QIC: Icebox

AO: Katy Trail
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER:

WARM-O-RAMA:
Side Straddle Hops x20 IC
Imperial Storm Troopers x20 IC

THA THANG:
Before we began everyone grabbed two 2.5 lb weights from my ruck vest, these acted as our baby coupons and batons for the AM

Moseyed over to the track
400M warmup jog

Partnered up, since we had 9 we had 4 teams of 2 and I jumped on the AlrightAlright and jon team as a 3rd wheel which meant I just had to run around and wasn’t really racing because I’m too slow for it to matter.

Race 1: P1 runs 400M, P2 small pulses up with the baby coupons, switch
Race 2: P1 runs 400M, P2 shoulder presses up with the baby coupons, switch
Race 3: P1 runs 200M, P2 did triceps with the baby coupons, switch, and then do it again with another 200M sprint

Intermission: 800M fun run, jog the corners and spring the straight always (Aaarrrggghhh killed us in the jogs, he’s been holding back on his moseying skills)

Race 4: P1 runs 400M, P2 did something that I can’t remember with baby coupons, switch
Race 5: attempted to do a continuous 4X100 relay until all 4 teammates ran 400M…this race failed miserably, some of us ran 400M, some 600, and some 300M…I’ll go back to the drawing board for next time

Mosey back to La Madeline for 20 rugby sit-ups and prayed it out

MARY:

Thanks to all who came out, it was as fun as running can be. Will keep thinking about ways we can do relay races when we don’t know how many people are going to be at the workout. I now keep baby coupons in the car so if any other Q wants to use them just let me know and I’ll do my best to show up!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC prayed us out

MOLESKIN:
6 PAX gathered for #katytrailthursday while F-150 went off on the solo ruck. Alright Alright was quick to point out the contradictory clothing for YHC as YHC was wearing gloves and his Santa hat but short sleeves and shorts (this was due to the sensitive extremities YHC has. AA and Ina had the standard too cold vs not too cold debate and it seemed like most agreed it wasn’t too cold. At one of the quarter breaks, AA said he should’ve brought a cowbell to bother YHC about the Ags laying an egg this weekend, which YHC was very thankful he didn’t. On the way back, the PAX decided to hold off on the Sky Pickles until a group of female joggers went by (which was probably smart). This led to a discussion of how you can do anything when no one is watching which Special Sauce said is the definition of character. Most agreed doing Sky Pickles when no one is watching is probably not the definition of character. Overall a good workout/run on a crisp Thursday morning.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Potential 2nd F Happy Hour and other event next Friday/Saturday
2. 2nd F movie night with Alright Alright Director’s Commentary for Bohemian Rhapsody
