Can’t Get There From Here

Can’t Get There From Here

Posted on behalf of Long Haul for his VQ:

Well, 5:15am came and went and there was no sign of YHC on his Virgin Q.  Apparently YHC doesn’t keep track of road closure announcements as he learned the hard way that the 485 outer loop ramps at both Johnson Road and Rea Road were closed this morning.  So, after being forced onto the inner loop to Pineville, then taking the outer loop to Providence Road and then back on the inner loop to Rea Road, he finally made it to Devils Turn at 5:21!! #Cantgettherefromhere! Thanks to whomever got the PAX started.

Anyway, YHC was able to fall in with the PAX as they came back around from the apartment warm up loop and all was right with the world again.  It was a large group and there was a fair amount of chatter as we had some quality second F on the way to Piper Glen.  Once the PAX turned into the neighborhood the real work began as everyone kicked into their threshold paces.

It was a large group today, but hopefully everyone was able to get a good workout in.  Due to a wrong turn here or there in the gloom, a few people may have gotten a bit more mileage in than planned, but that only makes you stronger.

We welcomed two new brothers to the fold today and hope that they become regulars in the gloom.  Mike Griffin was given the nickname of Buttermaker (You’ll have to check out the Bad News Bears to get this reference) and Steven Cory was nicknamed Kingpin.

So, while it wasn’t the ideal VQ for YHC, I thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless and loved the opportunity to lead such a great group of men.  Thanks for all of the support.

Unbroken Movie

Various Convergences for Christmas week next week

If I woke up tomorrow with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn’t be more surprised than I am now.

11 men eschewed more sleep and gathered in the parking lot of Charlotte Christian. More cars than people at launch time. Did we miss the rapture? Surely not. Onward.

Mosey down to the track, halfish of a lap, and gather for warmup.
SSH, IW, Mountain Climber, Slow Squat.
Mosey to the track in front of the bleachers.

Unnamed as yet routine where we do 20 of called exercise, half lap, 15, half lap, 10, half lap, 5, half lap. Good times. Repeat through the course of the morning with Hand Release Merkins, Jump Squats, CDDs and Lunges. What it lacked in creativity, it made up for with terribleness.

Between those sets, we did some mary and some feats of strength (Indian wrestling, plank wrestling and finger jousting). Mixed reviews of that portion of the program.

Finish with a fairly swift yog back up to the parking lot. 2.5+ miles. Not bad.

Moleskin
Good times. Good times. I guess 6 miles on the track at Fast Twitch wasn’t enough for me. I just hate to pass up the chance to take advantage of the nice padded track. Good work by the guys this morning. I saw Prohibition at the beginning of the workout, then about midway through I thought he’d taken off. I realized that he was just always way ahead of me. The boy has gotten fast – he’s probably ready to give The Rock a try.

It’s hard to tell what happens in the dark on that track, but apparently during one of the wrestling matches, Mr. Brady took out Uncle Leo. Leo emerged from the darkness with a nice cut on his forehead. Good thing I properly disclaimed the PAX before we got started.

We were all surprised in the COT to find out that the guy who kicked our butts on the track and the wrestling was a 16 year old kid from Covenant Day. Welcome to FNG Babel (or Babble?) – apparently he speaks three languages. And he kicked our butts. The future is in good hands.

Joe Davis Run is that morning. Details on the website.

While all the sites are doing there 12 days day of Christmas dose of pain, I planned something a little different. How about the 8 Holy nights of Channukah beatdown. The stories tell us that there was only enough oil to keep the Menorah lit for 1 night and instead it lasted 8 nights. So 19 Macabees gathered at the AO and entrusted that YHC would lead them to victory. The disclaimer was presented and here is where we began:
SSH x 25 IC
IW x 25 IC
10 Burpees OYO
MC x 25 IC
Mosey over to the speed bumps for directions:
20 merkins 1st bump. Run to 2nd bump. 50 LBC. Continue switching until last bump
Peoples chair until pax done
Bear crawl up and down hill
People chair 90 sec
Speed bumps in other direction, same format
20 CDD; 50 Leg lifts
People Chair on the large metal crate
Speed bump in other direction, same format
20 merkins; 50 full crunch, audibled to 25 after 1st bump
People chair until pax done.
Bear crawl up/down hill
People chair 60 sec
Mosey to side of target for leg workout
20 squates, run backwards across lot 20 side lunges (10 each leg), run backwards to start
Same foramt with 20 squates 20 reverse lunges(10 each leg)
20 squates; 20 forward lunges(10 each leg)
Head to the front of Target and on the way back perform set exercises.
20 diamond merkins in front of Target
20 military merkins in front of Harris teeter
20 wide arm merkins in front of Harris Teeter
50 LBC by Theater
Run back to Home.
Little time left for Mary
Flutter x 30 IC

