Bells n Whistles got hungry

In lieu of being able to figure out how to add the correct “block” to post a backblast, thought this quote might bring a smile to your face.

Since I have no idea what will be visible, here we go:

12/12/18

Q: BAM

Pax: Cobra, THE Singing Cowboy (WD), Bluto (WB), BAM

Once again, it’s not about me.  Struggling with all kinds of “I don’t wanna” leading up to this morning, as YHC was getting back in the car when we were done, and reminded (again) not only is this beatdown with brothers EXACTLY what YHC needed, but got the sense we were a help to each other as well.

Having scouted out the road and AO yesterday, the Q felt confident going to the higher ground of Pfafftown would be much safer than descending to HP or Meadowlark.  Cobra and TSC were already surveying the lot, having gotten in their usual 17.5 mile warm up run in.  We secured a proper and safe location and waited on the arrival of our fearless Nantan.  He came rolling in like the boss he is and announced his presence with his all too extraordinary authority.

Seeing no other pax, other than a potential Food Lion employee hanging out in his truck, we jumped right in!

Warmorama

The usual excitement, concluding with a “you don’t know a peter parker from a mountain climber” new exercise the Q broke out just special for this morning!

The Thang

Greta 1-2-3 (Dora’s Icelandic cousin – also includes running with your kettlebell)

  • 100 curls
  • 200 squat to overhead press
  • 300 pullovers

As you can imagine, that took a minute, so the Q brought out a “classic” to help take us home:

  • 50 kb swings
  • 50 WWII
  • run to end of building and back
  • 40 kb swings & WWII
  • run
  • 30 swings & WWII
  • run
  • 20… TIME!

NMM

  • Always fun to roll up on 2 sketchy dudes walking in a grocery store parking lot at 0520 and not be nervous
  • The good side of exercising in a covered area by the door to the Food Lion, maybe it’s warmer?  The down side, there’s no place for Cobra’s paint-peeling gas to escape.  #lingers
  • At one point during Greta, the Q had to try and whistle while running so an older gentleman didn’t run over our kettlebell, crisis averted
  • Tunes seemed sufficient
  • Cobra was able to offer assistance to an employee who was having difficulty opening the protective case for the “buy 1, get 12 free pig livers” sale sign. (evidently pig livers are popular in Pfafftown)

Announcements

  • the party this weekend

Pax shared prayer requests and prayed for one another (cause that’s what you do when you share a prayer request, what’d you think, we’d just say, “Well, thanks for sharing!” and head home?  What kind of warped mind do you have?  And some how I get labeled as the mean guy.  Dang, y’all really need to take a long look in the mirror and question why in the hell you’re still reading this!  Don’t have you somewhere, anywhere that’s more productive than reading this nonsense?)
