13 men met this morning at Grid Iron, pre summer heat. Some may have wished they stayed home? After a brief warm up we headed to the fields for some cardio with “Thunder-Burpee”…burpees for every time ACDC’s Thunderstruck said “Thunder”. Unfortunately after one burpee we lost Polly. Then it was time for core. After sets of 20 of Freddy Mercury’s, Mercury Freddy’s, Crunchy Frog we Bear Crawled our way for another set of 20 of Reverse Crunches, Heals to Heaven, and WWII’s with a twist…and then Bear Crawled for another set of 20 V-Up Roll Ups…followed by Bear Crawl and…

Dos amigos corrieron por el sendero circular pavimentado en Rockwood Park. Mumble chatter ranged from family to faith to fitness to morality. YHC ran a slower pace after being hung over from the Bert workout yesterday. As always, we recruited the men walking the park as we ran.

The conversation was good, we talked about classic movies from the 80s and 90s, and college roommates turned runners. There was a Saab sighting as well in the wee hours of the morning running shirtless up and down Grove. Rumor has it that he was running since mid-night. Good luck to all the racers this…
