6 men gathered in an elementary school parking lot at 5:30 in the morning. Vacant police escort car was ready to go, so off we went.

Warmup
Surprise early jaunt across the street to the church parking lot for the warmup (SSH, IW, MC, Squats).

Partner up and pick a rock. Partner 1 runs a hot lap around the medians while partner 2 does the exercise (curls, overhead press, tricep extension, curl and press). Flapjacks throughout.

Mosey to the rarely used, but quite lovely, circle of benches around the tree near the road. Partner 1 runs and touches that light post over there while partner 2 does the exercise on a bench (Step-ups, Incline Merkins, Right leg on bench stand up (what’s that called), Derkins, Left leg on bench stand up).

Mosey to the dugouts for alternating People’s Chair and BTW (3 of each).

Continue to the back field and, after a quick scan for that coyote we just heard, on to Grinders. Groups of 3 – on one end do 100 of the called exercise, Mary on the other side, one guy running in between. Alternate until 100. Hand release merkins/LBC, Jump squats/Flutter, Lunges/Dolly.

To the front field for three quick “sprints”. Done.

Moleskine
Small but mighty crowd this morning. Thanks to Puddin’ Pop for the call to Q. Marge and I definitely heard a coyote, and it wasn’t very far away. Nuke scanned the area with his headlamp, and we didn’t see anything, so we continued. Remember, you don’t have to outrun the coyote, just your friend. Good to see Wolfman out this morning – he says he’s getting back to 3 posts a week, so be on the lookout. Puddin’ Pop disappeared into Lake Hydra on one of the runs – deepest “puddle” I’ve seen. We thought we lost him.
