"NICE!"

After everyone’s first day of school there is nothing like what will probably be the longest practice of the year. Warm-up. Drills. Hills. Cool down. Stretching. Weights. Core. Splendid.

The hill workout went very well. Pretty much everyone was nailing their paces. This meant that the top group didn’t let down any of their eight dedications. Blog Inception Hill (formally Ladue Hill), as it has been renamed by Jacob, provided some nice shade to run in on this hot day. The workout finished with high fives and knuck-bumps for everyone.

The generally dreaded post-hills Falaise cool-down was a lot of fun today because we were join by T-bone who was looking forward to it all day. There were so many good stories, quotes, and jokes during this time. Too many to write down. The sparknotes version would be: Lil OC had a rough time. Sorry bud. We know you can take it. We also got some solid Parkour and a half Super-Wave.

Quote of the Day: “9:55, drop it like it’s hot!”- Coach Traughber during the cool down.

Joke of the Day:
Girl driving by in car- “You’re so HOTT!”
Kabes- “We know all see was talking about Jack.”
Jack gets a big grin.
Kabes- “That’s cause we know she was kidding!”
High Fives all around.

Title: Coach Traughber said that in response to us hitting our paces and Rob explained that it’s a word that T-bone really likes.

  4. Glad to see that "on the longest practice of the year" there is still plenty of time for blogging. Keep it up. And yes Ben, the quote is correct. Sorry to disappoint.
