Pocahontas Middle School

A trio from the far west end followed the garbage man this morning and according the smell, we did the following: We followed the garbage truck from Pocahontas to Short Pump Park and did some warmups under the Pavilion-SSH, Ukrainian Soldiers, IW, Merkins, LBCs and Flutters. We then went to the Pergola courtyard and did some triple checks. First one: timer does the small loop, others do HRM and Squats. Second: timer runs to pavilion wall and back, others do dips and incline merkins—we shared a bench even though there were many to use—we are the cutest. We finished with…

Four showed up on early morning for some running and a bit of bootcamp. Pinto entertained everyone with stories about his trip to Canada and women crashing into his already hurt shoulder. We ran the culdesacs doing 15 Hand Release Merkins and 30 LBCs on the way down and 15 Carolina Dry Docks and 30 Freddie Murcuries on the way up. Overall, 3.8 miles.

Nobody signed up to Q so I volunteered. My suggestion was to go to the Parking Deck at Dave and Buster’s. I can take a short cut and the rest take the longer route. Which works out good, at least for me. After a few warmups exercises, we ran up one set up stairs, across the top level, down the other set of stairs, ran back up the stairs, across the top level, down the stairs and did 20 merkins. OYO. I completed 5 rounds and Lighthouse did 6 rounds. After that, we ran up the stairs and took the…

We always enjoy a warm dry workout as we are leaving winter. 5 brothers crept out in the gloom this morning to keep working on ourselves. Left home base and headed towards the senior apartments at the end of Three Chopt Rd. stopped at first shopping center and did a little warm up: 10 SSH, 5 Helicopters, 5 Don Qs, 10 merkins, 20 LBCs. Time to keep moving towards our future home. Stopped again did 20 Merkins run touch pole across parking lot and back, 20 two count American hammers, run to pole and back, 20 two count Imperial walkers…

We started with a miscommunication, causing Pigskin to miss COP. After running to W. Broad Village, we did some Arm Circles, DQs, Cherry Pickers, SSHs, Mt Climbers, Flutters, and Merkins. Pinto then led us straight to Pigskin. Now that the crew was together and warmed up, we got to the main event: BLAMPS.  This was called because I enjoyed BLIMPS, but couldn’t think of an exercise beginning with the letter I.  So, we did BLAMPS: 10 Burpees, 10 Lt Dans, 20 American Hammers, 10 Merkins, 20 Plank Jacks and 10 Speed Skaters – running around the perimeter of the parking…

As the sun began to rise, five friends gathered at the trailhead, their breath visible in the crisp morning air. With determination in their eyes, they set off on their 3-mile journey through the winding paths of the short pump park forest. Along the way, they encountered their first challenge: 25 burpees—5 then run a loop (5x). That was Pigskins favorite. Despite the burn in their muscles, they cheered each other on, pushing through together. As they continued their run, they reached a clearing where they decided to incorporate a four corners exercise, twice over, adding a playful twist to…

3 showed this chilly morning to help Whitesnake get ready for his 10 mile Bear creek run coming in a few weeks. The thing: mosey to parking decks at West broad village. First trip up, stop at each level 10 merkins, 10 two count crossover LBCs( elbow to opposite knee). Run back to bottom. 2nd trip up: 10 SSH and 15 WW2s, run back to bottom, mosey to gazebo at lake. 3 sets of 15 dips, 10 durkins. Mosey around lake back to flag. 3.7 miles covered.

5 faithful gathered this cool morning and got our steps in today. Living up to the running boot camp we covered 4 miles today. We ran to our popular neighborhood and hit the Cul-De-Sacs. First few we did 10 Merkins and 10 WW2s, after those we bumped up to 15 or each, on the way back to the flag we took the long way around the lake. 135 merkins, 135 WW2s completed with 4 miles run. Thought we lost Pigskin for a few mins at one point. A good day to workout! Reminders of frozen triangle coming up, closed in…

Just like Magellan, Leif Erikson, & James Cook before us, the WTH group of three went on a dangerous expedition. This one was to find the rumored Wellesley tunnel. After almost a mile and half of running, we discovered an unusual entrance hidden beneath the roots of an ancient oak tree. The entrance, covered by invisible thick vines and moss, seemed to lead to an underground tunnel. Unable to resist the allure of the unknown, the trio decided to explore. Descending into the mysterious tunnel, we found ourselves in a dimly lit passage adorned with symbols and carvings, hinting at…
