15 PAX posted during a cool afternoon at Midoriyama. It’s always strange when the temps start to drop. YHC came in hot due to his M being delayed at work. T-claps to Pizza Man for leading off with the warmup. I’m not sure what all they did but they were doing burpees when I rolled in. It appeared everyone was good to go so we started to mosey.

The Thang:

We went down to the farthest soccer field for sprint intervals. It’s Tuna 200 week for some of us so I thought we all could do some prep work. We did some form of these numerous times.

Sprint to the 50 and jog to the other end

Sprint to the other end, jog back to the 50 and walk it out to the end.

Sometimes we started with 5 high knee jumps or 5 plyometric merkins. We did this for about 15 minutes give or take then went to the big hill at the dog park.

Alternating lunges up the hill and walk back down.

Left leg only lunges up the hill and walk back down. Rinse and repeat with the right leg.

Walk backwards up the hill and backwards down several times.

Sprint up and down several times.

Back to the sprint intervals. We did the same ones several more times before we started heading back. On the way back we did intervals from light pole to light pole then we finished with a cool down mosey to the park entrance and back.

COT:

SFN Christmas Town race at 37. Get signed up if you are not already! Come out to the advisory meetings and help run this thing. We are closing in on the year end and it is time for some HIM’s to step up and take on some leadership positions.

Pledge

Prayer Request- F3 Brother and family in Area 51 who lost their son, Coach K’s family member lost a child, Lil Sweets young family member received a kidney transplant. All the guys on the road this weekend for the Tuna 200.

Moleskin:

Everyone pushed hard today! Those sprints got the breathing going. Especially the full field distance. I was hoping Ash Pond was going to merlot but he fought it back. The morning after I’m regretting this a little. My knee is killing me! Def Leppard may have to run some of my race legs this weekend. It seems lately I’ve been feeling it a little more. Maybe it’s turning 38?
