Benny this workout isn’t fun

Date: 2025-12-23 AO: fast-twitch Q: Benny PAX: midriff, turkey_leg, hoover, Spammer, Alf, Astro (Kyle Kirchhoff), Doublemint, Insomniac, retread, Sensei, slim_fast, Benny FNGs: None COUNT: 12 WARMUP: 11 pax gathered together in the parking lot of crunch joined by DoubleMint who’s a beast for running into Fast Twitch today. Area 51 Nantan Hoover was yet to be found at the given time(more on that later). After a veteran disclaimer with today being YHC birthday that we would be working for 60 minutes and we would have fun we went towards the neighborhood of Raintree with some heel stretches, butt kickers, and high knees mixed in by the intersection of windbluff and raintree before instructions were given. THE THANG: Simple yet brutal, 3 hills of raintree. Run all the way to the end of the culdesac of smokerise, first speedbump of windbluff, and top of the rising meadow culdesac. After finishing each hill, head to the intersection of windbluff and raintree for 5 burpees. Rinse and repeat till 6:05 MARY: Not enough time for that though we did see Nantan Hoover in the parking lot for COT who overslept his alarm but came with his cooler of fun beverages! ANNOUNCEMENTS: Frasier on Q next week regular hours 5:15 AM Keep an eye out on email and slack for your assigned q slots to start 2026 this week. Kudos to Hoover for making it for COT and the kind words about 5 years as Site Q at Fast Twitch with coach Astro. Upon Hoover becoming Nantan he had reached out looking for volunteers and he had mentioned I was one of the first ones to step up for help and will be serving on the Area 51 board with Hoover(annoucements on that coming up), anyone looking to step up reach out to Hoover or I we’d be happy to have more pax involved. Great crew this AM with some Fast Twtich veterans, Mountain Goat Pax who normally don’t come out to Fast Twitch oftene, along with Midriff for getting doublemint to come out. Its hard to believe I’m entering my 10th year of F3, been through a lot in my time here in Charlotte. Career changes, getting hit by a car, too many injuries to count, parents going through a divorce, whole nine yards. Can honestly say while I’m no where near endurance and fitness wise where I’d like to be the statement iron sharpens iron is very fitting. This year is probably the least injured I’ve been in about 6 years and am excited for the great things to come in 2026. COT: Astro with the strong takeout!
