Poor Whoopee. (Wow! Those are words that you probably never thought you’d read in a backblast.)

Really though, the guy shows up at the Coconut Horse for his normal Sunday morning run and he gets bombarded by a couple of guys looking to practice their mudrun in less than a week!

A lesser man might have “modified” his way into a jog all alone but I think it was the fact that Madoff brought his 2.0 that SHAMED Whoopee into joining us.

The Thang:

We ran (thanks to Messi, we REALLY R-A-N) 2.8 miles that brought us to Martha Rivers where we did a “MudRun Dress Rehearsal”.  Did a .77 mile loop and stopped for:

  • pull-ups
  • burpees
  • squats
  • merkins

Next we did the shorter loop (.33 miles?) and stopped for:

  • jump-ups
  • derkins
  • incline merkins
  • chin-ups
  • squats
  • burpees
  • merkins

Then ran back to Harris Teeter. I guess the 13 year old talking about running sub-7-minute mile 5Ks motivated us because our final pace was about 8:20 after the 4.8 miles and extra credit were completed.

Strong work men! Thanks for the push Messi!!!

COT:

Prayers for us to be better sons, husbands, fathers and thankful for Moms in our lives.
