#NoShirtTuesday

16 men showed up to do work this morning at #F3FastTwitch.

The Thang

Run around the parking lot loop then out onto Strawberry, right on Woodfox, left on Rounding Run, then a left onto Rising Meadow. Circle up at the first light for the soft cadence IWs x 15 and MCs x 15. Mosey to the top of the hill on Rising Meadow for the plan.

Run back and forth from top of Rising Meadow to bottom on Windbluff until 0610. Options were to just run it or to do 7s with squats at the top of Rising Meadow and merkins at the bottom of Windbluff.

At 0610, meet at Rising Meadow stop sign and run back to SCMS.

Moleskine

The distance of one loop is right at about a mile. There are rolling hills. It was not fun.

The TRuckster is no more. He has an orange Jeep now. It’s a hideous color. Rumor has it he’s going with purple doors and spare tire cover with Dabo Swinney’s face on it. Soul Glow said it was Bengals orange. Almost SG…while TR did leave early, he did make it past the first round.

Stumpy put down the #Swift kool-aid to join us, for his birthday no less. Solid work and happy birthday…monkey humpers were our gift to you.

All of a sudden #NoTrackTuesday and #TankTopTuesday became #NoShirtTuesday, as almost all the front guys went shirtless this morning. ProTip: #SoccerArms and #Manscaping must make you faster.

Strawberry came hauling in late Mr. Brady style and ran hard to catch us at the warm up. Said he almost blew chunks today…not sure if it was the hill climbs or the aforementioned #NoShirtTuesday that got him queasy. Either way, I’ll try harder next time.

Solid work by all the guys today. And a lot of encouragement as we all passed each other along the route. #Kumbaya

Bratwurst wondered why in the world I chose FT over Swift on my bday. I told him FT had cake and a rickshaw to take me back to the AO.

Honestly after peaking those hills I was hoping for the Q to call planks or a 10 count. That was one tough run this morning.

Glad I chose FT thiis morning lots of 2nd F.

Fast Twitch HD: No 10 counts or exercises

Pretty sure Purple Haze and I were the only ones doing the exercises at the ends of the loop. My last two posts at fast twitch have been much more like Swift than the fast twitich of old

That’s ridiculous! I did 180 degree squat jumps at each end. Granted they were single count, with only a slight knee bend, and not much “hop” but I still did them.

Yep, you were the only ones doing that bootcamp stuff. I did get down in the “hand release merkin” pose only because I wanted to be close the the ground when I spilled merlot. To keep if from splattering on my new Zips.

Strava says this was my 3rd shot at this route. Once each May/June. I have forgotten each of them and hope to forget this one too. Non-stop hills in both directions is just painful.

Thanks to Hairball for slowing down to keep up the 2F. Although there was one awkward ill timed right turn on Raintree where we rubbed sweaty shoulders. #Gross

Just think how it’ll be when it’s actually hot out in the morning…

Pretty sure as the sunrise revealed more of the road that the hills got steeper. Right? Windbluff is a lonely climb by yourself. Brady ran it with me the last loop..grateful for the company.