While the enemy was stong and outnumbered us many to few, the 19 Macabees are even stronger and faught as a unit. Brotheres is arms understand how to watch each otheres back, so the Macabees prevailed in there battle. Great job. It was an honor to lead you into battle.

Moleskin:
A lot of chatter at the beginning, but as we started, that seemed to die down. At one point, radar was talking about his hour spent sitting on the pot. More info than we needed at 5:30 but I’m sure Harris Teeter feels better about what you left them.
For maybe the second time since we started Rebel Yell, I saw the actual flag. Thanks Spackler for bringing it out or should I thank Big, Black and Country. Either way, it was nice to see.

Meathead, Meet Meathands

MOLESKINE

  • Here’s the BB form the last time we did the SSST: http://f3nation.com/2013/10/22/dead-fish-handshake/   Not much to add except it still stinks.  For the record: 200 with 50 lb KB for me.  Pipe up with your totals to benchmark future gains.
  • Not only is good form good for the body, it’s good for the hands.  If you have blisters from today’s session, it could be from gripping too tight, or in the wrong place. Nothing worse for a Meathead than Meathands.
  • Good to have Soul Glo back in the mix after taking a 7 month break sculpting his pencil arms for BRR and marathon training (not that I am one to throw stones….).  Didn’t seem to miss a beat, though, taking the 48kg for a walk.  Opted out on the dog chow, however.
  • Chanel gets Meathead of The Week for actually wearing the uniform.  The rest of you sit in the corner and think about that.

Iced Moleskin:

As YHC has made known to some already, he is signed up for his first ever race, the Joe Davis 5k (sign up here), and while some mileage is a good idea, nothing as crazy as Swift, Fast Twitch, or Devi’s Turn is on tap for this committed 0.0 pax.  Therefore, the #weinke was made to cover 1/2 mile loops of the Hydra AO, working in some basic exercises along the way.  Assuming the #six would run a 10:00 pace (YHC included), each lap should take about 5 min, plus 5 min for the exercise, meaning we’d complete 4+ loops in the 40 minutes allotted, post-COP, for 2.0 miles.  T-claps to all as we completed 5+ loops, for 2.5 miles, completing each lap in about 7-8 minutes!

After COP, YHC planned to lead the pax on a tour of the prescribed layout for the first lap, and then turn the thoroughbreds loose at their own pace.  Beginning with situps, no issues.  On to the fence derkins, again, no problem.  On the way to the concession area for jump-ups, YHC decided to take a route he never, ever takes.  Guess what?  There is a little rain washout area at the bottom of the berm behind the dugout.  Perfect for twisting an ankle and tossing you to the ground.  After calling out the next exercise for the pax, YHC sat this one out to collect his thoughts and assess the damage.  What started as a lot of pain, quickly subsided to a moderate level.  YHC stood, found that it didn’t hurt to walk on, and continued on with the workout.  It may turn out not to have been a good idea (YHC is not wise to this sort of stuff), but it didn’t really hurt to complete the 2.5 miles with the pax.  As I write this, however, it is a little sore, so I’ll continue icing it periodically and see what happens.  Thanks for all your support, and offers of a partner carry.

Aside from all that, great 2nd F out there today.  Really enjoyed chatting with and getting to know my partner, Floor Slapper.  Great to meet some new folks, like Butter and Starfish. Good to see BOG, Chico, Lost Weekend, & Gecko again, as well as the more familiar faces of Pudding Pop, Joker, DK, and Zipadee.  Hydra used to be a staple of YHC’s F3 diet, so it was great to get back out here today.

