Final act of Threshold

Final act of Threshold

Date: 2023-09-26 AO: swift Q: bratwurst PAX: gumbo, frasier, Sherpa, Hippie, kirby, midriff, wildturkey, Gold Digger FNGs: None COUNT: 10 WARMUP: Round the bull ring for a 1mi warm-up while following a warmed-up Frasier and Gold Digger made it a tad quicker than normal. Gold Digger peels off to start his separate workout. Wild Turkey heads off to parts unknown with the ruck.
Dynamic exercises inside the ring.
THE THANG: 10min at Threshold Pace. 2min rest to regroup. Repeato 3x.
Thankfully, we built to this over the course of 4 weeks. Frasier is back after week 1 where he led the 3min on hills, but we opted for as flat a single-looped route as we could find in the Corp Park today. Definitely the peak of the last 4 weeks, for YHC needed the extra motivation of chasing someone to get through interval #3 today, which is evidently in the harder anti-clockwise direction with the uphills coming in the last 1/3 of the interval.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – 30+ now signed up for the Homecoming Ultra 5K on October 14th! Good progress, but still some time to go to get more PAX involved to participate, cheer, socialize, or donate.
COT: Soft Pretzel took us out for the combined Bagpipe + Swift COT.

5mi, some stretch

Date: 2023-09-25 AO: blakovery Q: bratwurst PAX: frasier, hairball, gumbo, bunker FNGs: None COUNT: 6 5mi on the Landen Meadows to Ardrey route. Hairball joined for the first part before heading off on a workout, but then he was there again after a wrong turn, then headed off again, then he was there again after a wrong turn, then he was off finally into the darkness.
Still cooler, but not entirely cool yet today.
Bratwurst and Gumbo for some post-run stretching.

it’s almost impossible to break your nose

Date: 2023-09-25 AO: firestarter Q: Odd Job PAX: Franky, Watergate, Point Break, SweetWater, Rudy FNGs: None COUNT: 6 WARMUP: SSH, IW, arm circles, merkins, down dog, Carolina DD
THE THANG: The jump rope was handed to Sweetwater to start. We stopped about 10 times during the workout for a round of a) 100 rope jumps for whoever had the rope, and b) an exercise called by whoever had the rope last. Some of the called exercises were squats, curb jumps, wall step ups, v-ups, heels to heaven, LBC.
Stopped at the playground for a round of explosive merkins. We did clap merkins, shoulder tap merkins, and hip tap merkins. No one fell on their nose.
Stopped by target to get the cinder blocks and did about 20 man makers / blockies.
Did other stops for archer merkins and a few more rounds of explosive merkins.
MARY: in the mix.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: the Homecoming ultra 5K is fast approaching. Sign up and donate today, it’s a great cause as Midriff’s family is growing with the addition of their new son. It’s going to be an awesome day with your friends. Live music and college ball on the screen. You can do as little as one 5k loop to the full 50k, whatever works for you.
COT: Thanks for the take out Rudy.

Still Chubby Hubby

Date: 2023-09-25 AO: chubby-hubby Q: baracus PAX: baracus, Broken Arrow, Full House, hopper, hoover, Spammer FNGs: None COUNT: 6 Six men arrived on this cool, crisp Monday morning to get their day off to a good start. Apparently their should have been at least seven. Hoover arrived with 75 pounds of who knows what in a backpack with grand plans to ruck the hills of Horsey; however, his ruck-mate Horsehead was nowhere to be found. I think the Chester nightmares got the better of him. So we all set off for the greenway to get our miles. Five runners all went for 5+ and Hoover rucked his 75 lb sack for about 2.5. Good company and conversation as usual. We’ll done this morning men!
COT: Pray for Hoover’s family and safe travels to Long Island as his wife’s family grieves and handles arrangements after the loss of her uncle
