  • Charmin and the Runners – from Charmin

    As per usual, the Runners came and killed their workout from Coach Gregg.

    YHC did a nieghborhood lap that felt faster than normal. It may have been the cooler air. Here’s to hoping that the weather get’s even cooler!

  • Stretch, Run, and Whatever KB was Gettin’ Done – from Bolt

    YHC got a HC from Pillsbury the night before, making him a Kotter and thus, there was no backing out of the gloom this rainy morning. The S&M crew found the marathon preppers fast at work well before the disclaimer as we made our way to the pavilion with a guest appearance by KnOTS’ own Scantron. KB brought toys and flailed about as the S&M crew did their thing.
    We reassembled in the rain for COT; honored as always.

  • All Hallow’s Eve – from Charmin

    KB and YHC pulled up at a little before 5:20 to see a herd of runners running away from the proverbial flag and all of their cars taking up valuable parking space. The days of a Lakeview Clown Car were apparently over.

    With just KB, Vagabond, and YHC at the flag at the start time we felt a rumbling, before we knew it, the herd had surrounded us. It felt like a reenactment of the Mufasa Death scene in the 1994 classic, The Lion King. Before we realized what had happened Vagabond was taken away and the herd had left.

    KB was nursing a sore ankle and not to leave a fellow pax behind, we went to his car to lift some heavy things. Turns out, the heavy things included, but is not limited to:

    a bike
    a 80 lb sandbag
    20 lbs of laundry (unsure if clean or not)
    a 65 lb kettlebell
    a 15 lb ruck weight (this was found in the pocket of said laundry)
    and some manner of creature that I dare not describe.

    After lifting some of the weights around, Triple showed up; apparently he sensed the dirty laundry.

    Nearing the end of our weight lifting session, we could hear the lackadaisical languishing of the runner herd; apparently they could start 10-15 minutes before hand, but could run all the way to 6:15.

    We ended up with 16 Pax including Vagabond who reappeared unharmed (or rather no worse off than before)

    COT involved some education on today’s festivities originally being called All Hallow’s Eve referencing All Saint Day tomorrow and continuing on to All Soul’s Day the day after.

  • Multiplication of the Runners – from Charmin

    The Mustard packet and YHC started off at 5:30 with just the two of us.

    By the end, we had picked up a group of three, Pai Gow and Two Yutes.

    Overall a great morning for a workout around Pontiff.

  • Babysteps for Big Runners – from Charmin

    They Runners said that they were taking a book from Scantron’s Knotting experience; they figured if he could walk backwards and have it count for the beatdown, that surely they could take babysteps around Pontiff for 40 minutes and have it count as well.

    Meanwhile YHC rucked the normal route and lead the COT back at the proverbial shovel flag. Beautiful morning to get out!

  • Charmin and the Runners – from Charmin

    In an effort to once again lead the Pontiff Pax in number of written BackBlasts, YHC posted in the gloom this morning. Thankfully, 9 other runners decided to do the same and hence Charmin and the Runners was formed. YHC Rucked and the Runners ran.

    Rudy needed a personal invitation to the Name-o-rama ball, but other than that, it was a cool morning.

  • The Wally-maufry – from Hawgcycle

    The Wally Sprint has (d)evolved into a gallimaufry of workout types. Today was no exception – 7 men, 4 workouts

    YHC and Thumb War did the advanced Garmin Coach workout from Coach Greg. 15 minute warm-up / six 1:00 sprints at a 6:45 pace with 1:00 recovery / six 0:30 sprints at 6:05 pace with a 1:00 recovery / Cool Down

    Two Yutes and Pai Gow did the remedial Garmin Coach workout from Coach Kuch. 40 minutes of easy running

    Scantron and Rougarou walked backwards into the distance.

    Triple bein’ Triple.

    Looking forward to the Convergence re-enactment at City Park on 10/19 and the actual Convergence on 10/26 at the St. Charles entrance to Audubon.

    Prayers for those affected by Helene and safe travels for the Grand Canyon Krewe

  • LVCCC – from Charmin

    A couple of us regulars arrived at the proverbial flag and before we knew what was upon us, Pax from a distant shore began to spill out and overflow from a single car. Before we knew what was upon us, there was a total of 18 pax, most of whomst were taking part in the inaugural Lake View Clown Car Coup as a way to prepare for their attendance at the Convergence in a month.

    While their number was many, their ability to start on time seemed to be lacking as “Well, it’s 5:30!” rang out in the gloom to no movement except from the regulars. This continued to present itself when the ruckers were the first to reach Falcon Road, leaving the park.

    45 minutes later (only 40 for the runners, who apparently needed the 5 minutes to cool down), we all returned for a total of 18 pax.

    COT – Prayers of Gratitude, protection for those in the path of the hurricane, and mostly prayers kept in the silence of the heart.
