26 men from Tradition and The Precinct converged for the monthly running of Old Glory which went something like this…
Start at Virtual Shovel Flag (aka back corner of Dingo’s clown van) and run 1 mile loop. Then…
Station #1: 20 x ‘Mericans (front/right corner of Church)
Station #2: 20 x Jump Squats (back/right corner of Church)
Station #3: 10 x Pull-ups (Outback)
Station #4: 20 x WWII Sit-ups (near street)
Back to Shovel Flag…er clown van – That’s 1 round. Rinse & repeat Stations 1-4 as many times as you can (the loop is 0.4 miles). Whistle blown at 6am. Meet back at van, then finish with another mile run, casual this time.
The Moleskin:
Below are the names (in alphabetical order) and number of complete laps plus additional stations completed around the AO (rounded down to nearest quarter lap). If you were here the last 2 months, your previous round totals are posted as well. Write these down somewhere and plan to beat your own record next month! As with last month, I intentionally did not put these in order of who “won” because this event is not a competition with one another, but rather a true “You vs You” opportunity to push your own limits. Whether you did 1 full round or 5, the point was to do YOUR best.

Mario and Urlacher with 5 rounds each!! #strong!
Some of you guys absolutely shot out fast on that first mile!! Easily under 7 min pace!
I am really enjoying the monthly get together!
Yeah, that’s what killed me for the rest of the workout. That’s what I get for trying to hang with Urlacher and Mario! #notasyoungasithink
It felt really good the only thing is that this year no break or no taking it easy on the mud runners good stuff getting us ready for the next one
Good morning as always. A few personal key learnings:
1) Avoid kissing the pavement at all costs
2) Don’t mix a mile in the middle of the circuit
3) Allowing an unnamed Pax to convince me to Rosie Ruiz on the final mile
4) Having Prison Fruit take off looking for me
All in all, we all survived. #NoOprahBombs
Great work out, but we may need to have a flag making workshop. Who is the resident expert?
No resident expert. But I believe with a few beers in us, we can figure it out 🙂
Sounds like I missed a good one. Sorry that I still have the flag. Thanks for the prayer this morning. I appreciate it. More than you know.
Don’t worry about the flag! Just an excuse for us to make some more. Luckily, I ran in the back of the pack for the last mile and didn’t have to push the clown van vs. carry the flag.
Don’t worry a bout the flag bro,we understand hope to see you soon out there with us
I plan to be back next week.
