QIC: Corned Beef
The PAX: Bulkhead, Opus, Clint (Sergio Sergi - FNG), Corned Beef

YHC pulled up to see a parked car that seemed like an FNG coming to a run workout. We had an easy 4 mile route, with Opus pulling in to park and Bulkhead running from home we gathered up made some introductions, fired up the headlamps and ran the following 4.25 mile route…typically called the Taylor farm loop. see route below: This was nice so we could show the FNG some other AO venues such as DaVille and where we typically form up to start. Mumblechatter was great, LabRat would have been proud as YHC filled the void of quiet…

Tabatha

QIC: Lab Rat
The PAX: Hitchhiker, Shakedown, Faceplant, Ripcord, Corned Beef, Lab Rat

A good showing for WDog this morning got rewarded with a tabata workout. Pullups/bar work, boat/canoe, planks, and jump ups were the exercises. Many comments about the naming of Tabata…and of course, Tabatha was a popular subject. The pax seems to be digging these, so expect more to come out of Lab Rat Q’s in the near future….especially with a smallish pax. Sorry to keep it short, but my laptop is on the fritz and had to use a loaner computer to get this out in the world, but like Flatline likes to say….”those that post know”. Lab Rat apologizes…

A cool six-pack showed up in a strange place for a strange brew of options. Temperatures were 70 and sunny outside, and between 38-55 degrees in the froth. According to the brewmaster, the following likely happened: Circle up. Mosey inside for a double-check. The PAX discussed 17 year cicadas and whether they were the name of the beer or present in the beer or both. YHC did 2-3 SSHs (for real) to both begin the COP and conclude the workout. Don’t say YHC didn’t exercise. Lockjaw, Dial-up, and YHC proceeded outside to initiate the longest COT of the year. Soon,…
