I Love the smell of Fresh Mulch in the morning


11 Weekend weary men seemed to wander into the Mt Mourne parking lot for another Monday battle with the Monster MIle and see what the beast had to offer this week. As they dismounted from the vehicle that brought them, their was an unfamiliar but recognizable smell of Mulch in the air. This weekend several members of the pax descended upon the AO to help the fine church people spread Mulch. Since extra care was taken by the pax to make sure the areas we most commonly use had a couple extra inches for cushiness and bounce we decided to mosey that way and test it out:

Warmup:

SSH x10 IC

IST x10 IC

Windmill x10 IC

Greg Louganis Merkins about 5 or 6

Mosey to medical building stopping at stone tables and benches:

Mosey to parking lot for Merkin Suicides

Run to first line and do 1 merkin, run back

Run to 2nd line, do 2 merkins and run back

Mosey to far parking lot passed MRI machine behind building that has claimed several of the pax manhhod:

Run to far end and do 20 Merkins,

Run back and do 4 Squats

Repeato decreasing Merkins by 4 and Increasing squats by 4 until we got to 4 Merkins and 20 Squats

-Thanks to all the pax that showed up on Saturday to help the church spread some new mulch on "our" playground that we use at least once a month. The Greg Louganis merkin was a good way to test out their work, Epic Fail. We just moved on from there.

-Since there were no Ruckers present this morning I am assuming some well deserved tapering has commenced, unless you guys had some other crazy training assignment. T-Claps to all of you that have taken on the challenge of the HTL. Much Respect for you fine men.

-T-Claps to Honeymoon for competing in the Spartan Sprint as a sad clown. Rumor has it that he crushed Randy Moss.

-Don't forget about the 3rd annual RACECITY anniversary party at the Crack's pool.  Rumor has it there is a hot tub there

-MayDay was present for his second Monday post but in not accounted for above due to not being signed up on website yet

-Field Trip tomorrow to PAIN-insula to scoop up the ghost flag

-For those of you who were counting, I know Tick-Tock was even if not out loud, we did 250 Merkins today. Not bad, not 1 Burpee though!

-Always an honor to lead you men and always humbling that you follow.

Aye!
