YHC took us out by reading from Psalm 103.
NMM:
60 Minutes and YHC enjoyed a 2.4 EC run ahead of time. YHC enjoyed getting to know the area better in preparation for future BBBC route planning. 60 also helped YHC prepare for the workout by providing an orientation on the AO.
The MC was as reliable as the rain from the quartet of Sgt. Schultz, Boomerang, Schneider, and Sour Mash, each making some variation of a comment on the bricks, logs, and other accoutrements in the tailgate of YHC’s vehicle being indicative of criminal activity. We only used the bricks and weights today. The logs will have to wait until…another day.
Having heard of the shenanigans this crew normally get up to on Mondays, YHC was on the lookout for any threatening looking janitors who might intend to run us out of the shelter and into the storm. No aggressors appeared this morning.
Ten minutes in, Boomerang asked: “Is there a side two to that note card?” No.
Lightning lit up the sky a couple of times, and the rain came in spits and spurts.
Fender expressed appreciation for YHC’s contributing to his daily burpee quota. Running with bricks was not enough for the man; he decided he should be doing curls mid-stride as well.
Sgt. Schultz made sure to turn off the lights of the shelter, suggesting that his Y membership might be revoked otherwise.
Sassy, thanks for the keys. It was a pleasure Qing in the village, and YHC looks forward to the next go around. Keys were left at the Y desk. That’s where 60 Minutes told me to leave them.
