The Vern Marches On

A lot happening in Isotope this Tuesday morning — Mini-Me birthday beatdown, Jersey Boy's VQ at Gladiator, the always popular Blender, Viking, and Iliad, but The Vern must go on.  So, 3 of us met at 131 Main for the ensuing pain.  If you're new to The Vern, here's how it goes:

Run to JV Washam from the 131 Main parking lot.  Then complete 5 rounds of the following:

10x pull ups

20x dips

25x merkins

30x LBC

Between each exercise run to bb hoop and back.  

When finished, we did a little Mary at the school and then all ran back to 131 Main for COT.

Moleskine:

– With the ~3/4 mile each way to the school, mileage total was right around 4 miles.  This is a good workout to get in mileage and maintain strength during running season

– Amen is looking great out there.  He's been putting in the mileage and it shows!

– There wasn't anybody there when Beetlejuice and I pulled up — would we just get coffee and go home?  Thankfully, Amen rolled in and we felt compelled to Vern.

– It started to rain but held off for the most part, so we had a dry time.  The decision to move the lap at JVW to go around the basketball pole instead of onto the playing field was a great one.  Nice to avoid the mud and prevent tearing up the field

– Announcements were made, per Nightstick's request, and Beetlejuice took us out.
