#ChickenFoot
All All MECA BackblastsMay 16th, 2016
Clown cars came rolling in from every direction representing multiple AOs and regions. By the time the starting gun went off, 26 men had assembled on a chilly Monday morning to throat punch the Chicken Foot.
The Thang
Start at grand central station
- Run 1/2 down and take a left onto #18 hole cart path
- Turn around when you reach the glow stick and head back to the start
- Run straight on the street to the next intersection
- Head back to the start
- Run 1/2 down and take a right onto #10 cart path
- Run the valley and turn around at the glow stick then head back
AMRAP until 6:10
The Hilly Moleskin
- The word of the day was relentless. Chicken Foot gives no room for recovery. You’re either going up or down. It’s a humbling run for most.
- The VT goes to @FoulBall. YHC hung with him until the first glow stick was planted and then started getting lapped in no time. Impressive showing brother!
- The river running through toe #3 was unexpected. We all got some mud run training today too! #Bonus
- Great effort put forth by the entire PAX today. Way to man up and start your week off with a bang.
- The next #ChickenFoot is set for 6/13. Be there.

Aren’t you glad that’s behind you now?
Good workout! I am hoping I can increase by a toe every 3 of these (if you are keeping it a tradition).
Nice goal to set for yourself. Your next chance will be 6/13 with @Dingo calling the shots.
Definitely relentless. Great start to the week.
@foul_ball – Way to crush it. I think you can make 5 next time.
@tradition_pax – No matter how many times you yelled at me there was no way I was catching Foul Ball this morning. But thanks for trying to motivate me.
We believe in you Jumanji!! Or…..maybe you should bring Katie next time……
We do believe in you Jumanji, but bringing the M next time may help.
Tell Dredd to sign a waiver on his no girls allowed rule, and I will send Katie in my place next time #f3_run_of_shame.
I will enjoy fartsacking and laughing at your pain and embarrassment.
Can’t believe I did worse the second time!
Foul Ball owned the Chicken today!
Impressive showings by Jumanji, Winnebago and co.
Actually impressive showings by every man that posted to this monster!!
This sucked! But that’s what makes is good. Nice push by Winnebago, Grinder, Skipper, ManDown and TrailMix. Way to finish out front for the normal guys. Foul Ball and Jumanji are just way out there on their own.
That SUCKED! I’m glad I did it. Looking forward to the next one. I tried to take you on the last hill @grinder, but I knew if you came with me, I wouldn’t be able to hold it. Sure enough. Next time.
I noticed you started to get a bit frisky… it surprised me when you dropped off. Either way, it was good running the last lap with you.
Aye!
I just added a tag for chickenfoot.
Sounds easy.
I guess you won’t know until you show up for one.
I know you are stirring the pot FW, done MM, El D and Bonesaw. This thang will deliver the pain cave you seek and it is only 45 minutes. Stretch it to an hour, throw in some PT and it can rival MM.
Sounds like you’ve already got the July edition planned out. Only thing left to do is sign up and Q it.
@Grinder, and whomever created this killer course, tremendous job. It took me a bit to come to terms with the severity of the climbs, I thought for sure 4 completed laps was the floor. I was wrong in a major way.
If you aren’t mentally assaulted on that course then you aren’t trying. Great job everyone.
Best BRR training I’ve had yet! Just brutal!
Wow! That was a tough one! For some reason though, I can’t wait until the next one!! Really this is a perfect course! A$$ kicking for all levels yet keeps us all together, very unique. As Iron Maiden implies, running is a very lonely sport so it’s kinda nice to see other guys around you as you gasp for breath!!
Jumanji gets my vote for best tuck-and-roll. Chicken Foot tried to take him down but he’d have none of that!!
ManDown is right! Great BRR training. You’d be hard pressed to find BRR grades around here to practice on. Now if only they were 1.5 miles!
Ahoy! Excellent start to the week and perfect weather for it. T-Claps to all men who posted and pushed it today. Obviously @FoulBall, @Jumanji, and @Winnebago killed it, but I was quite impressed with @ManDown who never faded today and wouldn’t let me catch him. #Chickenfoot is legit and I especially like the 2nd F motivation you get from seeing your brothers passing in all directions.
Well, I faded when Grinder said we had 3 minutes left. I was finishing up lap 3 with you hot on my trail and my hopes of catching Winnebago fading into oblivion. The mental game got to me and I stopped. Told myself that it was to “stretch” (which I did), but I should’ve pushed myself to take one more trip down the 18th hole path. Next time! #Chickenfoot is definitely a keeper!
