Double shaft with a smile

There were seven of us this morning.  Of that, I am sure.  This is what I think we did:

THANG

Run the HT mile – avoid ice and large holes.

Run to the large playground – 10 knees to elbows, 20 dips

Run back the way you came to the sidewalk.  Lunge walk x10 each side, 10 merkins (continue alternating until you reach the other driveway to the school).

Run to the other playground – 10 pull-ups, 20 squats.

Run back to the sidewalk the way you came.  Lunge walk x10 each side, 10 merkins (continue alternating)…

Repeat several times then run the HT mile again, but with the added twist of surprise Mary at HT.

MOLESKINE

So yeah, there were seven of us this morning.  We ended up forming groups around the initial mile finish, which provided some 2nd F and made the seemingly endless lunge walk more endurable.  That was a lot more merkins and lunge walking than I anticipated.  I think 40 merkins each way, so yeah…lot of merkins and lunge walks.

No Sundancer despite the Iron Mike / Talk Box car pool (two just isn’t enough to qualify as a clown car).  McGee aka Horseneck was there and deep six all morning.  Only one of those statements is a complete lie.  He doesn’t live in SC, or even Union Co, as I was lead to believe.  I didn’t recognize High Tide (shh…though in his defense he promoted Meathead on Thursdays at COT) until 2/3 of the way through.  That beard, man…if he wasn’t a nice guy, I’d probably say he could join a Just for Men commercial, but he is a nice guy, so I won’t say that.  I also won’t say that Hammer appeared to be pulling him along most of the morning.  One Eye went beyond the stipulations found in the “EZ Rings Safety Handbook” with both reflective vest and kids’ head lamp – no blinky light #notBRRseasonYet.  He also put up with yet another week of a ton of lunge walks.  YHC struggled this morning, but after some time away, definitely appreciative of the boost provided by the Pax.  This thing we have is something that is easy to take for granted.

Only announcement was about Meathead, I think.

Aye. Hammer was pulling me along. Otherwise, I would have bailed on the lunge walks halfway through each set. Brutal. Almost considered modifying with burpee broadjumps. Almost. But I was and am ready for some #0.0 at Meathead tomorrow.
