Omaha to the Original Plan, or French Conspiracy

Omaha to the Original Plan, or French Conspiracy

Date: 10.22.25

PAX: Schlitz, Zesty, Greenspan

Ol’ SchlitzyPoo and YHC got in a 3 mile EC run and, being the only pax present, were about to Omaha and go for a backwards ruck up the hills around Hanes Park when Poppa Spice rolled into the lot at 0532, “saving” the day.

Warmarama (just to spite Zima):

• Mosey to the track for a lap of calisthenics.

The Thang:

One pax moseys backwards around track; two pax perform exercises and sprint to catch backwards moseying pax.  Flipflop & repeato for a full lap.

Lap 1:  Bonnie Blairs x 3

Lap 2:  Mike Tysons x 3

Three full laps in the books, we moseyed through the rugged grounds alongside Peters Creek until we found the “other” bridge.  Crossing that, we found ourselves at the bottom of Pilot View.  Oh well.

One pax moseys backwards up Pilot View; the other two perform exercise and sprint to catch up.  Flipflop & repeato until reaching the top.

• Burpees x 3

At the top, we entered the parking lot beside St. Paul’s.

• Run forward 1 parking space, perform 1 squat, mosey backwards to start. Mosey forward 2 parking spaces, perform 2 squats, mosey backwards to start.  Continue until reaching the other end of the parking lot, 16 spaces later.

Having reached the bottom of the planned weinke, we utilized the wall of the post office for some kankans and derkins.  With time running short, we moseyed home for 4 minutes of Mary.

• Heels to Heaven
• Flight Attendants
• Cobra Crunches
• One other that has slipped the mind

Time.

Announcements:

• WIB tomorrow will be at Food Lion on Hawthorne.

Prayer Requests:

• Praise for a great day at the Ardmore RAH on Saturday.
• Schlitz and M as she is in the 2^nd
• Lamb Chop and M as they adjust to two kids.

NMM:

• As Schlitz and YHC were heading to our vehicle to retrieve weight vests for a ruck, Schlitz says, “So what were we going to do?” After describing what had been planned, Schlitz got a sick look on his face.  “That’s stupid.”  Good thing Zesty pulled in so that we had a reason to stick with the original plan.
• On the Mike Tyson lap on the track, Zesty asked, “Is this all we’re going to do?”  Nope.  At the bottom of Pilot View, Zesty said, “That’s a lot steeper than the track.”  Yep.
• The conversation included kids learning the proper names for genitalia.
• In the parking lot beside St. Paul’s, Zesty uttered a Thistle: “I stopped keeping count several parking spaces ago.”
• The workout was loosely inspired by the heist at the Louvre.  Can’t wait for the movie.
• Backwards running on Pilot View hasn’t gotten any easier as we’ve gotten older.

YHC took us out praying for Schlitz and M, Lamb Chop & M, and giving thanks for bodies that are able to do stupid crazy things.
