Broken Wind Smells Like Navy Sailors

Broken Wind Smells Like Navy Sailors

18 PAX showed up Thursday morning with moist, late fall weather to run some pavement. Here’s what happened.

Began disclaimer and quick mosey to front of school. Had the PAX circle up for some warm up exercises. Exercises included: Side Straddle Hop x 15, Mountain Climbers x 15, Hand Release Merkins x5 OYO.

Had PAX run down Rea toward Harris Teeter. Plank up at the entrance to Teeter for some planking work with some Hand Release Merkins. Shuffled the group over to the Christmas Tree fountain for some partner work. Round 1 – Partner 1 performed Derkins while Partner 2 ran the dumpster mile. Round 2- Partner 1 performed dips while Partner 2 ran the dumpster mile. Final Round – Partner 1 performed step ups while Partner 2 ran the dumpster mile.

Ran the PAX down to the back entrance of the shopping center for Burpees. Completed 5 rounds of descending count Burpees, started at x5. Finished this awful set of exercises with a 10 count from Buttermaker.

Ran down Colony toward SouthPark, made a right at Abbotswood Drive and huddled the PAX for some very loud Mary. Round 1 – LBCs, Round 2 – Flutters, Round 3 – Heels to Heaven. Ran up Abbotswood toward stop sign at Windyrush. Had PAX stop at intersection for multiple planking exercises with some Hand Release Merkins. Headed down Windyrush toward Foxworth drive for some 7’s. Squats at the bottom of the hill and Merkins at the top. Gathered the PAX at the base of Foxworth for additional planking exercises with some Hand Release Merkins.

Had PAX run back up Foxworth toward the park and gather at athletic field. Run toward middle of field and perform x10 merkins back to starting position on field. Run back to launch to finish the workout.

Moleskin:

Here are a few observations from the workout. As usual Spackler showed up looking like he drank his way out of a whiskey barrel. I always expect to see him pulled over and performing a field sobriety on my way to workouts in the morning. I want to apologize to Fireman Ed for lying to him yesterday about my workout plans. Sorry! We ran 3 miles and I was not able to secure a FIA convergence. As usual Puddin’ smelled like a barnyard. Spackler made a comment about the stench halfway down Abbotswood Drive that is not repeatable. Read the name of this post for a small hint. Buttermaker looked dapper as usual. Between his new LuLu gear and his Brazilian shaving techniques he is my vote for the next most interesting man in the world. Stay thirsty my friends! Cheese Kurd was his usual insult throwing self. He always does a nice job keeping the workout crew lose with his irreverent humor. Jet Fuel seemed to have lost his sleeves during one of the partner exercises or he actually owns a tank top.

There is always a solid group of guys that show up to Hydra. Special thanks to Good Hands and Puddin’ Pop for giving me the keys to one of Area 51’s gems!
