6 HIM arrived at the Milestone Marsh with a late 0700 start for a Labor Day Murph.
Conditions: Blistering hot and no wind
WU – SSH, Self-Love, High Knees, IW x10
The first run was great, possible YHC’s fastest ever – maybe even a PR. We finished up and headed to the playground to start in reps of 5,10,15 x 20 rounds. Music kept us going with hard rock classics.
With about 5 rounds left, our jam session was interrupted by “How Great Thou Art” (the piano version). Was this divine intervention? We were all doing great. Or did my wife just bogart Spotify for her morning coffee accompanied by hymns? It was the latter, of course. After scrambling to switch it over, we then returned to Quiet Riot’s Bang Your Head and finished up.
Heading out to the last mile, the PAX requested we take the route to the Lakefront, since it was a mile. YHC’s math skills failed again by trying to convert feet to miles on the first run. It was .5 miles, so we came up just short of the traditional Murph.
COT – Hammer prayed us out with prayers of safety and recovery for Louisiana, and those still struggling with COVID.
Bird had some trash bags and we picked up the Marsh as is our custom every Monday. We found a $1 bill on the ground, which we decided to add to our Waffle House tip. Looking forward to some good grub and air conditioning, we headed out only to find that WH had limited food and we couldn’t eat inside. So, we ordered some hot food and sat in the hot parking lot using Jose’s car as a table.
Gret work men, thanks for letting me lead – Akbar
