The Not So SMURPH: Back Blast 2.16.19

This Saturday started off a little earlier than normal. With the Star Course closing in, several of us wanted to get some miles in prior to starting the day.

At 0400, I met up with Alexa at the O Posh, and we planned to meet up with others who were starting at North Posh. We started towards North and after about 3/4 of a mile, we met up with OJ, Chestnut, Kilo, Worm, Hot Wheels, Tony Malito, and possibly one other that I may be missing.

We headed up to Pope Lick Park to the Gas Station and returned back to Posh. Along the way we picked up Wham! and Vacuum to join in on the fun!

After a quick stop at the Gas Station I quickly realized that I left my phone behind, and had to sprint back about 1.5 miles to get it and return to the group.

After a quick stroll around the Egg Lawn, Alexa and I called it so we could get ready for the WO. We ended up with just under 10 miles.

At 0700, we had three other join us for the WO. Ladybird, Bob Ross, and Mr. Kotter were ready to go at the start of the day.

PAX: Alexa, LadyBird (R), Bob Ross, Mr. Kotter, and McAfee (QIC)

Since the Holidays I have had a weighted vest that I have been using, but I have yet to try it out with one of my favorite workouts. So I decided to get a few others to join me in the fun.
