The Silo BackBlast 7/16/18

C2AE0C0D-28DF-4FED-8298-FDF31483BDA3

If you read my Pre-Blast you would know I had nothing special planned for this morning. My goal for North Posh has & always will be a WO that is hard, that pushes you more than usual. Some times this will be up to the Q to do, but most of the time it’s a decision YOU have to make…to push yourself harder than usual. The more I’ve had the opportunity to Q the more I’ve realized keeping it simple is the easiest way to achieve this.

Weather: 71 degrees, 100% humidity…rain held off.

Gear: Black Nike TT, Grey Nike shorts, Neon Yellow Buff, & Grey Reebok’s.

We then moseyed down Blue Heron Rd to the entry gate to the North Beckley Paddling Access parking lot. The entry down to the parking lot is a nice steep hill, perfect For the Thang.

After the 2nd Round it was 0613 so we went over to the bench wall. Each PAX got in plank postition with their feet right up against the wall & did 1 Merkin. They then lifted their feet up onto the wall & did 1 Decline Merkin. We continued this alternating the two positions doing as many Merkins as possible for the last 2 minutes.
