When I heard my Friend Bambi may be posting on Wed Morning I knew I could not fartsack. My running has been hampered of late by a nagging injury which has led me to skip a few workouts for fear of the 3 mile sprint. I asked on the twitterer who had the Q for Wed morning and Gastone said it was open if I wanted it. Not sure which day was Snoballs and Which day was the Black Knight, I blasted out that “Hushpuppy has the Q for Marha’s Black Knights Snoballs on Wed”. Needless to say, Gastone was not impressed and pointed out (again) that each workout has it’s own name and promptly loaded my name into the Q list on google drive as Hushpoopy. Welcome to the kitchen, there’s the heat.
Bambi was already present when I arrived, Several runners came in from EC as the clock wound down so we began. Disclaimer: I’m an idiot, you’re an idiot for being here, i’m not a professional. Modify as needed, there’s no one to sue because if you do something to get hurt then you’re a big idiot. Everyting I say is a suggestion and my biggest suggestion is that you go back home and go to bed.
No takers, so we honored the stars and stripes.
Warmup:
Imperial walkers IC x 15, Merkins IC x 10, Flutter Kicks X 15 IC, and the runners training for the BRR took off.
Introduced the Split Jack, which is like a Merkin only with feet kicking out front, one at a time like a dancing girl. 15 IC.
Mosey to the Martha’s parking lot. Circle up, count off for effect, then the next exercise, Aiken Legs:
Frankly, I didn’t get past the A’s in the Exicon as I searched for something for my Weinke. Aiken legs looked cool and seemed to fill some time, so I called it.
20 Box jumps (on the curb), 20 Squats, 20 lunges, 20 Split Jacks: OYO. Wash, rinse, repeat for a total of 3 times.
After a 10 count it was time for some Dora 123. 100 Merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC’s. (I originally called LBFC’s but realized that would take a really long time so Omaha’d).
after another 10 count, time for 4 corners on a short parking lot around some islands. Started at 12 and worked downward at each corner, Merkins OYO.
After another 10 count, the time was 10 til finish so we mosey’d back to Snoballs Black Knight’s Parking lot.
6 minutes of Mary, with some LBFC’s (really wanted to do these), Flutter kicks, Dying Cockroaches, and I think crunches.
Runners arrived just in time. 6:15
Announcements: BRR, a driver is needed, Support for the Ladies getting after it on Saturday morning launching a women’s morning workout weekly at Dallas park 8am on Saturdays. Encourage your M to be a part. Convergence this Saturday for CSPAN sendoff from Fort Mill, Clown cars leave the Roses parking lot Belmont at 5:30am. Whetstone project is in effect. More than mentorship, Whetstone is designed to sharpen a man for life. The Stone gives up something when he is applied, The blade gives up something when he is sharpened, but both gain wisdom and purpose through the relationship. See Monk if you’d like to be involved as a Stone or a blade.
Prayers for Monks coworker, who’s child passed from cancer. Madoff prayers for Nikki Bailey fighting cancer, Sargento’s wife with knee injury, and some others.
Moleskin: It’s easy to get whiny and make excuses to quit. For as long as I can remember I’ve always hurt. But the fact is, I hurt more when I sit still. I hurt less when I move and when I move with you. See you in the Gloom.
Hushpuppy.
