QIC arrived to 5 at the Marsh this morning, still in recovery from the St. Vincent 500. Made worse by the air going out last night and camping on the floor with Wicket and Grover. Realizing there was no plan late Sunday evening, Even though the soreness was still harsh, there’s that inward force that says go get it today. And we did.
YHC pulled the old Redeaux from a Gipper workout a few months back. The difference was no bricks. A late Sunday trip to Ace Hardware came up empty handed – so it was modified to blocks. After some chatter Jose ran up and Fletch arrived later to make 7.
Mumblechatter was high as usual: ISI, St. Vincent 500, JV’s double Q, somehow Bushwhacker always comes up regardless of where we are. Since Hammer and Jose were there – lots of movie quotes today: Over the Top was a main focus. There may be a remake of Roadhouse – which will likely fail without Patrick and Sam.
Jose had the tunes, and Cry Little Sister came on. This brings flashbacks for YHC in high school from Jamie Gertz’s cave scene – which made the rest of the workout that much better. We didn’t even get to Less Than Zero – maybe another day.
