I know this is overdue but writing a backblast is better late than never. I took my first turn at the Muscleship with the stiff competition of the Mothership Endymion run. It’s 6:30 am and no one joins me. Now its 6:31, 6:32,…6:35 and I think to myself, do I try to find the PAX on Orleans Ave or lead myself. Well, I didn’t run to Orleans so I headed to the coupons by the baby foundry and proceeded to get to work.
I grab a cinder block and do a route 66 on Roosevelt Mall (out and back). At each bench I proceed to do 5 Man makers as I head towards Marconi ave. As I finish a few benches on my way to Marconi, the thoughts of quitting start creeping in because its lonely working out by yourself. Nearing the end of the benches, I see the friendly face of Green Screen!
My energy, demeanor, and spirits pick up and Green Screen and I are having a great conversation while doing the prescribed routine. As we finish Route 66, I proceed to something very ambitious. We both grab 2 coupons from the pile and head over to the baby foundry for some Flora 1-2-3. This is the first time I completed this exercise without having to modify for time. Whew! That was extremely difficult! To top it off, we had to farmers carry the coupons back to the pile. My hands and forearms were burning!
Mosey back to flag for the countoff, namerama, and COT! Thanks, Green Screen for holding me accountable and allowing me to lead!
