4 fools saw the 24 degree forecast and said why not, to post at 5 am. With the all PAX SOP we got moving:
COP: SSH, Don Qs, Merkins, Helicopters, Russian Soldiers, Scorpion Kicks (Kubotas call), and LBCs.
Kubota Q: Run the Grassy triangle with 10 Merkins at each corner. Backwards run the long section. Repeato 3 xs (?). Then 3 rounds of 20 PLTs.
Mosey over to RRCB lot. Wheelbarrow up & down lot.
EF Hutton Q: Dora 123 of HRMs, Mtn Climbers, & LBCs.
Handshake Q: 4 Corners (escalating) of 15 HRMs, 25 WWIIs, 35 Jump squats, & 45 SSHs. Honeydo Q with 87 seconds left – back to flag for 6 inches (Hooooolllllddddd it!) YHC took us out.
NMS – Cold temps but beautiful morning with full moon and dry ground. Only a handful of icy spots in the parking lot. Best sight at 5 am is 8 bare knees in the gloom. 3 of the PAX were sporting winter beards (kubota just barely) so faces were warm.
This new AO is headlamp recommended but not required. Wasn’t needed this morning as we did not tackle south ridge hill. EF Hutton was a gentleman and turned his lamp off before he started knocking out his PLTs. Any view seen during the PLTs need to remember the Seinfeld quote “There was shrinkage”
Day 2 of YHC getting handed the Hot Potato at the last second and getting stuck with the BB.
Handshake hit us up with 60 HRMs not 5 minutes after us doing 100 HRMs during the Dora. Total Merkin count for the morning was about 200. Week 3 of this experiment makes this “Kubota’s Sanity Check” workout a success.

Hey! This is the best beard I have grown since I was 14! Nice morning, Gents! Enjoyed all the HRM’s. Didn’t even notice it was cold out. Have a great day, all!
Honey Do, don’t forget about the Partner Wheelbarrows!
For whatever reason I keep waking up at 4:15/4:30 on Wednesday’s, it’s nice to put that extra time to work. Thanks men!
Turned the headlamp off for my own benefit. Next snow day I say is SOP mandatory. Literally shorts only, no shirts.
Sorry to miss fellas. I am practicing some Kawhi Load Management with my knee. I’ll definitely be back soon for the early bird biscuit show though. Well done.
Wheelbarrow is in there. Glad you couldn’t sleep to get is to 4.
