The beauty of a 4 Pax workout is you can easily have a group conversation. So even though we covered 4 miles with PT, we also had a great discussion which extended 15 min overtime. Here’s what happened…
Velvet arrived by truck at the same time as YHC. Then TARP wandered up the street on foot. With 3 Pax and the time at 5:32, we headed off down Aycock. Just as we reached the end of the street a car coming toward us pulls over and out hops Plebe. 4 Pax deep now, we took the turn and headed over Whitaker Mill and down Reaves. About a mile in, we halted at Fallon Park where the road forks 3 ways: Beechridge left, Kenmore straight, and Hazelwood right. All 3 roads lead uphill at varying degrees to Lockmore. Here’s the Thang: Perform 20x Merkin set at the bottom and 20x ab set at the top. We had time to complete 2 rounds (each round was about a mile). First round exercises were Diamond Merkins, Scorpion Merkins and Standard Merkins, with WWIIs at the top of each run. Second round included Mtn Climber Merkins, Wide Grip Merkins and Standard Merkins, with LBCs at the top. With 3 miles complete, we headed back to the start along the same route. Mostly uphill this time. We arrived back with 3 minutes left. So the Pax was given a choice: Fellowship mosey around the park or Mary. Mary was the call, so we did a modified Jack Webb of Flutter Kicks and Freddy Mercuries on a 4:4 scale. 4, 8, 12. Done.
COT – YHC shared my experience of the hearing the F3 Mission read before workouts down in Carterico. Pretty cool actually. Wonder if I can get it to happen here. We’ll see. Then Tarp and YHC traded stories of GoRucks past, including class 1014’s infamous Evolution of Man. Finally, TARP suggested maybe we should wrap this up. So YHC prayed us out.
Thanks for the invite to Q the Ric, Myrtle. Maybe you’ll actually attend sometime.

PS – If you read this far anticipating the juicy details of The Pitchfork of Doom, well, that was just what I thought the route looked like on Strava. Deliverance probably nailed it better: Detached Snowman Arm.
