And now we run…

And now we run…

Welcome to North Carolina, before you enter please note between June 1 and August 31st it’s oppressively hot . Like 5:15 in the morning in the 70’s with thick humid air hot. Picture taking a hot steamy shower and putting your clothes on without drying off hot. Not today though, today we reaped the benefits of some weather that came through this weekend and were able to workout in some cool dry air. So what should we do? We should run…..

And run we did:

The Thang

Mosey on over to the front of the high school and do some stretches, SSH’s, and merkins for good measure. For those keeping score (15 SSH, 10 Merkins, Jimmy Dugan and calf stretches)

Fastest way out of the complex requires a wet grass hill much to the dismay of today’s special guest. Cross the road over to Champions Forest.

Alternating at each light do 10 merkins, 10 dry docks, then 10 Mike Tysons.

We then cut over to the best of Waxhaw’s subdivisions. Good news B&C’s, you’re still #1 in Mineral Springs. Lawson. Headlamps on, it’s time to go. We did stuff and ran. There were 14 stops for those keeping score, stop keeping score we only stopped so the 6 could catch up. I had some exercises that we would do but they were only to kill time, most were uphill out of the trails. There were merkins, BB situps, dry docks, speed skaters, and squats interchanged.

Moleskin

It’s always good to work towards a plan and have a plan ahead of time. This can cost you at times, we barely made it back in the allotted time but we made it none the less. Unfortunately this came with some consequences so special thanks to Bottle Cap for hanging with the six through out Champions, no Lou still no “s” as we pressed on for the last mile or so to make it back in time.

Welcome back Pyrex Money Ball, looking like a pile of dog poo as he comes in coughing and hugging on healthy people fresh and WITHOUT so much as socks that are covering his calves. There must be some magic juju in that Tennessee water we know it’s not thanks to the Coke products

Also, we tried to keep it quiet for the most part as we were running by people’s houses until Dasher started going door to door like Smokie in Friday trying to drop heat. All the PAX did great and we got around 5.5 miles in.

Announcements

Next Monday is the official launch of F3 Waxhaw with a huge area convergence. The convergence launches from the football stadium parking lot. Help will be needed as we expect Posse to single handedly HC everyone from South New Jersey down to Boca Raton, FL a huge turnout.

There might of been more but I was focused on getting back home to finally get rid of my kids after a grueling summer of “I’m bored” help get the kids on the bus for the first day.
