It’s Raining, It’s Pouring

Event Date

Feb 19, 2019


I had plans to run to the stadium – but wasn't sure that would work when I looked at the forecast this afternoon.  100% chance of rain at 7:00.  As I drove to the Green – I began to formulate Plan B – becasue the forecast was correct.  Probably too much of a mess to climb the stadium – so I figured DUMC and Sandbags would give us a chance to duck under cover, if we wanted to.  

I wasn't sure what to expect as I pulled in.  Stalker and The Duke were already on the library porch, and Hipster wasn't far behind.  

Stalker tried to delay the launch by giving us all a lesson in why we shouldn't be murdering our Crepe Myrtles – but at 7:00 we cut the arbor talk short – and began the workout.

Warmorama – SSH, IST, Windmill, Mountain Climbers, Cotton Pickers – let's mosey to DUMC and grab a sandbag.

The Thang – 

We crossed the parking lot and set up shop under the drive-thru lane.  

We did a lot of Sand Bag exercises – only stopping every so often to take a lap around the parking lot in the downpour.

At one point – 2 nice ladies came out of the church and said that we were brave, or stupid, probably they said stupid.

Because my original plan was scrapped due to the weather – I was making things up on the fly – and trying to stay one step ahead of the PAX.  Although the conditions weren't ideal for  it – throwing in the parking lot laps – took the pressure of thinking up the next exercise off of YHC.  

Put the bags back – mosey back to the Green.

No cover yet – find a spot on the wall for dips.

Now find cover.

Mary –

Some of the best Mary exercises you ever did see.

Recover, Recover

Soaked to the Bone Moleskine

– Stalker said we were short of 45 minutes and he was going to tell on me – to DUVALL.  Please!!  

– Good group, and it was fun to splash in puddles like we were kids. Adult Recess.

– My schedule – kids basketball, work and travel – have had me missing Sweatshop – hope this is the start of getting back to REGULAR status – although TINY has the Thursday Q and he's already talking smack.  Maybe I start REGULAR status next Tuesday.

– We prayed for a family from Stalker's church that lost a child – Baby Hope.  We prayed for guidance for The Duke's son who is working to find some direction – something we could all probably use a little more of.

– We missed Hipster at Summit for a post workout brewski – the rest of has had one and had a good discussion.

– Always and honor and a pleasure to be with you fine men.

Peace,

Holiday
