8 Elevens on 8-11

QIC: Van Gogh

Date: 8/11/2021

PAX: @dr. toot (WD), @Lamb Chop (WB), @Drip, @cherrypie, @Cheesesteak, @Subfloor, @Palin, @van.gogh (QIC)

 

YHC had this BB typed up in a Google Doc with most NMM done, but forgot to post it. The main thing YHC remembers is that the EC run with Palin absolutely drained me, and I truly struggled through the morning. I appreciated the encouragement and slight concern from the PAX present.. Some days are better than others, and having the PAX around is what makes those bad days easier.

The planned beatdown was all 11s. It went a little something like this…

NMM

  • Palin dragged YHC along a 5K that run up Reynolda Rd to the Stratford light and back. It’s 2 miles of flat and a half mile of uphill downhill… but that half mile of uphill was no fun!
  • Our Abe Vigoda warmup was met with much confusion by the PAX, until our first set of 11s, which was pure cardio and designed to get us sweating.
  • Subfloor rolled up for his first post to Conspiracy and contributed to much of the MC by answering Palin’s many plywood questions! (Why is plywood 11/16? What are finished sides called? Do you have to put it a certain way up? Which side can you stain? Etc…)
  • CP debated doing burpees and Palin egged him on.
  • Lambchop helped correct YHCs counting problems during our SSH around lap 7.
  • All PAX agreed the 2nd set of 11s would have been better with running in between
  • YHC opted to cut out the hill climb to the pull up bars due to time, and it was a good thing!
  • The PAX knocked out their 55 pull ups like it was nothing.
  • Drip announced “6 up!” only to discover that YHC was the 6.
  • The parking lot work was too much for YHC, as the burpee count was changed to go down after 5.
  • Cheesesteak wisely modified his reps to protect the shoulder. Surgery is coming up in October!
  • Cherry Pie convinced YHC to call for 5 burpee’s at the last line, which the PAX gladly did.
  • Great group this morning, thanks so much for posting!

Until next time,

VG
