The Buffalo

Date: 2026-09-11 AO: The Buffalo Q: Hot Route , PAX: Ultratecht, The Bobs, Giving Tree, Waymo (formerly Space Baby), Hot Route, Hipster FNGs: None COUNT: 6 CONDITIONS: no rain
WARMUP: run to get blocks and quick standard warmup
THE THANG: running with our blocks down the greenway stopping for 50 press-ups and then 50 squats
At the pavilion, 50 merkins, 50 plank pulses then mosey with blocks to the bollards doing lunges to them then 50 step-ups w/block then lunge back a bit and mosey back to pavilion. 50 rows followed by 50 Y-raises
Mosey to the Stairway to Heaving and sprint with blocks up to the cave for 25 merkins then continue up to the parking lot for 25 more. One last sprint to return the blocks and back to start
MARY: we did hit 4,400 steps which is a bit over the total of the twin towers. Remembering that the 20ish LBS of blocks we carried is not even close to the amount of weight first responders and firefighters had to haul during rescue going up a furnace of stairs.
MOLESKINE: tried to do rain dances to bring on some precipitation
ANNOUNCEMENTS: struggle, happy hour next Tuesday or Wednesday?? Night Moves at a later date when majority can join. Reflection and remembrance for all involved
COT: sharing of personal accounts from the day. I always reflect on two stories that have made an impact on me. Large from Barstool’s account of it and the Man in the Red Bandana www.barstoolsports.com/blog/3576912/911-larges-reflection
