DownPainment/Flaming Youth

For reasons outside of his control, The Cylon has been doing a bunch of solo workouts lately, which usually translates into a lot of running. Better than nothing, and TC has come back from an undisclosed DownRange mission having violated the Pinch Principles way too much, but keeping the weight right smack in the middle of the fluctuation zone. OK, not too bad. But TC needed a good old-fashioned snot-woggler, and he got it today at the little known and kinda shadowy F3/Junction. Here's the Thang: 4.9 miles - Marinate staggered start - Prowler from starting position to 2nd cone & rotate 180 degrees for next man Run to Pull Up Bars – 10x Run up Lurker – 10 burpees @ the top Run down Megatool to Princeton entrance Bear crawl from 1st cone to 2nd cone Run to Hamburger Hill – 10 burpees @ the top Run to Little Mike’s dip bars walk the plank (up hill) Run to park exit @ Princeton – head toward Hillside to pick up greenway Lunge walk from 1st cone to 2nd cone Run down greenway and cross bridge to backside of Park Road Montessori From baseball backstop – 3 Q Dogs (ie. 1 lap in q formation with 10 burpees @ the backstop upon return x 3) Run back to greenway – lunge walk from 1st cone to 2nd cone Run back to Princeton & up Megatool – 10 burpees @ the top Run down lurker to Pull-Up Bars – 10x Run to launch site staggered finish - Prowler from starting position to 2nd cone & rotate 180 degrees for next man Yeah, it was a bear and it brought a full dose of the #DownPainment. But the best part was the other PAX. Given that The Cylon's identity is undisclosed, it's a given that his age is unknow. But, here's a clue: he ain't young. So, having to chase all these young studs around the Gloom is like an extra #WeightVest for TC and cranks up the pain to a point he could never reach solo. The flame of youth may not be burning so bright for TC anymore, but he can borrow a little from the young guys to whom the torch is ever being passed. Anon.
