Resurrection of Puddin from the Ashes

Resurrection of Puddin from the Ashes

Date: 2024-07-26 AO: joust Q: poptart PAX: geraldo, ductwork, puddin_pop, spackles FNGs: None COUNT: 5
Warm up around the parking lot, then suicide tree Merkin ladder thingy. Stop by my truck to get a half roll of fire hose and we carried down to playground. Two Pax at each playground, while someone drags hose back and forth. Everyone got 3 turns. Next up we ran up stadium steps to parking lot 3 times. At each end 10 supines and 10 air squats. Finish at the lot with some core exercises. Notable takeaway: – Puddin really, really, really despises Third Eye Blind. Some much his ashes would rise up like the liquid Terminator to kill off the band

High speed mall or Maul walking

Date: 2024-07-24 AO: the-maul Q: das_boot PAX: patent_pending, Rudy, Odd Job, das_boot FNGs: None COUNT: 4 YHC was feeling inspired by things seen on social media lately and worked in the Murderhorn (in-laws are currently in the beautiful land of Zermatt) but the fan favorite was the introduction of race walking, a keen Olympic sport. It’s no joke and we still have no clue how the British Olympian Tom Bosworth lays down a 5:31 mile walking, but he’s flying. None of the PAX achieved that this morning.
Other fun things included the goofball, squats and rock work. Good times with the men of SOB and catching up, checking on injuries, moves and smart kids. We briefly lost one PAX to nature’s call but he swiftly returned — hopefully the recent rains cleared and signs of his detour. 💩

I mentioned that I was coming home from a road trip to Cedar Point Amusement park and I’d let him know. Based on the radio silence from that last correspondence, i felt compelled to show up. So we departed OH about 5pm last night and rolled into the garage at 1:40 this am. With 9 hrs to think about my Q, we were ready to roll at 5:30

In reality, we actually always started with the new exercise (so 50, 40, 30, 20, 10) and counted down, I am just too tired and lazy to rewrite it.
Run over to the hill for Triple Nickel: Dive bomb merkins at the top/ Calf raises at the bottom and backward run up the hill
Run over to the playground Spread out and do the following: 10 pull ups, 20 dips, 30 swing-set legs to chest, 40 set ups x2 rounds

COT: thanks OW for having me Q. Needed the jumpstart. -good to see Bananas after a successful heart surgery -focker abandoned his Joust crew to see if I would show up after my long drive -Ow and Lex felt the need to get a few miles in before the workout, nice job!! -Horsehead was quiet today, although I heard a few jabs, alway makes me laugh -Erin Brockovich quietly complained about the number of step ups. I can’t say I blame him -Limey loves old cotton tee shirts for his gloom beatdown. Nothing breaths better than thick cotton on a humid day As for myself, I am tired. Went to bed about 2 am. No work for me today, so when I hit send… good night!
And one last thing, I know that I ate like crap for the past 2 days and had nothing but energy drink, coffe and McDonalds to create some awful gas. Not sure the diet of the other pax, but it was spicy today!
Have a good day and a good weekend!

He didn’t show to know

Date: 2024-07-25 AO: the-devils-turn Q: voodoo PAX: turkey_leg, Orange Whip, Polly, grasshopper, voodoo FNGs: None COUNT: 5 5 pax launched from the Trader Joe’s parking lot in Piper Glen this morning to attempt the Tiger Rag Challenge. Our illustrious site Q was not among them.
Polly was damp when we all got there, so I assume he did a pre-run but he’s sweats a lot so maybe he’d gotten out of his car that way. No one seemed fired up to try to make it to Carmel this morning, but OW led the pack and got the farthest. Grasshopper wanted easy miles so he ran with me. Polly also ran with us for a bit, so he was taking it easy. TL split the difference between OW and the rest of us.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: 1) Brolympics with Waxhaw on Saturday. 2) Mental Toughness webinar series organized by Astro and Dosey Doe kicks off in August. Monday nights at 8pm.
COT: Thanks to OW for taking us out.