Thanks as always for the opportunity to lead, guys.  It’s always an honor.

Aye.

The Maul

15 hearty souls arrived at The Maul this morning for a healthy beatdown.  Here’s what we did.

The thang:

Mosey to center parking lot for warm up: 20 SSH, 15 merkins, 20 mountain climbers, 20 slow squats.  (All IC)

Mosey to fountains for: 15 derkins IC, set of 11’s – dips + step ups, 1 lap around both buildings, 15 derkins IC, 10 burpees OYO.

Back to parking lot and get in groups of three.  Line up ~20 yds across from one another.  For every group, one man bear crawls from one side to the other, and the group relays back and forth while the two on the outside do dollies and LBCs.  Keep going for 5 min.  This was somewhat challenging but not terrible.  Good for the abs and core.  10 burpees OYO.

Mosey to back hill behind movie theater.  Nice and steep.  Set of 11’s with donkey kicks at the bottom and merkins at the top.  Judging by the reactions of the PAX, this was the low point of several peoples’ week… and a borderline bad idea.

Parking lot of Mary: 15 Russian Twists, 20 flutters, 15 heels to heaven, protractor.

Finish with another hill exercise.  In groups of three, take turns running up and down while the 2 waiting do “in and out” merkins, i.e. one regular, one wide, one regular, one narrow, one regular, etc.

Announcements:

Convergences in Area 51: next Wednesday 12/24 at Anvil and Wednesday 12/31 at the Maul

Movie Night: “Unbroken” January 10 at Stonecrest.  Details on weekly e-mail with link.

Moleskin: For YHC, my first time back at The Maul since Dromedary started a few weeks back.  Wanted to deliver an old-fashioned beatdown to honor the site where so many great ones have been handed down. Thanks to MT and the PAX for the opportunity to lead.

Preblast: Devil’s Turn – Long Haul Hills – Joe Davis Prep

YHC is in the frozen tundra of Canada this week so Long Haul is taking the driver’s seat of this bullet train they call Devil’s Turn.  Prepare…

The PAX will be launching at 0515 on Thursday from the traditional 4 Mile Creek Greenway parking area on Bevington & Rea Rd.  The course is the standard Piper Glen hill course with the following twist:

Incorporate a 20-40min Threshold run – Threshold pace is defined as “Comfortably Hard”.  Find yours here at the Pace Calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator (instructions for the calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator/instructions/).

The Piper Glen Hill Route can be found in the original post here: http://f3nation.com/2014/06/18/devils-turn-preblast-time-to-hit-the-hills/

Suggestion – warm-up 2+ miles (apartment loop + 1.25 miles).  Do some strides if needed.  Begin Threshold Pace run and hold it for 20 minutes or hold it longer to get back to COT at 0610.  If more distance is needed, head out and back on Bevington Place.

Alternative – do 3 to 4×1 mile at Threshold pace with 1 min rest in between.

The Overall Objective – We are in the middle of a 6 week 5K/10K training schedule that targets the Joe Davis Run.  The only difference between our 5K and 10K training will be the number of sets / repeats recommended.  All training is done at your personal pace that should be based on any recent race entered into the Pace Calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator (instructions for the calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator/instructions/).

You will find the complete Training Plans at the link http://goo.gl/0rSSfQ and Bratwurst can explain them more tomorrow morning during 2nd F warmup/cooldown/COT.  On the tab “5K (Daniels reduced)” there is a plan that you can use if you are a Beginner to Intermediate runner and just targeting the 5K.  If you are an Intermediate to Advanced runner targeting the 10K or 5K, follow the schedule on tab “5K to 15K (Daniels)” that will take you through Joe Davis run and on to the Spring Mud Run. Save the spreadsheet, download it, whatever, use it as your own.

During this time of year, things can get a little stressful. Everyone has a deal that needs to get done before year-end, a client that needs to be reached before the holidays, an errand they have to run while on the way home from work and three Christmas parties to attend this weekend with all your best friends (and their friends who you see once a year, only at these very same parties). This morning Anvil shattered those frustrations, providing 45+ minutes of workout specifically designed to distract you from those pressures and prepare you for the day to come. Who am I kidding, I only planned the workout part. The rest of it came from the PAX:

Quick disclaimer then little baby warm-up run around 1/10 of the parking lot with a treacherous version of backwards/forwards run and a little stop/start action mixed in for fun.

