Hogs breathe, bbq, and yhc showed up this dreary morning, ready for the crazy Ivan. A simple poll was taken, and we just felt like running. Through the wet streets of Covington, the 3 of us jog at a slow pace. Discussions of family, work, the crazy Ivan, runcajunrun, and of course COVID. I realized that I am truly blessed to call these men my brothers, my family. We still have never had a solo A1C, and every workout has been great. Thank gentlemen for coming out, and I hope we see everyone out tonight for the crazy Ivan. Jose10k out….

Disco Rumble – from Hogs Breath
We began with a quick discussion between hogs breath and Jose 10k about who would Q this am. Hogs Breath assured the pax he would lead. About this time BBQ pulled in blasting his high school disco alma mater. Jose 10k decided to take this as a challenge and began a musical chorus to Berger’s, Abba and other disco greats!
The warm up:
15 mountain man poopers
20 imperial walkers
10 toe touchesJose then lead the pax to mosey and collect some coupons. After we returned to the height of A1C we began our “royal rumble!!!”
Hogs breath put 80 seconds on the stopwatch and pulled out the “deck o’death”! The rumble began as a card was over turned, while the pax were completing the listed exercises, a single pax would take his coupon and run the perimeter of the A1C rooftop. If the pax completed the course prior to the stopwatch expiring the pax would take the remaining time to rest. Then the next pax would pick his coupon, a card overturned and the pain would commence again. Miraculously not a single Club card (these are core exercises) was overturned. The majority was hearts (cardio) and Spades (legs) with a few diamonds (arm) thrown in for good measure.
At 0546 Jose 10k had to depart. Recognizing that the rest times were getting shorter and shorter…. we played a round of”F3 poker” were all pax drew 5 cards and the “winning” poker hand was the next round of exercises. BBQ turned over a pair of 6 so we completed 2 rounds of:
Backward run
Lunge walk
Flutter kicks
Jump lunges
karaokeEnded with a count-o-Rama, circle of trust and announcements.

Jose’s Pride and Joy
Yep, you guessed it! It’s his sweat jug! (Zoo is starting to get nervous, folks). It’s not that he has his very own AO, the prized, smartly named, A1C (reminds me of Vanilla Ice). Nor is it his nickname, which he re-branded himself from Jose Mourinho to Jose 10k, more recently to Grumble Grumble (and who knows what else).
We came here to exercise didnt we, Pik? Oh, yeah, here we go…
YHC broke out and old standby today at the A1C, the Tabata workout. Every 30 seconds, the PAX did an AMRAP exercise with 30 seconds of rest in between. The exercises were: big boy sit-ups, merkins, derkins, flutter kicks, Hello dollies, more merkins, jump squats, bobby hurleys, apollo ohnos, leg raises, stone mountains.
Thanks for hard work this gloom my brothers! Until next time, SYITG
