up for a water break. Bugeater took us to the Yellow Rose for some tough running. We left after round 2. I heard that they finished their workout with some planking.

Meanwhile, we ran back to The Rock, stopping along the way for Mary (LBC, Flutter, Peter Parker, something else). Finish at the cars.

Thanks to the DZ guys for welcoming us. It was a nice break for us. Good group of guys showed up at The Rock and got a little more running than they maybe hoped for. Almost 4 miles, I think. I heard the 3 mile beep as we left DZ. It was great to see Dead Lift back out there after a new baby. Skoal posted for his second week in a row and killed it. Tootie worked off a fried chicken dinner with some success. I enjoyed watching Hopper pass Spackler on one of the laps at DZ – both of them have gotten really fast. I was honored to be close enough to see it happen.

Announcements
No regular Rock workout next week. We’ll host a stop for Southern Discomfort. Should be fun.

Water break was a bit too much on a cooler than avg summer morning. C’mon DZ.

I was lucky to get out to a quick lead on Lap 1 bc I could hear Hoppers footsteps as we neared the parking lot. He smoked me on the hill on round 2. But he is like 6’8″. #longstrides

Wanted to make sure the gents from the rock weren’t going to pass out on us.

Fun workout today boys! Thanks for letting The Rock scale the fence and join you. Bug and Stenge Brew….strong show!

Regarding the Spackler footrace, I have two reasons for pulling ahead (and it was not easy as the boy was wearing smoke boots): 1) I haven’t posted all week so the legs were fresh and 2) I heard and smelled what he did in The Yellow Rose parking lot and did not want to be behind him for an extended period of time.
