Eleven studs waltzed out and announced their presence with authority for a 5:00 run, err, Beat, down. Temperatures were sunny and 70. According to the groundskeeping crew at U of R, the following quite possibly happened:
Mosey to the Sprinkler-fed lawn in front of River Road Baptist. Groans. “It’s gonna be too wet.” Yep. Cold, wet, and sandy. Fun fact: it rained last night. Second fun fact: the sprinklers were on when Broga started. Third fun fact: the sprinklers turned off at 4:50.
Circle up.

WWIIs (wet)

Something else
Let’s mosey. Q runs to the other side of intersection of River and Ridge. Headlamp goes out. Rookie move.
Mosey along River to Saab’s house. The man lives on River. What can we say? We know people with prestigious addresses. Do some exercises in his driveway to celebrate.
Mosey down River to U of R fields for the Main Event. The Michigan. In the dark. (See dead battery, headlamp).
100 yard sprint x 10 times
80 yard spring x 8 times

20 yard sprint x2 times
10 yard sprint x 1 time
Breaks sprinkled to allow for recovery of breadth, stretching, and griping.
50 burpees called at the end. 11 groans heard…attendance taken and everyone is alive and able to breathe. Boom. Let’s mosey back to the VSF, Indian-run style, Kubota fast walk pace, stopping this time at Saab’s new neighbor’s house. Exercises.
Reform the line in the same order. Or, 5 burpees. PAX did the burpees.
BTTVSF.
5 MOM, with reverse crunches, flutters, Alabama Prom Dates, and more reverse crunches.
Numbers, names, and YHC took us out.
Announcements:
Great to hear Lab Rat is doing better. Can’t wait to see you back out there.
Let’s hope Tryhard’s sister continues to have good numbers.
Since YHC is slow to post this, sorry if you missed Roller Coaster this evening at 5/5:30 at Hillcrest. (Note: Copyright alert. Not sure what type of law school graduates are running hills in SOJ land now that Hunton’s finest have moved to the Promised Land, but those calling other AOs Roller Coaster best beware…this AO has been Roller Coaster for about 6 years. Time to checkity-check before you wreckity-wreck).
BRR…sign up. Good numbers. Fellas are getting in shape.
NMS:
Daniel joined us today. He’s 29, he’s a Scorpio (actually, we have No Idea what his Zodiac sign is and, in any case, No Idea is a different guy entirely), his wife is close personal friends with Marv’s wife, they go to church with Marv, and he runs a dental practice in Hopewell where he apparently treats jaundice in a lot of Union Army soldiers. Seems like an overall solid dude. Hope he comes back. Oh, and his F3 name is Abscess. Strong work today.
Corey Widmer “Suck It” Awards of the Day:
Hutton’s for his views on YHC’s physique. YHC suggests getting some Structure in your life.
Bodo’s for being Bodo’s. #coffee
Everyone who griped about getting wet at 5:02 a.m. only to find they were soaking wet (and stinky) at 5:35 a.m.
BTW, for anyone who has not been to Broga, it’s early, and it’s worth it. Thanks, Last Call. #solidstretching #sprinklers #marble
UpChuck spits the bit.
