Running & Gunning with the Respects

QIC: Van Pelt

Date: 04/15/2019

PAX: Mutton, Burlap, Juice Box, Resistor, Lawn Boy, Van Pelt

Tax day, start of Holy Week, start of Spring Break, chilly and breezy.  Lots of reasons to mail it in this morning.  But, alas, the Respects were up anyway due to bathroom breaks, sore back, crampy legs…whatever ails you.  So, you might as well Run & Gun.

Route: A simple route that even Resistor can follow.  Wiley Bus lot to Runnymeade/Warwick.  Right on Westview, Right on Forest, Right on Arbor, Left on Warwick and back home.

Gunning included:  Copperhead Squats + Merkins….Elbow Plank Leg Lifts + Low Dolly.  Finished with 50 LBCs.

Moleskine:

At 48, Lawn Boy rung the War Baby bell.  A couple more years to claim the “Respect Title.”  Burlap (I believe) was War Daddy, as he has YHC and Resistor by a couple of months.

Per usual, Mutton took off early and actually ran the course in the right direction.  He could have likely hung back with the other PAX as the pace was not blistering.  Good fellowship along the way as we dodged sticks and puddles.

Tabata started fairly innocently.  But, the elbow plank leg lifts combined with low dolly was not very nice.  Sorry…who knew?  Looked good on paper.

The music was outstanding, as we crossed genres with Kasey Chambers to Neon Trees to Nelly.  EWF (that’s Earth, Wind, and Fire for the young’uns out there) took us out with LBC’s.

Announcements:  Carter High Color Run, perhaps the most fun race in the history of running, is April 27.  See Juice Box for details.

YHC took us out.

    Mutton definitely could have hung with and beaten me. Thx to JB and Resistor for talking and enjoying a relaxing run while I pushed myself and barely kept up. Negative splits were due to the gradual up hill for 1.7 miles followed by the gradual downhill for 1.5 miles. Good morning with some great guys.
