5 + 1 for Diablo-the plus 1 was Hushpuppy, soon to be known as Rushpuppy since his mile time has dropped significantly with all the running he has been doing. We started with the pledge then headed to Gastone’s hill. I had my nice warm winter gloves on so my plan was make it a leg day. We stayed true to this and hit each mailbox on the right with 10 squats on the way up-I was cussing Clavin on the way up after about 8 or so mailboxes-WHY SO MANY MAILBOXES, CLAVIN????!!!!! I think I will now call them “hellboxes.”

We finally made it to the top then did again in reverse with only 5 squats at each mailbox-nur on the way down which was not so bad. Once we go to the bottom we headed over to the school and stopped for some step-ups at the brick wall along the breezeway. 20 each leg with rucks on got a little burny on the legs (yes Stroganoff, burny is a word. If you would spend more time reading instead of watching TV your vocabulary would probably improve). We then headed sort of towards the steps but I got sidetracked when I saw the grassy hill-this was much better than the steps and I plan to return soon for more work on said hill. We went up and down a few times then headed back to start. We got back in time for the COT then all headed out.

Along the way DaVinci volunteered to Q next week then we got to planning a Waffle House trip-initially we figured this would be good to do during January around the birthdays of HIPAA or Defib, then after some discussion it seemed better timing to do it when we could spend a little more time at breakfast (such as a holiday). WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW, NEXT THURSDAY IS THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS AND IS PRETTY MUCH A HOLIDAY AND AS FAR AS WE KNOW, NONE OF US HAVE TO WORK???!!!!! We thus proclaimed next Thursday our Waffle House Convergence for Diablo Sammich. We will invite the Pubbers and offer to drive them back to their cars if they would like-of course they are welcome to ruck with us back to Diablo Sammich start with us after getting some scattered and smothered good stuff then we can drive them back. All are welcome-come join us next Thursday at the new Waffle House on Union-we should be there by 0600. If you are lucky, they have a juke box and I’ll bring the quarters….

Whoopee
