6 Pax showed up for some old school summer fun. We warmed up! Then we played some hoops!! Numberama, Namerama, YHC took us out! Prayers for Honeymoon’s dad as he completes Chemo today!
YHC was pumped to revisit the test hill near I-95 north of the Wall this morning. Driving to BW3 Solo as my 2.0 was too tired from class yesterday arrived to an empty parking lot. No worries get out the shovel flag and set up folks will come…but no one showed and YHC threw on the headlamp for safety and started the route. This time went on an exploratory route and came up with a great 4 mile option. Easy run of a sub 8:30 pace. Moleskin Great run this morning as I had time to think about the blessings…
2 men started and 2 men joined to make a foursome on this the rainiest Roller Coaster of the season. As the First Four rolled off the 18th green, a solo launched his round to make a Fivesome for the day. Temps were sunny and 70. According to Carl Spackler, this is more or less how the round went: Swirly and YHC completed 3 loops – Small, medium and large Saab-ski did a couple of rounds, briskly passing YHC & Co. on the last one. TYA literally rode circles around the group. Bone Thugs ran off on his own. Looked…

With Swirly emasculated by a small dog who demands his attention and Shiplap nowhere to be seen, only 4 of us gathered in the humid gloom of WDog. No Q was on the sheet, so Bodos grabbed the potato and off we went. COP in the Amphitheater: various stretches! Dora: 100 Box Jumps, 200 Incline Merkins, 300 2x Flutterkicks. Partner runs the rim of the amphitheater. Hot potato passed to Faceplant, who ran us down to the bottom of Love Hill. Burpback Mtn: A terrible routine in which one partner performs burpees while the other partner runs halfway up the…
An elite 8 clocked for a beatdown idea that looked much better on paper. Light mumble chatter as the clock neared 0500 with a pair rolling in right at the top of the hour. Quick circle up to grab a coupon and mosey half way down Ridge for COP. Exercise I: Coupon Dora quick COP to get a taste of the humidity; partner up for Dora runners to and from the triangle parklet on ridge and back to down to Country Squire. exercises were 100 alternating merkins on the coupon, 200 coupon presses (bench or push) and 300 200 coupon…
The thing: This 3.0 mile beatdown at WTH started with a fast jog around to short pump elementary school Warmarama: In cadence: Side straddle hops Dead man hang Merkins LBCs YHC learned from the past to explain his cadence and all had a few laughs We then mosied onto the ball field! COP 1: 7 of diamonds on the ball field. Home plate to right corner 7 merkins, center field 7 more and home plate 7 more to hit the Diamond pattern. Round two: 14 mountain climbers Round three: 21 flutter kicks Round four: 28 LBCs 10 count and we’re…
A PAX of two met on Zoom for 3rd F. To account for over preparing last time, YHC underprepared. YHC had prepared a bit of trivia about some of the “bizarre” stories of the Bible. Florence’s knowledge of the scriptures is stunning. It was great to get to know him a bit better. Where two or more are gathered… Put the next 3rd F on your calendar: June 22nd at 8pm on Zoom. Any ideas for multi-access/HyFlex gatherings? Send them my way. Perhaps we could take this 3rd F on the road and have a blend of in-person and virtual…
The traffic on the trails is picking up. Gomer and Saab hit the roads at blazing speeds. Helix and YHC went Buttermilk to TPot to Northbank, picking up Sippy and K9 Penny there. The PAX reconvened at the parking lot. YHC bets Penny will fit right in with Peeta, Sally, Parker, and the other F3 K9s. The mayor is still missing – the PAX hopes TYA’s heals quickly.
A solid 18-PAX posted to NoToll in breezy fair weather to play some Ultimate Frisbee. Here’s how 9v9 played out: The THANG: The light colors were down a man briefly until Fresh Prince showed up, and then Light and Dark teams exchanged touchdown for touchdown until they were about 3-3… that’s when the Light team pulled away and despite a couple more worthy touchdowns by the Dark team, the Light jersey’d gents won the day. CONGRATS!!! There were a LOT of highlights for the morning, but the one that stands out was Beaker (Respect) running across the end zone to…
