Winter showed up briefly in RVA this morning and greeted 23 men with 20-something degree weather. New ideas for this morning, why not get a few miles in along with the boot camp in some rarely tread territory.

Mosey to the east, apologies to any LIFO, we were not going to be in typical locations today. Stop at the split in the road at the lake for a brief warmup of SSH, parting the circle to allow the lone runner through. First run: around the lakes, stop at each intersection for 5 burpees. Mosey to Fountain Lake around the lake with 5 merkins at each light pole, unless you are Pew and you want EC so you do burpees instead. Up to Boulevard, at the bridge across the expressway lunge half, bear crawl the rest. Next run: Around the block to Cary, down to Shepard and back to the baseball fields with 20 squats at each intersection. We threw a few stops in here and there for some mary and other fun along the way. A short run down lightpole alley with 5 Monkey Humpers at each. One last run around the pump house road, alternative around the circles and back to the flag for Mary. You can thank Phonics or Hardywood for the audibile. Seeing the light outside, the pipe loop was a great finisher and why not add 5 pullups to the end since we’re passing the cage.

Thanks to the PAX for letting me lead today and putting up with my tendency for long treks. Great effort by everyone today, we were a little worried about Cooper through the streets but he kept up and enjoyed some new smells along the way. Flipper was lamenting the use of coupons recently and just wanted to run a little. Ask and you shall receive. Olivander was downright giddy about today’s field trip. Note to the PAX, if you see Ollie on the Q sheet, you might get something similar to today. Especially great to see various PAX members picking up the six as we rolled along through the City. Tclaps to Recall who decided that a Rosie Q and normal Breakfast Club run was not enough and pushed a few extra for a total of 10 miles on the morning. He earned his waffles and eggs and bacon.
Enjoyed it this morning men, have a great weekend.

That was really fun Rosie! Well done
Good lord, I’m totally thrashed. Way to lead today Rosie. This was a super hard workout that took a max effort from each of the fellas. Way to push guys.
After the workout Wilson did pull me aside and tell me how much he love it. In fact he said that next years Hair Band Workout will likely be something similar to today.
Wilson’s words capture my thoughts exactly on this one: not the workout I wanted but the workout I needed. Great job leading, Rosie.