  • Lots of fun stuff today. First, great crew this morning. Always fun to see what mix of folks join in the gloom. Today brought out a great bunch of chatter as well as plenty to chatter about. I think we all had a little bit of stress to offload for a bit. Being guys, we were more than willing to put off responsibility for a little while and behave like the boys we are.
  • Speaking of that, noticed the new “Children at Play” signs posted all over Calvary’s parking lot. I’d like to think we had something to do with that.
  • No #angrywhitesedan sighting although we were almost run over by #randombluecrossover. During the warm-up lap, I purposely avoided the vehicle as it pulled into the lot and sped toward the church. Then, moments later, had to halt the PAX in their tracks as the same #randombluecrossover pulled a reverse and came speeding back across our path. Thankfully, we are nimble.
  • Note to self: although #disclaimer is sufficient, still probably not a good idea to pull the PAX out of a backwards run straight into a forwards run, without turning around. Looked like a random game of Red Rover Red Rover broke out.
  • Chatter was awesome during the COP. I didn’t hear any of it though. #focused.
  • Something about Hannibal looking like an elf, though?
  • Come on, y’all love the Tunnel of Love. What’s not to love? Lots of planking. Crawling on the ground. Getting too close for comfort to Runstopper’s tights. See, nothing but Love there. Two times? Even more to love.
  • So our search and rescue mission was an epic failure until Drop Thrill rolled into COT carrying 3 cones. I thought for sure I’d have to do a solo recon. Props to you Drop Thrill. Mission Accomplished!
  • Big Top = Big Bikini? Big Top is 6’6”. M Big Top is not. When Big Top decides to wear his M’s running vest, let’s just say it comes up a little short. At least he was reflective, sort of. Didn’t really help with #randombluecrossover.
  • I considered trying to post the boisterous banter from today’s name-o-rama, but I’ve decided against it in order to protect the innocent. I also might find the recording useful someday when I need a favor. Always good to have a wrestler in my corner.

#F3Dromedary – 8 PAX-a-milking

8 PAX took up the call on Hump Day to visit the Marvin Ridge High School campus for a little #F3Dromedary’s #12DaysofChristmas

8 PAX-a-milking

The Thang:

  • launch at 0530 to run over to the front of the High School for an opening COP in cadence with Side Straddle Hops x 20, Imperial Walkers x 15, Merkins x 10
  • The Main event of #12DaysofChristmas.  Traditional format of 1, then 2…1, 3…2…1, etc.
  1. Partridge in a Pear Tree – LittleBabyJog around the upper parking area (not the 0.3 mile main lot).  Plank for the 6.
  2. Turtle Doves – Diamond merkins x 4 (work those wings)
  3. French Hens – Duck Walk / Lunge Walk / Frog Hop (20yds)
  4. Calling Birds – Dive Bomber Merkins (emphasis on the up position like a song bird)
  5. Gold Rings – Burpees!
  6. Geese-a-Laying – Monkey Humpers
  7. Swans-a-Swimming – Flutter (4count = 1) – continue flutter until everyone is caught up
  8. Maids-a-Milking – Sumo Squat Jump (just like milking a cow with emphasis on “oh, that was quite a gusher”)
  9. Ladies Dancing – Imperial Squat Walker
  10. Lords-a-Leaping – Star Jack 2count Dips
  11. Pipers Piping – Wheelbarrow with Partner 15 yd Rail Slide
  12. Drummers Drumming – Partner Carry The audible here due to time escapes me…

Moleskin:

