Concerned about getting lost, the PAX kept it pretty tight, Bro Code style. Here’s where we went: R on Pump L on Burnside R on Bridgehaven R on Glen Eagles L on John Rolfe L on Rolfe Way – Colonist – Rolfield R on Ridgefield R on Pump Back to VSF MOLESKIN Pretty quiet morning, just some ferocious canines and talk of AI sex dolls. Whitesnake was so appreciative of the pre-nounced directions that he decided to run it virtually. ANNOUNCEMENTS Prayers for those affected by the hurricanes Prayers for Fudd’s sister

The bell rang and five pax … no, actually six pax, because here comes Hitch right on Hitch Time, which is about 90 seconds behind the rest of us … no, actually seven pax, because we picked the Mayor up on Turn 3 of our first lap around the track … posted for the inaugural Tabata & Track workout at St. Christopher’s. It was Launch Day and yes, there was a Hitch. The track is kind of cushy compared to the middle school track where I ran the Charlotte version of this workout, and it definitely doesn’t overlook a garbage…

Where: St. Christopher’s track, Maple Ave. & Christopher Lane When: 0530, starting 10/7/24 Workout Name: TBD I successfully ran a workout on this format for the last several years in Charlotte and it attracted a small, loyal core of followers, so I’m going to transplant the concept to RVA. The structure is as follows: One, 4-minute Tabata / HIIT block with 8 cycles of 20 seconds of work, 10 seconds of rest. One “hot lap” around the track. Repeat 6 times. COT Within that format, there’s room for endless variation in terms of exercises. The first Tabata set is usually…

Thirteen guys basically knew where they were supposed to go. Here’s where: R on UR Drive R on Westhampton Way R on Keller, cross College to Glen Parkway R on Westham L on Baldwin R on Patterson R on Hollins and immediately L on Woodbury R on Horsepen (6s add a trip up Horsepen to Patterson and back down) 4s through Fraternity Row and back to SF 5s/6s left on Hampshire to Wheeler and through the path to Campus 5s/6s take Campus Drive toward Towanna 6s add Bostwick 5s/6s R on Towanna into Roselawn then the path back onto UR…

It’s funny how YHC hates getting wet except when Qing. Then the PAX’s anguish sustains me.

Even Bro Code needs a leader. Someone has to present the brilliant idea of running it in reverse, or original style depending how long you’ve been around. Here’s where we went: R on Pump L on Ridgefield R on Copperas R on Church R on Pump Back to VSF MOLESKIN Pigskin nearly took on a car, Pigskin would’ve won. Unless of course Chuck Norris was behind the wheel, then it would’ve been a tie. The lead pack talked about a Flesh Anchor among other things. If you know, you know. If you don’t know, ask your mom. ANNOUNCEMENTS Prayers for…

With emotional support Handshake along side, YHC went Deeper than ever before. Here’s what transpired: Mosey out and over to the bus loop and behind the school, careful not to disturb the Tomatoes.

YHC gave State Farm the option, fun and games or see who pukes first. Wiser heads prevailed, but hooping one on one for an hour nearly brought the puke anyway. Toss in a few poorly thrown routes on the Gridiron and the day was complete. Series was tied 1-1, to be decided another day. The seldomly heard of Perpetual Q rule was invoked at R&R, nearly the same at Iron Bridge, but State Farm was not convinced to abandon ship. Thanks for coming out and making it a fun morning. Hydrate if you must.
