Adult Beverage Mile Training

I overestimated the time it took to get to DV, so Squid and I pulled in with only 10 minutes to spare. As Pax started arriving I and looked down at the track, and all I saw was pitch black. Perfect for the workout I had planned. Mosey around the parking lot and grab a lifting rock before forming a tight circle at the end close to the fields.

COP:
20 x SSH
20 x SSH (aka IW)
20 x SSH (aka Merkins)

The Thang:
Everyone form groups of 3 with rocks (and men) of similar size. (You know what they say about a guy with a big rock) Mosey down to the track. Each team grab a lane to make sure we keep our teams and rocks together in the darkness. Partner 1 stay at the starting line, while Partner 2 run across the field with their rock to wait on the other side of the track. Partner 3 then runs 200 yards around track as the timer, while Partner 1 and 2 performing exercises. Two full laps for each Pax.

Round 1: Partner 1 Overhead Press, Partner 2 V-Ups with Rock.
Round 2: Partner 1 Curls, Partner 2 Crunches with Rock.
Round 3: Partner 1 Squats, Partner 2 Russian Twist with Rock.

Mosey back up the hill to replace rock, then circle back up.
12 x Can Opener on each leg.

Moleskin:
Thanks for letting me lead. Semi-Gloss and Dollywood had me on the schedule last week and were kind to let me switch. And Dollywood was MIA. Must have been scared. Semi-gloss is either injured, lazy, or protesting HB2 as I caught him exiting the ladies’ restroom. I feel bad for anyone that has to go in their over the next 24 hours. I asked him why he came out of that restroom and he said it was closer than the men’s. I guess he was saving his strength for the workout? And Spackler and his team either cheated, or beer is Spackler’s cryptonite. He completed the first lap while the rest of us where still trying to find what lane we were in, and he proclaimed he didn’t have a single beer last night. And someone was complaining about the chill in the air, and then Puddin Pop announced he wears short sleeves unless it is -40 F. Manly. And Gummy was annoyed that the second part of the lap was shorter than the first, so he had us all move to the middle of the first straight away, therefore making the first leg shorter than the second. Every Pax was totally confused.

The two halves of the lap were unevenly divided for the first set. I fixed that by suggesting we move down a bit. You’re welcome.

My boys Squid and Spackler were crushing the sprints. After the third set, Squid and I had time to crochet a blanket before the next team got in. All that from lane 7 too – of course we took lane around the curves, but we had longer to run to get to said curves.

Pretty tough to cheat today unless you cut across the fields and with my luck on fire ants lately that wasn’t happening. While I don’t think beer alone is my cryptonite, beer followed by Tito’s and wine could be the recipe. Today was just an abnormal morning. Good work Gummy and Squid. Straight up slayed it this AM.
