The Moleskin:

Normally a bigger crowd but this was a strong group. Spec and Wet Nut showed up and conquered. I would like to propose a new name for Wet Nut since he does not like the name and it can be taken the wrong way. We can change his name to Shrek. Really I don’t know why but it is a good name and needs to be used. Let me know if you are apposed. If not it will be so.

Please consider we might have plenty of people to help in the next week if the path takes a crazy turn for Gastonia. Let’s check on each other if that happens and help our brothers out. Once we are are all set and safe lets show the community what we are made of. Hopefully this does not happen.

Prayer request for all Houston and the recovery and for the upcoming Irma.

Gastone Out

 

Memory

13 PAX posted Tuesday at Midoriyama. YHC has had a full plate lately and completely forgot he had the Q. Thankfully Tooltime called to tell me he was stuck in traffic and may not make it. He called like he was calling into work….hilarious! During our conversation he advised he was calling in due to me having the Q and the risk of ridicule for missing after his Q at Folsom on Saturday. He made it and I made it so all worked out well! The PAX were warned that if I don’t have anything planned and have to create it on the fly it will probably end badly.

Warmup:

Don Q x 20ic

SSH x 15ic

Don Q’s on the ground x 10ic

Let’s mosey

The Thang:

We moseyed to the field where we keep our blocks. Partner up and one partner gets a block. At this point I think everyone thought we were going to stay there and do something…. Nope! Let’s mosey. Switch the block with your partner when needed. We had an odd number so YHC didn’t have a partner to switch with so that sucked. I was thinking about hitting the trail for a long mosey but that was out. We went to the far side of the far soccer field for some Mary.

Round 1-1 partner runs across the field the other does the exercise. You know how it works.

100-Overhead presses

200-Weighted squats

300-Leg lifts while holding the block up in the air

Round 2-

50-Weighted lunges

100-Curls

150-In/Outs while holding the block over head

Mosey back. Thanks to Pizza Man and Canteen for partnering with me on the way back! Block was getting heavy!

Everyone pushed hard today. Great job! For those that haven’t Q’d a workout get on the schedule. After you do it a while it becomes second nature. You can just show up and make some pain happen. All in all we covered 2.6 miles and picked some stuff up and put it down.
