Run, Arms & Abs, Repeato…

Three eager beavers crashed the BWES parking lot – 1 stir-crazy gentlemen in recovery mode out for a dark stroll, and 1 down for whatever concoction Gumbo had in store. Today, it was an off campus excursion that went a little something like this:

Grab a headlamp…you know what that means.

0530 bell rings and off we go toward the namesake hill. Stop in the cul de sac from a brief COT of DQs, Helicopters, Jazzercisers and Imperial Walkers to loosen up the back and legs. Round 1 of exercises – 21 merkins and 21 LBCs OYO, then, up the hill we go. I’ll call it a run, but YHC ended up more like a mosey. Stop at the top for round 2 – 21 merkins, 21 LBCs, 21 Alternating Shoulder Taps, 21 Flutter Kicks – OYO. Run on Twin Team out to Robious Road and across into Tarrington. Stop at the Gates of Tarrington for round 3 – 21 merkins, 21 LBCs, 21 ASTs, 21 FKs, 21 Carolina Dry Docks, 21 Freddie Mercuries. Run down Ashwell hill to the Tarrington Clubhouse for round 4 – 21 merkins, 21 LBCs, 21 ASTs, 21 FKs, 21 Carolina Dry Docks, 21 Freddie Mercuries, 21 Dips and 21 box cutters. Run around the block heading back toward JRHS – stop at both traffic circles for bonus rounds of 21 Merkins and 21 Mountain Climbers on the curb of the circles. Run to front office door of JRHS for round 5 – 21 merkins, 21 LBCs, 21 ASTs, 21 FKs, 21 Carolina Dry Docks, 21 Freddie Mercuries, 21 Dips and 21 box cutters, 21-count plan hold and 21 American Hammers. Run BTTF, right on time.

COT, Numbers, Names, Prayer.

YHC forgot just how bad TT hill is. It sucks. YHC has been wanting to do this off-campus run/workout for a while and with just two of us I thought it was a good way to test out the timing. It was perfect. This will come back again, I promise.

The “21” count was in honor of YHC’s 21st wedding anniversary with my M yesterday. Can’t believe it. I have been married to this wonderful woman for half of my life. The big man upstairs was smiling on me when he convinced her to say yes!

Go forth and take your F3 energy and spirit into the day and spread it widely men. SYITG.

No More Gumbo For You!
