I donated mine to the Boy Scout troop. I’m sure some dad is thanking me for his sore back.

no notes no problem!

Date: 2024-10-22 AO: 3rdf-timekeeper Q: soft_pretzel PAX: bratwurst, Hippie, tigerrag, frasier, citgo, Gump, Wegmans FNGs: None COUNT: 8 soft_pretzel didn’t need his written notes (left at home) to recall his overview and talk from memory. Leading with some scripture that addressed violence, he led the PAX through the discussion on Chapter 5 – Doesn’t Religion Cause Violence?
And the PAX got a little squeamish at smaller accommodations than normal until the stink eye forced the single soul out of the normal high top table spot.
Gump up next for Chapter 6 on 10/29 – “how can you take the Bible literally?”

orionid letdown

Date: 2024-10-22 AO: skunk-works Q: Mountain Momma PAX: Smokey, Header, ChickenWing, lois, Cottonmouth, Spikeball FNGs: None COUNT: 7
WARMUP: started by Header after some technical difficulties by the Q with getting the speaker connected to the phone THE THANG: catch me if you can to the portico with a (gasp) 10 merkin chaser. Partner renegade rows with a run up the hill between each round Circle of fire – Two hand overhead press – Good morning Nashville – Flutter press – 4 more exercises but I can’t remember since it’s so late in the day…. Catch me if you can back to the launch MARY: 5 minutes of core work, hoping to see some meteors from the orionids, but no dice ANNOUNCEMENTS: accelerate campaign on hold to 2025 COT: life is a vapor, make the most of it Praise for 3 baptisms post crusade

New runway – is it too short?

Date: 2024-10-22 AO: swift Q: bratwurst PAX: citgo, flipper, teddyf3, drive_by, Hippie, soft_pretzel, fleetwood, Wegmans FNGs: None COUNT: 9 0515 – launch from Towne Bank in Ballantyne & mosey by Loch Ness towards the only official greenway section in Ballantyne Corp Park and part of the Carolina Thread Trail. Run out halfway on the greenway section to come back to the junction with Ballantyne Corp Dr. 0525 – dynamic stretching 0530 – start 6min intervals at Threshold Pace (7.5 / 10 effort) done in Out-and-back style (all start together, U-turn halfway, finish where you started). 1min recovery. 0605 – head to COT 0617 – a little late back to COT…Cobains!
Billed as the smoothest, flattest, bump-free asphalt in Ballantyne, it seemed to live up to the hype with a moderately meandering and slightly rolling path. Although the 0.5mi length is questionable, for citgo ran out of room with his sub 6:00/mi pace over 3 minutes. The 1min rest was never enough…
YHC never said the brightest or driest section of Ballantyne Corporate Park, but neither seemed to impact the PAX too much that either didn’t bring a headlamp or didn’t dry the damp spots from a few sprinklers.
Great group out there that seemed to get the out & back pacing down after Round 1 when there were a lot that went out a little too hard. Of course the 1min rest helped with that to slow the PAX down on Round 2 (well, all but Gump that doesn’t like being passed), so PAX were finishing very close to the goal of back at the starting line. Notable exceptions citgo and flipper that seemed to negative split the back half of each interval.
Solid efforts from a group of teddyf3 fleetwood soft_pretzel that must have made a pact (or were simply pacing together) to never get passed on the back half.
Welcome Site FNG @Wegmans from The Fort ! TBD if we run our 1mi at the FUTURE Wegmans location next week.
Only 1 more week of Programmed Threshold Pace! Next week we will put it all together with a you vs. you 1mi Interval (rounds TBD) on a 1minute Rest.
That also means we are looking for a November Q! Plans fell through due to a PAX work schedule, so we need someone to take the reins. Pay is competitive! Signing bonus is amazing!
COT: – prayers for the family of soft_pretzel friend Alex who suddenly passed away last week from bladder cancer leaving a wife and 10yo daughter behind.
