  • Afternoon Delight – from Strings

    Usual calesthenics, 4 Rites, PSBs(painfully slow burpees), wind sprints, Qi gong moves, abs callanetics

  • Some Ran, some rucked, some did knees over toes – from Hokie

    Yep… runners ran

    Ruckers rucked … starting late and then finishing late

    Others explored Knees over toes training

  • Charmin’s Foot Doesn’t Do That – from Bolt

    YHC gave the usual Wally Sprint disclaimer, “Runners run and stretchers stretch; push yourself stretch yourself, don’t hurt yourself. I’m not a trained professional.” Chain Link and Amazon DR from ATL joined the runners and Scantron kicked off the stretchers with knees over toes followed by stretches from yours truly. We discovered Charmin’s foot does not go vertical while in the runners stretch and we allow him to keep coming back anyway. We won’t leave you behind and we won’t leave you where we found you. We will, however, tease you relentlessly; where is Rudy when you need him!?
