You can blame Stray or Soprano, or maybe Amen

AO


Blame Amen:  Amen got sucked in to the allure of pick up basketball so YHC made the Q swap

Blame Soprano:   YHC liked a Soprano led Berean attended in the year of our Lord twenty-and-twenty-three so I modified it slightly.  So if you got a great workout and will be sore, blame Soprano

Blame Stray:   Read on and you’ll likely come to the conclusion you should blame Stray.

COT happened and it included the most well enunciated name-o-rama in the history of Isotope

Blame it on the moleskin:

  • Flattered that Stromboli saw me on the Q and wanted to come.  Looking for a good workout without too much running.  I had a good report with Big Mean on Friday so I upped the running amount just a bit.  I’m assuming you didn’t mind because you were flying up that ramp.  See you at Wilderness where we won’t get out of the parking lot.
  • Even though today was chalk full of Repeato, pax was still only batting .300 on guessing the next exercise.  Either that or they just wanted merkins all the time.
  • 9 Lives is starting a campaign to rename Imperial Storm Trooper to Vertical Freddy Mercury.  And you know what, I think there is a grass roots market for that just waiting to jump on board.
  • Many thanks Gnarly Goat for entrusting me to lead this morning.  Enjoy the slopes.
  • What I learned today:   I like throwing Dora in to a workout because it allows pax to press hard on their portions (you vs you) and always gets some unspoken competition going amongst a couple pairs.  Today I wasn’t breathing too well so I threw in Dora mainly so I didn’t have to call cadence the whole time.  T-claps to Soprano for partnering up with me and doing the lion’s share of the Dora.  I would do an exercise and he’d run.  I’d give him a number.  When I came back he would have done 2-3 times as many as me.  But he also would tell me good job.  So be like Soprano.  When needed, do 125% so that someone else can do 75% and still feel like they were whole.
