3 stage cruise

All All MECA Backblasts

January 20th, 2016 By Dingo

10 men arrived at The Valley ready to take on some of the longest hills this area has to offer!

1st stage – Right onto Mallard, all the way down and up to Harris, Back to school

2nd stage – Up to Prosperity and back to school

3rd Stage – Down the Hill of Shadows and back up.

4.1 miles if all stages completed.

The Moleskin;

  1. Good work men!  Most knocked out all 3 stages.
  2. Loads of hill work!  Running from the 7eleven up to Prosperity is just one long, big, steep hill!
  3. Route allowed for guys to go out at their own pace.  Most guys paired up and pushed each other to keep going!
  4. Great work Buckwheat!  A whole 1min faster on your pace this week, compared to last week!  And not sure if everyone noticed, but after we prayed, Buckwheat looked at me and said, c’mob lets go and knock out the hill of shadows!  And we did!  We may have done the impossible!!  Turned Buckwheat into a runner!!
  5. Jumanji – You are just impressive brother!
  6. Guinness – Great job setting the pace!
  7. Mutant & Gentle Grizzly – You guys crushed it today!  Even overtook Guinness on that second stage!
  8. Man Down & Gazebo – Strong push guys!  Gazebo had no quit in him today!!
  9. R2D2 and Triple Threat – Way to push through some serious hill work!
  10. There will not be a workout at The Valley on Friday

    Great, work by everybody!! Thank You Man Down for the F2 and pushing me harder than my mind wanted. My legs may not agree but who cares, endurance needs to improve for the Ultimate Mud Run Challenge!!!

      Enjoyed the conversation brother, and there’s no way I would’ve pushed that hard without you. This was my first time out after more than a month, so I was definitely feeling it!

    Let’s not get carried away and classify me as a runner just yet….. Still in the run/walk stage ;-).

    One minute faster pace w/ hills.?.?.? Would’ve guessed just the opposite! Thanks for pointing that out, Dingo. Thanks again for keeping up with the six (ME)!!!!

      Great job Buckwheat! And T-claps for tackling the Hill of Shadows AFTER the COT! That made you a “runner.”

      1. Dingo January 20, 2016 at 6:47 pm

        I thought he was joking at first! But he took off running and conquered that damn hill of shadows….

    The first shall be last. Or is it the first shall be fartsacking?

  5. Guinness January 20, 2016 at 12:48 pm

    Good cruise. I pushed it in the beginning to stretch myself. That cruise might be a good Repeato to get pax engaged in running, Dingo. @Buckwheat, you’re a runner now. Any response @Farm?

    1. The Farm January 20, 2016 at 3:28 pm

      Yeah yeah! I fartsacked unintentionally. I just commented because @Buckwheat told me I couldn’t! #reversepsychology??

      I was wondering why we have never done that before? Years ago when I worked for Park and Rec, I would drive down there on my way to work at 5:30am and see people running up and down there and I thought they were C. R. A. Z. Y. !!!
