Dreary, Soggy and Rainy am. YHC was silently hopeful that no one would show as he sat in his car in the rain watching the time tick by. 5:21. 5:22. 5:23. Maybe I’ll be able to head home. 5:24. Up in the mist, YHC sees one runner go by and thinks “What a fool”. 5:25. YHC realizes that runner is Hawgcycle. Sigh. So YHC gets out of the car, steps into the rain in order to fulfill his obligation. And at 5:29 Mahatma rolls in hot, seeming to savor the chance to workout in the rain. YHC is not sure the last time he saw such a big smile on Mahatma’s face (it could be, however, that he’s awaiting the call to announce his new grandbaby. you be the judge).
Since YHC is still generally afraid of the rain – lets just grab a rock and head to the gazebo.
Tabata workout, using the playlist YHC and kids put together over the quarantine. Interesting mix of classic rock (YHC), Taylor Swift-ish pop (daughter) and eclectic whatevers (son).
10 exercises. 45 seconds on, 15 rest. Repeat x3. Curls, Sit Ups, Squats, Mountain Climbers, Shoulder Pres, V Ups, Step Ups, 8 Count BBs, Rows, Twists.
One highlight – Hawg also recalling the Epic SNL performance of Faith No More. That was a seminal moment in YHC’s early musical journey…
Had a few extra minutes, so a few wall sits with curls to pass the remaining time.
Return the rocks (tossing them into the puddle to see how big a splash could be made), then return to the (virtual) flag for Count Off, Names, and close with a prayer. Blessings especially on Disclaimer as they prepare to welcome a new baby to the world!
