Coconut Derby

Routes were meant to be raced and belts were meant to be defended.  Time to put the belt on the line with a good old fashioned horse race at the Coconut Horse.

Sunday, September 3rd

0630 Launch

5(ish) mile loop.  For route details, check Strava.  Or ask.

Start/Finish line will be the crosswalk at Hoffman and Kendrick.  So we will start from where we finish.  Purists be damned.

No fine print needed, if you need to cheat to get the belt, you don’t deserve it.

The cream will rise to the top.  Ohhhhhhhh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!

Yabba Dabba Doo

For the record, this workout sucks.

Fourteen PAX and one rucker appeared at 0530 at Tequila Sunrise for a Q from the Nantan.  Bubba Sparxx was supposed to have some PAX who will remain anonymous show up to ruck with him, but alas, he was solo.  #hatetoseeit

We did get to see Quiche and Golddigger.  Quiche reported that he recently thought of doing a burpee.  #progress  We also discussed the proper pronunciation of the country “Pakistan”.

Somebody said something smelled good and it was likely YHC compliments of Defib’s favorite laundry detergent, Tyler.  “Diva” in particular.   Virus discussed the merits of washing shirts in Vinegar along with Jane Fonda.  Recently the Art of Manliness had an article about getting the stank out of workout shirt.  HOT temps, light on detergent, and white vinegar is what I remember.  Or you can just use Tyler Diva or if you have a different style, Tyler High Maintenance would work also.  Quiche probably uses that.

Nonetheless, the disclaimer and warm up was given and we started like this.  SSH, Squats, Imperial Walkers, 5 burpees for a train that we happened to hear.

Mosey to Foursquare church for the famous Berp and Merk 1-10.  Some wanted to have the count descend at 8 but Blueprint got the right answer and kept us going up.

Next we moseyed to the cemetery.  Lunge walk, then skip, then mosey and do 30 Big Boys.  Tiger called out the PAX for facing downhill and said they should do 50 big boys so the Q made it happen.  We then moseyed to the low point of the cemetery and ran up the steep hill.  This would be the top of the modified Bombs route.  We partnered up and ran to the bottom.
P1 starts with 50 burpees while P2 runs up the hill and back.  Then 100 squats, then 150 Merkins, then 200 OH claps, and finally 250 Moroccan nightclubs.  Due to time constraints, we Omaha’d back to start while doing some more skips and moseying.  We arrived one minute late (Q-fail).  We finished with the Pledge of Allegiance, announcements, nameorama, and COT.

Prayer requests this morning go out to Norwood on his surgery along with Huckleberry, Turtleman, Radar who lost his cousin, Tiger’s Dad, Termite, Teachers, Marriages, family, and friends.

Watt’s Up gets credit for naming the backblast.  He proclaimed the title on an early trip up the hill during BOMBS, or since it was modified, we called it BSMOM’s.  YHC considers it an honor.  It was nice to see a good crowd this morning and get to partner with Kool Aid and meet Fruity Pebbles.
We also had a good Friday coffeerama at F&B’s where we EH’d the cook.  BOLO for Tony at an AO near you soon.

It is Serena’s birthday today.  The big 23!  He gets to enjoy a nice Italian meal tonight at Momma Ricotta’s and the PAX demanded that Breaker break out his wallet and pay for it!