  • Some audibles from the original semi-themed plan today due to wet ground and too much of one muscle area.
  • YHC does not normally do #LittleBabyJog, but it proved a good stretch out for the lower-body exercises…  The PAX, including YHC, definitely did not treat it as Sprints, but we’ll get there one day at #Dromedary.
  • Did Brown swear that he “knew” YHC was going to call Burpees at “5 Gold Rings” – some would call that Intuition.  I just listened to an interesting segment on Intuition – Check it out., for it’s mostly BS. Also turns out that we only did 40 burpees total and we did more Diamond Merkins anyway (44).
  • Clothing spectrum – from Stump Hugger w/ short sleeves, shorts, no gloves…all the way to Hot Pants and Gutter Ball covered up with very little flesh exposure.  Temperature is definitely a personal choice.  Check out Backup’s post on what to wear – http://f3nation.com/theforums/topic/cold-weather-workouts-what-to-wear/
  • Working our way through the 12 days seemed pretty simple at first, but noting the clock at 0612 on our last round confirmed that it can fill up the time and provide a great workout.  Grinding on some of those last sets – squats weren’t as deep, chest didn’t quite make it to the ground, and that’s just YHC.
  • What did anyone else see out there?
  • Thanks to Hot Pants for taking us out!

Announcements:

#F3Swift – Adequate as #3Puppets

7 PAX did not heed the #3Puppets warning in the Pre-blast and posted at #F3Swift anyway on Tuesday morning at 0515.

The Thang:

  • Warm-up at 2nd F pace for 1 mile.  5x50m drills.
  • Check the Preblast for full overview and explanation of today’s workout, including a video that explains some of the theory behind the running.
  • Rounds of 200m at R-pace, 200m jog recovery, 200m at R-pace, 400m jog recovery, 600m at R-pace, 400m jog recovery.  Completed 3.5 rounds.
  • Back to COT – Total miles 5.5+

The Moleskin:

  • Preblast originally stated a goal of that 3rd interval to be 800m or 2minutes.  YHC has suffered (#TBQ and #SpilledMerlot) through this workout in the past on most of the 800s, but after watching the Preblast video, got sensible and realized that he’s just not a “really, really good runner” and must not be able to do 800 repeats at that pace.  Running 2min or up to 600m multiple times at your 1mi AYG Pace (a.k.a. R-pace) is good enough work as far as YHC is concerned.  Also, with the Bull Ring, 600m is pretty straightforward to measure.  Due to the adjustment to 600m, this still was confirmed as a #3Puppets workout.  Very Tough, but did not leave the pax as “smoking ashes”.  And no #SpilledMerlot, so not a #4Puppets workout.
  • Never thought the warmup would bring a PAX down, especially ones that pre-rolls as much as TigerRag, but he must of not quite rolled through all of the kinks today.  Sporting a OL-esque knee brace may have factored.  Unfortunately, he gets the LIFO badge so #IceUpSon!
  • Rock Thrill is back out in full post-Marathon mode getting ready to deliver on the Joe Davis Run.  Showing some intensity out there.
  • Wingman is getting the hang of this interval stuff, and he is one of the few to crack the nut on Strava.  Results posted here confirming the 5.5+ miles today: http://www.strava.com/activities/229925154  He also added some segments that will allow “auto-tracking” any time we run the Bull Ring.
  • Haggis keeps slapping his own wrist before/after every interval.  He either has some internal dialogue about not looking at his watch to regulate speed, or Frasier has taught him a way to keep his wrists warm.
  • Long Haul was on Swift rotation this week, and he made sure to make the most of it.  Metro and Fort better be glad this War Daddy will most likely not make the commute for the Joe Davis Run, but he could surprise the PAX.
  • Abacus is Swift’s sturdy undercarriage (OBT holds that title for Metro).  Always consistently grinding and having a huge effort each week.
  • Strava explanation of Laps and Splits – (using examples of our workout today displayed by Strava and Garmin).  In Strava, “Splits” are auto-calculated based on 1 mile increments it analyzes post-run (some PAX get too focused on these Splits for an interval workout and end up running recovery too quickly just to make sure their Average mile pace is high). “Laps” are manual and what you need for intervals (so the Split paces don’t include rest/recovery time), but “Laps” can’t be created when using the Strava smartphone apps.  You also can’t see “Laps”  on the Strava mobile app analysis even if you updated a workout from your Garmin or other watch.  For a Garmin, you get Laps by hitting “Lap” button on your watch.  Garmin has these “Laps” displayed on their mobile and web app, but calls them “Splits”.  This is probably only frustrating for engineers and geeks, but you all need to share in my pain…
