Ocho is the loneliest number, and other Holiday musings

PAX:Shooter, Turtle, Butt Splice, Ocho

Pax arrived at the predetermined place and time. Ocho must have thought the workout begins at ocho o’clock-o or something. After a couple minutes courtesy wait, the pax, sans Ocho, departed city hall on a new, mysterious and exploratory route into the gloom.

No silly stuff today, just a good ole fashion run. We ran the usual Fancy House Loop (FHL) and added the larger loop just east of FHL consisting of North Street, East Street, South Street, and West Street. After completing both FHL and N-E-S-W Loop, the pax proceed back to Massena Street for the mosey back to the barn when…

…what to our wondering eyes did appear but…

…a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.  Well, it wan’t really a sleigh, and it wasn’t really eight tiny reindeer, but it was Ocho, which is spanish for 8, and, if Ocho had all his sibligs with him, it would have been 8 people who looked tiny, since he was a couple hundred yards away and as a result appeared small in the distance.  Look, it’s not a Christmas carol, but it’s the best I can do in July.

Jog back to city hall, YHC and Shooter picked it up to the finish.  Then to playground for:

  • Pikes with feet in swings x 10 IC
  • Hanging pikes x 10

 

  • Flutter x 10 IC
  • Rosalita x 10 IC
  • Hola Dolly x 10 IC
  • Freddy Merc’s x 10 IC
  • Rinse and repeat above x 5 IC
  • Rinse and repeat above x 3 IC

 

  • Shoulder taps x 31 IC

Countorama, Namorama, Prayerorama.  Peace out.

Kudos for Ocho for running the usual route SOLO all the while likely wondering where the hell the pax was.  Tclaps to Turtle for hanging in there on the run.  It only gets easier brother.
