Stonewall – 10.9.21 – “Imprompt-Q”

3 HIM (+ 4 runners) got after it on a Saturday morning and posted for a mildly creative beatdown that was (prior to 0600 hours) completely unplanned.

PAX: Breadsticks, Zalinsky (WL from The Rock aka Rock Hill AO)

Runners: Black Lung, Cowboy, Deep Dish, Michelin Man

QIC: Cunning Linguist

Gloom Factor: Mild. Low dew point and a temp of 65 degrees made for rather exquisite weather conditions.

INTRO:
YHC arrived about 10 minutes early and found traveling salesman Zalinsky from Rock Hill in town for a wedding. Breadsticks and others appeared in time for the 0600 kickoff.

At 0600, YHC gave a condensed version of the Disclaimer and then set off on a Mosey to the Gale Lane Community Park for our Warm-O-Rama.

WOR:
15 x SSH
10 x LBAC
10 x rLBAC
10 x Imperial Walkers
10 x Hillbillies
10 x Good Mornings OYO
12 x SnL Squats

Given that there was exactly 3 of us, we performed a modified DORA for THANG 1 (and thanks to Zelinksy for the creative input on this one)

THANG 1:
DORA 1-2-3
Partnered up as a trio
150 x Merkins
300 x LBCs
450 x Squats
Between each movement, mosey to halfway point around the loop where one person did LBCs (uncounted) and the previous LBC person would then run the reminder of the loop.

Upon completion, countdown from 30-1 was called out, then we moseyed back to STARTEX for THANG 2.

THANG 2:
Real American/Merkin Routine
YHC grabbed his phone from his ride and played Rick Derringer’s classic “Real American”
During Verse 1, Overhead Press AMRAP
During Chorus 1, Real Merkins AMRAP
During Verse 2, Windmills AMRAP
During Chorus 2, Real Merkins AMRAP

Another 30 second countdown, then mosey to the corner of the park nearest the intersection of 12th Ave S and Kirkwood for THANG 3.

THANG 3:
Simple Sprints
One PAX run from the bridge to end of the path where the walkway does a zig-zag/switchback.
The other 2 perform Lt. Dans while waiting their turn.
End when all 3 have their turn to sprint.

At long last, a sprint to STARTEX where we had approximately 5 minutes to spare and witnessed the runners returning just in time to join us for MARY.

MARY:
All IC
10 x LBCs
10 x Happy Crunchy Frogs
10 x American Hammers
10 x Freddie Mercury
10 x Alternating Heel Taps
10 x Alabama Prom Dates
10 x Flutter Kicks

COT/BOM

MOLESKINE:
Always an honor to lead, and as usual, the Men of Stonewall put in a fantastic effort this AM. Thank you for letting me take point for an hour!

Welcome to F3 Nashville, brother Zalinsky from THE ROCK aka Rock Hill. It was a pleasure meeting you and having you in attendance today!

BULLHORN:
TAPs for all families (including the Michelin Man family) that are experiencing various health challenges right now.

YHC encouraged everyone to make outreach to those who have gone “radio silent” lately. 



See you all on the flip side.
