Date: 2025-03-21 AO: joust Q: baracus PAX: gummy, spackles, hopper, Header, high_tide, geraldo, Orange Whip, Focker, ductwork, baracus FNGs: None COUNT: 10 10 fine gentlemen showed up for some Fun Friday activities at Joust. At least 1 of said gentlemen had more fun on Thursday as it would prove out.
WARMUP: Easy jog down Sardis to Old Bell. We stopped a few times for 10 merkins, 15 squats, and 20 LBCs. We also did a few SSH and Sharon Towers to complete our warmup. The moaning ramped up quickly when we turned right on Old Bell coming out of the greenway parking lot. Reminiscent of BRR training days.
THE THANG: We made our way down Old Bell to Blue Ridge Circle and the infamous manhole. Our first event was hill repeats on Blue Ridge where we did merkins at the bottom and squats at the top. After three repetitions we made our way down Mountain View to the bottom of the hill that made Horsey famous for the coup de gas. Hill repeats again x3 with Dry-docks at the bottom and LBCs at the top. We couldn’t leave without seeing the Yucca so we summited Old Bell and did some flutters. We started our descent from Mt Horsey and made our way home, only to lose spackles and geraldo to a “short cut”. Spack is likely still feeling the effects of his March Madness watch party, but ended up taking the long way out of the neighborhood. We rendezvoused at the bottom on Old Bell and brought the pax back home in time for two minutes of Mary. Nearly 4 miles of Fun Friday! Well done boys.
I’ve seen Horsey plenty of times over the last 10-12 years with BRR training, but not so much over the past few. It was time for a visit, but I think that visit has me satisfied for years to come.
MARY: We finished off with a few dolly’s and Rosalitas.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: None,.
COT: @gummy was all business. No time for announcements and he closed us out.
