Creativity Abound at Redline

QIC: Valdez

Date: 8/4/2020

PAX: Double wide, Manscape, Chomper, Plunger, Winklevoss, Greenspan, Suede, Kashmir, Resistor

YHC, not exactly known for creativity and ingenuity where Redline workouts are concerned, led the PAX through a familiar workout this AM. The workout consisted of half hills & half track work to prevent full on misery from being stuck in the same locale for too long. Some creativity was found this morning, but not much, not much at all. After all, there is something special about knowing the specifics of a beatdown that is headed your way.

Warm-o-rama:

        • Standard issue lap around Hanes Park, mosey for the 6, head to the track

 Main event:

        • 1×400 sprint – walk/recover to the bottom of The Intimidator
        • Run up The Intimidator, recover down, head to the track
        • 1×300 sprint – walk/recover to the bottom of The Intimidator
        • Run up The Intimidator, recover down, head to the track
        • 1×200 sprint, 1×100 recover, 1×100 sprint – walk/recover to the bottom of The Intimidator
        • The beating continues as time allows.

YHC Observations:

        • Greenspan astutely pointed out The Intimidator, from Carolina to Jersey, had been declared a disaster zone. Confirmed this was pure speculation (and hope). Luckily for us, the area was in tip top shape by the time we got there, allowing Greenspan to smoke everyone up the hill, over and over and over.
        • If you were worried Resistor would get lazy on vacation, worry no more. He was moving fast this AM.
        • While Plunger told the PAX it was his first workout in a while, it sure didn’t seem like it.

Announcements:

        • The Shmed – August 28 & 29. A 24 hour beatdown, but it’s for a good cause.

Prayer Requests:

        • Plunger has a few family members struggling with Coronavirus.
        • Chomper’s mother-in-law is recovering from Coronavirus.
        • Suede took the group out for the day.
