The Dreadnought – Soaking but not raining.

Considering the conditions facing the PAX for the past two weeks we have been fortunate to find the windows necessary to get most of our workouts in within the interruption of considerable rain, thunder, and lightning…in most cases.  Today was an improvement as the stars were actually shining, yet the moisture in the air was as thick as if it was falling from the sky.  The standard rolled out as usual, 0505, with a solo participant…Deuce begged out the day before apparently dry needling is his secret to his strength, yet it requires a 24 hour hiatus to gain full strength?  I’ll have to ask Flip about that one!  Rolling back to the West Carteret Parking lot the crew was slowly assembling, stretching, and grumbling…our stragglers came rolling in as usual, Deebo and Pasqually cutting it beyond tight!

Away we go with a team of grisly veterans on another Dreadnought.

Mosey around the Football Field to a spongy stop at the Band Field.

Feet wet and sweat pumping we moved onward to the parking lot at Glad Tidings…lining up on the perpendicular lines within the parking spaces.

(6) Plank Jacks

Working to 6 Spider Merkins and 1 Plank Jack

Onward we go, mostly to appease our long lost brother Belly Flop who felt our current level of perspiration was not sufficient to match the Sports Center.

Moving quickly now we made our way to the first bridge just beyond the hill on the Bike Path.

Another Round of 7’s followed as below:

(1) Groiner

(6) SSH

You get the point by now.

Keeping moving down to the left turn into Swinson Park it was time for a little Jack Webb break:

Again on the move and mindful of the time we proceeded to the Primary School for a quick break with a round of Dips…25 in total.

Back on our mosey and back to the Track at the High School to round out the morning.
