So Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow this morning, predicts 6 more weeks of winter. Would have thought we would have seen in our morning journey, Harrisburg Harry and his posse of Harrisburg Groundhogs prepping for the big day. No such luck. What 6 of the PAX did see was a lot of pavement, grass, rocks and bleacher steps in a mosey and burpee full morning in the gloom after the shovel flag was planted.

Warmup:
10 burpees on your own. Indian run through lot and to stadium ticket counter area, last guy in line does 3 burpees.

SSH x13; IST x 13; Windmill X13;

The Thang:
– Partner up for session, runner 1 runs to stop sign on Raging Ridge Road and back while partner burpees away, keeping track of burpees. Switch running for burpees, burpees for running.
– Indian Run to Caldwell Road with 3 burpees @ back.
Runner 1 runs to access road to Stadium and back while partner burpees away, keeping track of burpees. Switch running for burpees, burpees for running.

– Mosey through brush and down hill to practice football field.
– Runner 1 runs to farthest soccer goal on field, while partner burpees away, keeping track of burpees. Switch running for burpees, burpees for running.
– Indian Run to rock pile. Runner 1 runs to far uprights while partner on back does rock presses. Switch running for rock presses, rock presses for running.

COT

Moleskin:
1. Lighter than normal Thursday contingent this morn. Sure we had a strong showing @ Polar Bear / GoRuck special training today up North.
 No fartsackers @F3Harrisburg?
2. Super hard work and great sweats by all. Burpee totals ranged from 130 (Bull) to “about” 40. Averaged 81 each.
3. Have not missed a Tu or Thur in ’17, know Bull, Big Bird and Posh @ a minimum have not as well. Weird not seeing Clueless and Othello this morning, sure they got their “Phil” somewhere.
4. #TClaps to Kotter and Solo Cup for strong efforts all around.
5. UNCC 49er Gold Rush 5k this Saturday @ 9a. Any other triple downers like Solo Cup with Bull Run, Rail Yard and 5k?
6. “You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do” – Carl Gustav Jung

  1. Sounds like a brutal beatdown @Casper. No fartsacking here, did the Spartan Training at Tradition with @Clueless, @SSMinnow and @Kojak. Good time, missed your Q. Stay strong!

  2. Appreciate the opportunity to Q such a fine group. “It doesn’t get easier but you will get stronger”
