Nine men (well…really more like 8.5) posted to see what YHC had in store this morning. @R2D2, who said he would be starting a pre-run at 0500, but apparently didn’t start until 0505 am, pre-ran with @Laser. As YHC was pulling into the parking lot at 0530, I noticed lots of men standing around. When I got out of my car (still 0530), @Turf n Turf, was pretending to lead the group in exercise while giggling about YHC being late. The mumblechatter quickly escalated and so YHC decided to quiet it down quickly with 10 burpees OYO. @R2D2 kept talking so that’s five more burpees OYO. After order was restored, we did the following:

Windmills x 10 IC

The pax (sans @R2D2, who after YHC loaded him up with burpees, left early because the kids were being tested today…so I guess school starts earlier on those days) moseyed towards HT.

CP x 10 IC at the corner of David Cox and Davis Lake Prkwy

Mosey to the parking lot to do a suicide square. Each corner is an exercise and has to be performed when heading back to the start.

1st Corner (10 Burpees OYO)
2nd Corner (20 Merkins)
3rd Corner (20 Air Squats)
4th Corner (20 CDDs)

@2 Step took an early lead that many of the pax independently pointed out was due to his poor burpee form. #hurpie #jellylube

Head over to the wall for air chairs and BTTW.

Mosey back to the clubhouse for Mary while playing frogger on Davis Lake Parkway.

Circle Merks (@Turf n Turf…I’m speechless)
LBCs x 10 IC
Reverse Crunch for everyone but @2 Step, who made up his own exercise x 10 IC
Pretzel Crunch x 10 IC
Mason Twist x 10 IC
Low Flutter x 10 IC
Homer to Marge Medley

Moleskin:

Great to be out at Davis Lake again. I have found that being nice will never work for me at Davis Lake. If I’m quiet, I get mumblechatter…and if I’m loud, I get mumblechatter. I can’t win!

Last night, I was scrolling through previous backblasts from years past and ended up laughing a lot reminiscing and staying up way past my bedtime. Those backblasts helped me remember how much fun Q’ing these workouts really is and I look forward to leading many more after spring race season.

@Laser was full of ‘encouraging’ mumblechatter this morning.

@Schoolbus was doing extra credit as usual

@Flyboy looked very festive in his green shots and red shirt. 10 months until Christmas, brother!

Good to see @Liger back out after his injury scare a few weeks ago.

I remember a time when @Bronco told us there is NO WAY we will see him at 0530 on a weekday and that he would post only on weekends. Good to see that change happening.

Where was @Big Country?

See Slack.

As always, thanks for the opportunity to lead!
