Well, not completely in the rain as we had an overhang to keep us somewhat dry.  However, the park guy didn’t show up until after 0530 to open the gate so we did have to walk in the rain to get to the AO.  But we did have 5 PAX needing a recovery from the workouts of the week in preparation for the back to back beat downs of Friday Metal and Saturday Vet.

The warm up was the walk to the overhang.  Then I went into full blown yoga instructor mode as we moved from one position to the next stretching all that ails us. We had a bunch of up dogs, down dogs, planks with modifications. We did some low lung stretches, then high lung stretches, add some twists and triangles just for fun. We also did some bow stretching all while putting some merkins in on transitions.  We finished off with a runners stretch to do one last pass at loosening up those old hips and then finished with an old military PT test of touching your toes.  We should all be able to touch our toes; if you can’t then you need to come on out and see me on Thursday mornings at the Veterans Memorial Park.
