To the End of the Road

Does that take you back to middle school (or high school for some) dance?

COP
15 IC Mt Climbers
10 IC each side Glute Bridge (We apparently have 2 versions of this)
20 IC SSHs

The Thing
Run to the back for max pull-ups plus 2 negatives

Back to the parking lot – 22 'Mericans OYO, plank for the 6

We are doing a neighborhood running with cul-de-sac pain stations… pearls on a string, Why? Because the Q needs miles.

2 wrongs don't make a right, but 3 lefts do…

  • Go left up Crepe Ridge, Left on Silver Jade, Left on Augusta Ridge. In the cul-de-sac, 5 burpees and plank for the 6
  • Back to Silver Jade, go left, then left on Buena Vista and Left on Morning Dove. In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 10 IC Tony Hawk
  • Run back up Morning Dove, left on Buena Vista, Left on Osprey Run. In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 10 IC CDD
  • Run back up Osprey Run, left on Buena Vista, Left on Hawkes Bay.In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 10 IC Squats (Skipper shows us what a real squat should look like)
  • Run back up Hawkes Bay, left on Buena Vista, Left on Eagle Pointe.In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 10 IC Monkey Humpers
  • Run back up Eagle Pointe, left on Buena Vista, Left on Sierra View Dr.In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 10 IC 'Mericans

At this point Spork has to bounce and asks for directions back to the AO. Also a hint for anyone with the spacewatch. It has a "back to start feature". Apparently Skipper has had too much, doubts that we can make it back by 0615 and he also runs back.

  • Remaining PAX run back up Sierra View, Left on Buena Vista.In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. 20 IC LBC
  • Run back up Buena Vista, left on Island Waters Dr. In the cul-de-sac, DO NOT plank for the 6, turn around, go get the 6 gather up style. 10 IC Peter Parkers

Mater was a little upset that he didn't get to see the cul-de-sac

  • Run back up Island Waters, left on Buena Vista, Left on Rippling Cove. In the cul-de-sac, plank for the 6. Run back the corner of Buena Vista and Silver Jade 10 IC Dr. W
  • Run back to the launch pad. 10 IC Box Cutters as the clock strikes 0615

3.5 miles completed with exercises is not too shabby

In the mix

Reflection

Hebrews 12:1-3

1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

Moleskin

  • YHC is half listening to the MC during COP and just says "we're doing that next" after someone mentions Dr. W but then does SSHs.
  • Skipper mentions it would be nice to have his water with him. How many 3-mile runs do you go on where you need water? YHC suggests he find a sprinkler head to sit on.
  • Shirley, Hefty and Spork dominate on the runs, but somehow Spork's mouth still outruns his legs.
  • Mater reminds YHC that we did all of these exercises already this week
  • Vortex reminds Skipper at 0600 that with 15 minutes left we can cover 2 miles in that time and that he didn't need to leave. He probably just needed to drop a deuce.
  • Dandelion lays the MC on thick today. I guess that's payback.
  • Skipper will bring his running shoes next time.
