NM:
-Kirk is wading into the water after a month on IR. Welcome back.
-Run Prancer handed over the whistle this morning to Swiper. Kirk and Swiper will now get back to planning world domination via SOFAWIB.
-Sledge was hustlin’. 13 years old and crushing it. Atta boy.
-On the outro run, Run Prancer was running alongside red-shirt-guy (Wolfman?). With little to no heavy breathing, they were talking about dollhouses and new casserole recipes. #hustle
-One Eye maintaining his image with 1 of his 300 head bands and his combat gloves.
-Hops was out there today for his SOFAWIB maiden voyage. He left with mulch in tow to show for it.
-TClaps to Kirk for the take out.
-Send some prayers up for McGee’s mom. Bad diagnosis of cancer and she needs the Sky Q right now.
-Strong showing this morning for SOFAWIB. Let’s keep the momentum going. Let’s hit 20 next week. Send an email, text someone, tell a friend. Make history.
Swiper author
Been quite a while since I ran that one, and it was about as bad as I remember it. Makes me wish I’d worn a HR monitor just to prove that there was no rest, even when I began to modify. Foot has recovered, knock on wood, just need my lungs to finally recover from the IR stint. Glad I forgot the GPS as that was not good. 5+ miles Monday and another 4+ today – including over 2 miles of sprints, 200 yards at a time.
Hops – you looked like you took a bath in the mulch. I don’t think he could have gotten dirtier if he tried. Oh, and in addition to puking at the mention of WW2 situps, Sundancer is known for his eclectic music selections. We once went from the Shaft theme song to some random rap about bat guano. Today was old school rap to what I can only describe as angry white man music (Champagne would no doubt approve). It’s more “Music 401”, and I rarely understand it.
Strong, under-the-radar pairing of Cold Cuts and One Eye (WD today?). Pretty sure they led the field during the exercise portion. Wolfman was there (redshirt) and made it a point to hang with me on a couple sprints. We both paid the price for that on a sloooow final mile.
Official welcome to Swiper as site Q….should continue to be fun on Tuesdays.
