QIC: Sour Mash & VanGogh

Date: 12/7/2017

PAX: Drano, Road Apple & VanGogh for an EC 10K

Drano, Fingers, Harden, Joker, Shake n Bake, Sour Mash & VanGogh for the beatdown

Reaching out to #Geppetto to confirm his Q for this morning, he informed YHC he might be headed out of town for work.  It wasn’t officially official so YHC awaited confirmation.  Confirmation was received after YHC posted the pre-blast on the Tweeter.  It was predetermined that YHC would be the substi-Q with a the need for an assist at 0600.

As a “seasoned” Q, YHC decided to shoot from the hip this morning and hoped my portion of the beatdown would be sufficient, especially since I am still hobbling from taking a spill down the hill at #Purgatory a couple weeks ago (Thanks #Schneider for EHing me to post that day).

At 0530, YHC made the usual introduction, very poorly, I might add (not a public speaker) and we began with…

Warm-o-rama:

  • SSH x 15 IC
  • Abe Vigoda’s x 10 IC
  • Arm Swirly Things FWD x 10 IC – hold it
  • Arm Swirly Things BKWD x 10 IC – hold it
  • Seal Claps x 10 IC

We did a short mosey to the benches by the sidewalk for…

  • Erkins x 10 OYO
  • Dips x 10 OYO
  • Repeat-O

We then moseyed to the corner of the track near the road for…

Squat lap:

  • 20 squats then mosey to corner of the track by the field house/concession stand
  • 20 sumo squats then mosey to the far corner of the track past the water tower
  • 20 copperhead squats then mosey to the corner of the track near the basketball goals
  • 20 narrow leg squats, with knees together (called by #VanGogh) then moseyed back to start

Next we moseyed to the far side of the field house/concession stand to grab some bricks for…

  • Colt 36’s (dubbed by #Fingers) x 12 each OYO of lower half curls, upper half curls and full motion curls
  • Overhead presses x 15 IC
  • Squats with your bricks x 10 IC
  • Repeat-O

For YHC’s finale, we moseyed to the field for…

  • Bear crawl approximately 10/15 yards, perform 10 squats OYO and 10 merkins OYO
  • Repeat-O the full length of the field

Time was up for YHC and to much dismay of the PAX (especially #Fingers and #Harden), the keys (and Q gift) were given to #VanGogh for…

  • Rounds of 11’s on the basketball courts – PAX ran the full length of 2 courts with jump squats and Carolina dry docks
  • PAX completed an extra round with the 6 and moseyed back to the parking lot right at 6:15, so not time for MARY

CoT:

  • Prayer request for peace during the holidays and the California wild fires
  • Reminder about the F3WS holiday party next Saturday

NMM:

  • Beatdown ended with 1.6 miles traveled, according to #VanGogh
  • Great to see #Road Apple briefly as he rolled in from EC!
  • Welcome again #Joker, a former FNG on Tuesday, posting for his 2nd time and has HC’d for #BBBC tomorrow!
  • Feels like YHC hasn’t seen #Harden or #Shake n Bake in a while, enjoyed suffering with you gentlemen this AM, as usual!  Tclaps to #Harden and his M for EHing #Joker.  #Shake n Bake has to be one of the quietest PAX in all of F3WS, definitely the strong silent type, always seems to give 100%!
  • Tclaps to #VanGogh for the assist this AM.  YHC wants to be like you when he grows up (and slims down, hopefully)!
  • YHC hasn’t had the pleasure to workout with #Drano often, and I think this was his first time posting at #TheDistillery.  Hope to see you again soon!  #Drano has the fastest bear crawl I’ve ever seen.
  • #Fingers, as usual, always makes workouts more enjoyable with his MC.  YHC always looks forward to hearing him callback the exercises in an “accent” and his faux (mostly) complaining!

YHC will thank himself for the keys tonight with nice pour of bourbon!

    “Hated” to miss all that bear crawling.

    Strong push this AM from Drano & VanGogh on the early run, always appreciate the PAX that come run with YHC before the workouts!

    VanGogh, did your watch ever find a satellite?
