Blackjack

The BackBlast:

16 arrived at 7:00 am. 1 departed at 7:01, but the remaining 15 made it through another Kardashian themed workout.
What We Did –
– The theme today was playing blackjack as we went down memory lane with Kardashian by visiting all of his previous and current residences.
– A quick start with the pax heading down Park to 1st stop sign for some SSHs, merkins, squats and Imperial walkers (in honor of L10’s presence).
– continued down Park and turned right on DW Rd West and stopped at corner of Ileworth Ave. House stop #1 (and probably the house where Khloe lost his virginity). everyone got a card and did some merkins and squats.
– we stayed on Dilworth Rd West for a while. Stopping multiple time for different motions (LBCs, merkins and squats). Then turned left on Charlotte Drive and stopped at Kardashian residence #2.
– We received another card, got some history and continued on.
– We made a right and took some side streets and ended up at corner of Lynway and Cumberland. Waited for the six and then Indian run up to Showmars at East Blvd.
– Everyone got a chance to pick an exercise and then headed down East to Freedom park to the recently opened greenway entrance.
– From there, headed back towards city and stopped at the back of the current Kardashian residence where we got another card.
– All you got to bridge.
– Exited greenway at Morehead and headed west up the hill and past Levine CC.
– We stopped at the 4th and final Kardashian residence at corner of Arosa and Morehead. This was a condo and his first residence in Charlotte. Another card.
– The pax then worked its way through Dilworth and made it back to Latta and closed with some Jack Webbs.
Moleskin –
– We covered about 4 miles. Kardashian led Rube, Oswald, MLF, Cream Cheese, Runaround, Tassels, Jack Nasty, Leg Day, Khloe, Brooks, Boat Misser, 40 Thieves, Wilson and L10 (Kotter)
– Ernie made the quickest exit ever at Latta. I think he made it about 200’ before pulling up lame and heading home. Hope injury was not too bad and hope to see you soon.
– We had 3 winners who all had 21, but Kardashian had no prizes. He quoted a book and told us we were all winners and got to still play the game. So we have that going for us…..which is nice.
– Although Wilson was present, there was no XX today. The duo is Latta’s new Snooki and Cuba Libre. For the younger group – they were a pair that always attended Latta together. Until they didn’t.
– L10 was added to the group chat today. He showed up because he always loves the Kardashian leads. I think the real reason was that he knew Skyline was not there.
– Speaking of group chats – I was disappointed to see that MMOB was not part of the signal chat. I figured he would have fit right into that group of Mensa members.
– No sheep or Pate today. They are getting ready for the F3 Olympics. Not sure how you train to lead coffeeteria, but Pate will find a way.
– Hope everyone survived sausage fest. Scrooge would like these backblasts to be posted on the metro F3 site. He said it’s easy to do. We shall see. Mixed emotions about that – Latta thrives on being under the radar.
– Rube has the lead next week. Get ready for some distance. Skyline hopefully will be back.
