Warm Feelings at The Skunk

ab fun including, leg raises, v ups, pull overs, oblique crunches and weighted WWI’s

NMM:  YHC was truly a bit concerned when there were no other participants at 0526.  Thankfully En Fuego rolled in with Venus and Kathy rolling up and hanging in their sled while YHC and En Fuego started the warm-up promptly at 0530.  Big Stick rolled in somewhere around 0540 after claiming a failed Foxtrot pickup.

Hilarity ensued as everyone went through the sets, and we learned that Kathy’s special purpose is the dive-bomber merkin.  Who knew!?  It’s also interesting to see how people gear up when the temperature drops.  We had everything from tights, Venus/Razor’s ode to Mike Tyson and Kathy’s fourteen layers.  It could be that Kathy was still cold from the ruck.  He said it went well and was not overly taxing.

Special thanks to Bagger for letting me take the Q so I could make sure of no running on the bum knee.

Stay Classy,

Toga
