Merkins and Miles

All Mint Hill Backblasts

May 10th, 2020 By Head N Shoulders

At last we come to the reopening of the workouts and in normal M.H. fashion 10  PAX showed up for the workout.  The Q had plans for some miles and wanted to throw in a good workout at the same time. The Q had received some good advice from another PAX that it was not shameful to have a workout that did not have you moaning in pain for the next two days. The Q being of sound mind and body (yet to be tested) took that advice and came up with today’s beat down. The normal lousy disclaimer was given and all acknowledged with the usual nod so off we went.

Moleskin:

Great to be official again and to have the opportunity to lead today.  We welcome Delta and Epsilon to M.H. and we look forward to the Q from Delta. We covered over 3 miles and completed 210 dips, 210 squats and 250 merkin’s, not bad for an hours time.

Delta – Epsilon – strong work from both and we welcome you to the group

Chum – strong work today brother and it is always a good time when you post.

Clover – deceptively fast my friend – always a little left in the tank – great work today

Othello – enough said Vortex – never slow even when you are trying to let us all catch up

Tuna – beast to say the least – you always bring it

I.D.K. – your dad said that it would be fun (nice to have you out today buddy)

Booyah – First Saturday kind of maybe – the L.B.C. extended version was good and bad or just bad

Tough Skins – Iron Man strong

thanks to all for the time given to honor our brother Gremlin. He did show up today and Tough Skins received 2 pennies. His memory lives on and we honor that together as a group.
