So much for it being cold and rainy
All All MECA BackblastsMay 17th, 2016
14 PAX didn’t fall for what the weather app showed as cold and rainy, which YHC tweeted out that I hate them both. 14 got stronger and the skies were dry. (X = in cadence)
WARMUP
Mosey up and down over the hill, well kind of. Then a #Disclosure that got awkward with odd uses of the English language…nonetheless, all agreed and I think @Tumbler even joined us at that point.
- Over the Ridge: SSH X 10, ISQT (Imperial Squat) X 10
- Over the Ridge: Big Arm Circles/Little Arm Circles (forward/reverse), 10 X Merkins
- Over the Ridge: Slow Windmill X 10, Mtn Climbers X 10

PAX count off by 2’s and why not, yes, 1 more time over the Ridge.

COT
MOLESKIN
- Thanks boys for showing up and hope your heart rate stayed up the entire time. Movement is good and we all need it. With a lot of Cadence counts, pressure is on YHC to work hard and make you stronger.
- #MumbleChatter? of course like always, sound off below.
- TClaps to SoloCup and Escalade for putting in miles before hand….but the flashing light and reflector vest were really creepy looking.
- And not to forget…TClaps to Othello who was sleeping in the front seat for only God knows how long before the PAX arrived.
- @SoloCup, my sincerest apology for the non-traditional count at the end of 16 and 9….PAX, honestly, mentally I was checked out thinking “YES, we are almost done”….and slipped on 16 and 9……In a very weird way, mentally I was about done after 44 minutes of the workout….hard to believe what Tiger Woods did mentally for so long with his balancing act. #EnoughSaid.
- Ink ran out in the sharpie but managed to capture: Hump Day @ Three Monkeys, Something about the Bear, @SoloCup mentioned the 1 yr anniversary of the Boondocks is coming up and your attendance is requested.

@BillyGoat, that was the world’s longest warmup / mary / warmup / mary session ever. I think you had a double espresso this morning! Thanks for the Q!
New rule: all cadence counts are to be evenly divisible by 5.
I thought the 16 or 9 had something to do with the Cubs. I just checked their record 27-9, my Reds are getting left in the dust. Where is Dusty when you need him.
