Luck of the Irish… a day early

4

8 fartsack escapees arrived at TwinTeam ready to kick off their Friday the right way, and none were disappointed. The Shovel Flag was planted, gloves discarded, and the Pax set to it quickly this morning to make sure everything could fit in the allotted time.

  • Back by popular demand (you can thank Rosie), the Lucky Horseshoe continues to be a crowd pleaser. Glad to be able to bring it on the road to the south side of the river, it will be back at Heartbreak next month. Perfect timing to have it a day before St. Patty’s Day, but due to the gloom I have no idea if anyone was wearing kelly green or not.
  • Good work this morning, everyone. This is a tough one and it was clear everyone did a great job of pushing themselves. Congrats to Rosie and Tobit on your completion of the victory lap, that is no small accomplishment! I’m grateful for the opportunity to lead today, it felt good to get back in the Q saddle after some winter germ-induced months of being unable to regularly put in a ton of posts.
  • Hopefully nobody lost any shoes on our shortcut to the track, the Q almost did…
  • Results (last lap completed) for those who wanted to keep them for future reference:
    Orange Crush – 8
    Don Draper – almost 9
    Mr. Holland – 8
    Tobit – VICTORY LAP
    Rosie – VICTORY LAP
    Loose Goose – 8

See you again in the gloom very soon, and enjoy your green beer this weekend!

  1. Follow up note… Heartbreak Ridge on Tuesday next week will NOT be another Lucky Horseshoe. That’s too much even for me.

  2. Thanks for bringing that back Goose. Twin Team already has a monthly staple with the Murph but I am sure the Lucky Horseshoe will show up again before the end of the summer. I agree that you should start the Horsehoe Tour this year, take it to all AOs, at least those with a track.

  3. Orange Crush on

    Nice workout today LG. Rosey and Tobit are incredible. I’m in awe but think we should consider drug testing.

    Also first time in my life I’ve been called a fartsack. I feel honored. See you next time when I’m going for nine.
