Your Humble Correspondent (YHC) pulled up in the gloom and saw only one other car in the parking lot of Twin Team. Being the first time back to Twin Team after a COVID hiatus year (almost on the 2 year anniversary of my first post Apr 12, 2019), YHC was hoping for larger numbers, but it was a great opportunity to get to know a newer PAX (Crash Test Dummy). At 5:30, 2 PAX emerged from their vehicles and a hot potato was called, meaning CTD would get his first chance at leading (part of) a workout. Apparently other PAX…

Bullseye and Doozy joined YHC at Twin Team this morning for a chilly, windy, Good Friday hot potato. It’s always 70 and sunny somewhere…it was not at BWES. Here’s what went down.

Suboptimal weather conditions could not prevent the Doozy/Chaplain combo from dominating at Twin Team, and at life in general. The teenagers streaming in for early morning practice, and the random dude walking his dog can testify to my account. Mosey to the high school in search of shelter. Warm ups: Russian Soldiers, Imperial Walkers, Helicopters, Don Quixote’s, LBC’s. Exercise 1: 7 rounds up and down the covered sidewalk area. -Bear Crawl, 25 Hello Dollies-Plank Walk, 25 Rosalita’s-Crawl Bear, 25 Freddie Mercury’s -Flying Nun, 25 WWII’s-Broad Jumps, 25 Heals to Heaven -Fiddler Crabs, 25 LBC’s -Bearpies, 25 Alabama Prom Dates.*Might have…
7 HIMs sought out ideal conditions at Twin Team only to discover we were a few degrees south of 70. As the mumble chatter discussed Coach K COVID Protocols and UVA and Carolina’s continued dancing in Greensboro, YHC shared the numbing realization of leaving the YHC’s Garmin on the charger while cruising down the James River Bridge. With iPhone in hand, it was go time as the clock struck 5:29. Mosey up towards Twin Team hill only to yell “Psyche” and then mosey back to the bus loop. No Twin Team hill this week. COP Circle up for dead man…
4 fearless stallions awaited the strike of 5:30am. Time hit and we were off. One came in just at time, as such, one PAX went back for the six. Leave no man behind, and leave no man where you found him. According to the flag team at Bettie Weaver, this is how it went down.

Mosey to the track Modified Catch…
The answer is “yes,” and it sounds something like a groan mixed with a strangled fart. Because that’s what it was. YHC posted to a Bettie Weaver ES parking lot populated only by icicles and slushy rain puddles, notwithstanding the forecast of 70ish and sunny-ish. At the appointed time, YHC shed the comfy confines of his car-sack to get going, having learned from previous experience that lingering around an elementary school parking lot dressed in head-to-toe black can sometimes be … misconstrued. According to the Riverton Neighborhood Watch report, here’s how it went: Warmarama: Mosey to the BWES covered entrance…
Four foolhardy fellows braved the snow and ice at Twin Team. 2 were there at the start while the other 2 found us in the COP: COP: Don Qs, SSH, Imperial Walkers, Flutterkicks, Merkins, Heels2Heaven.
