One Last Winter Morn

asdfasdfasdf
Date:3/20/2019
QIC:Hawgcycle
PAX:Boo Boo, Darkwing Duck, Jingle Vader, Mahatma, Rev Sox, Triple Shift, War Eagle, Hawgcycle

8 Pax. Upper 40s. Dry. Still winter at the time of the workout.

Mahatma was kind enough to allow YHC to take the Q this morning, since I missed my recent Q at Popeye’s. After a disclaimer warning the pax (especially those from Uptown) about the diverse wildlife roaming the park, we headed toward the jogging track on the north end. We gave hurried instructions to Mahatma as he rolled in hot and eventually circled up in the NE corner

Warm-up
  • SSH x 20 – Rev Sox noticed a tempo change at the end
  • Peter Parker x 33

  • T-claps to Darkwing Duck on his second post.
  • T-claps to JV for finding Lafreniere Park. We were shocked to learn that this was not only his first trip to this AO, but his first trip to the park. #ClassicUptowner
  • T-claps to Triple for completing the Spartan this weekend and continuing to post
  • I didn’t notice nearly as many feral cats this time, but did see a nutria, one roster, and 3 geese. Minimal amount of wildlife today.
  • There seemed to be some mumblechatter concerning the length of the bear crawl, but the pax pushed through and performed admirably.
  • When I visited San Antonio they kept they did not let their feet touch the ground during Mary. I thought implementing this idea was good, but it seemed to meet some resistance, as in most everyone’s feet hit the ground. Maybe I didn’t explain the idea well enough. We were on concrete so maybe concrete was considered ok? Not sure. There were also a few pax complaining about the weight of their shoes. That has a simple solution.
  • Much prayer for those facing cancer.
