17 mountain goats got a jump on BRR training and torched the hills of Raintree this morning. It was a cool, dry morning – perfect conditions for some hill work and not a peep about deflated balls. Here’s what we did:
The THANG-A-LANG
COP:
Fast Mosey to the base of Rising Meadow
-Merkin x15 whisper cadence
Fast Mosey to the base of Windbluff peak for some grinders. Group up in 3’s. Mumblechatter of it being “too early in the year to run Windbluff” was blatantly ignored.
– Round 1- Top: Peter Parkers/Bottom: Bear Squats
– regroup at the base – Merkin x10
– Round 2- Top: Squat/Bottom: Nipplers
– regroup at the base – Merkin x10
– Round 3- Top: LBC/Bottom: Flutter
– regroup at the base – Merkin x10
We bid farewell to one of the finest hills in Area 51 with a suicide AYG to the peak.
Fast Mosey to the base of Rising Meadow for a set of 7’s. Forward run up the hill on odd number trips up, backward run up on the evens. Start with 1 Turkish Get Up at the bottom and 6 Hand-release Merkins at the top. Continue 2 TGU/5 HR merkins until completing 6 TGU/1 HR merkin.
– Plankorama
– Indian mosey back to campus.
– Head to the track line up for some 100 yd gassers – avoid tomatoes and ice patches
Ye Olde Moleskinne:
– Lots of BRR race jerseys in attendance today.
– Alf and Spackler shared an intimate moment at the base of windbluff that turned some heads. Mixing bear squats with pillow talk is a recipe for disaster. If you missed it, ask someone who was there – the quote ain’t making the backblast – YHC enjoys posting privileges too much. Oh, and #getaroom.
– Clouds of mustard gas were being dropped in the streets of Raintree today. YHC was fortunate to be a few steps ahead, but heard choking/gasping from the fumes. Something about a cleanse diet…
– Winner of most complimented pax goes to Runstopper on wearing shorts over his tights today. TClaps, RS – bear squats in tights would have crossed the line.
– Quick trip to the track for some gassers turned into olympic speed skating. Cheese curd looked graceful in his moon shoes gliding around the curves. #wherewasBOG?
– YHC was conducting the train from the caboose today – Lots of #smokeboots out there today.
-Tclaps to Slim Fast for a meaningful take out today.
– Always an honor to post and lead the toughest workout in A51. Great job, great effort this morning gents.
