Carolina Hustle Rap

Santa visited on Friday this year
Lots going on for Team Rabbit, never fear
PBun was up to take part in STUR's KFC WOD
That was 12 Days of Fitmas in case you forgot
Two days later she was still feeling abdominal DOMS
But she'd be the first to say that that isn't wrong!
On Saturday morning PBun and PGoodz ran a virtual 5k
It was the Santa Hustle, complete with Santa beard gaiters for the face

The price of admission included post-race candy and cookies
And of course finisher medals and fun zip up hoodies
Then she was ready on Trixie at 11AM sharp,
For a special Christmas themed virtual group ride to start
The rubber band broke, and one group ended up as three
But you know that she got her workout in anyway
Sunday morning was just a chilly walk with her pup
Avoided the ice patches because she did not want to slip and fall on her butt
For STUR Christmas was a little bit out of the norm...
A family camping trip in North Carolina looking for weather that was warm!

First day WAS warm and that called for a walk on the beach -
Roaring fires at night - freezing temps were in reach!

 

Christmas Day they decorated the nearest tree around...
Even decorations on the dog could be found!

Fried turkey, white elephant gift exchange , and karaoke singing -
And a zoom call for the family who was missing!

Virtual Shine Rap

STUR started off her Saturday with an annual tradition:
Getting through the 12 days of “Fitmas” was her mission!
From “clusters” at day 12 to a pull-up at day one…
And lots of other stuff for 40 minutes of fun!

PBun again attempted a virtual group ride
And this time she did it all correctly and got her workout loaded right
It was neat to be part of a group of over 30
From all over the US and even other countries!

Just like in real life she was at the back of the pack
But the virtual rubber band kept most of the group intact!

There were festival lights in the virtual trees
After she changed in to the ugly Christmas sweater jersey

Later on STUR went into DC to experience ARTECHOUSE
The light installations and motion sensors were super cool without a doubt.

 

For a drink and a meal they headed over to Hops 'n Shine -
Outdoor seating would be just fine!

With the help of a tent and a heater gun...
Even Jell-O shots snuck in from PBun!
Later on they enjoyed one of the gas fire pits
It was nice to be able to warm up a little bit!
PBun enjoyed a cup of festive hot cocoa
It was definitely the way to go! 

Sunday morning PBun had a 5k run time trial on tap
Would she improve over her last one? Oh snap!
After a short warm up she got the TT underway
Tried to hold steady for her usual course for a home 5k
In the end she did it and almost had a negative split
But this means her paces will adjust next week she must admit

She 'bumped the dot' on both run and bike
So both will get more 'fun', if you like!
That morning long course swimming was STUR’s best option -
For 3000 meters of fun she hopped right in!
Off now she went to spin her legs out-
A relay style partner thing is what it’s all about!
That afternoon PBun assembled a gas fire pit of her own
It’ll be fun to hang out back with Riley and stay warm!

Sunday night, KBun got back in the pool
Swimming long course at TSJ is of course pretty cool!

Team Rabbit has a theme song!

Here's a throwback to December 1, 2018 when Team Rabbit hit the road to Ohio for the Regal Beagle Ultra! CBun caught STUR and PBun jamming to the Team Rabbit theme song. (Rewrite lyrics courtesy of STUR!)

Why not give it a listen? Go Team Rabbit, Go!

Man Maker Rap 54 Edition

On Thursday STUR and PBun started their day the best way they know how-
At the pool with some sets of 400s - wow!
They moved onto the box for some WOD time -
Two (maybe 3?!) workouts in one day is not a crime!
It’s STUR’s annual birthday tradition -
This one will be the 54 Man Maker edition.

PBun was very happy to partake
She was unable to do so for the 53rd for goodness sake
She felt the onset of DOMS even before the day was done
Always good to know she did something and it was fun

Celebrated after with a fun little snack
Donuts even without deadlifts, natch!
Swim practice Friday PBun had a stranger in her lane
Thankfully the swimmer was not insane
They both got into a good swimming groove
It was fast Friday y'all,  they sure did move
Saturday was a looooong partner WOD for STUR back at the box-
Just 80 reps of pull-ups, thrusters, snatches, squats, and box jumps until you FLOP
Meanwhile,  PBun tried a new thing
Virtual group ride with TriDot peeps is what that brings
It didn't start until 11am
A little late but what the heck
She had a little trouble figuring things out
In the end she didn't get to load her workout!
She hung in there anyway since she'd gotten in the group
Thankful for the virtual rubber band keeping her with them if you want the scoop
Most of the riders wore the same kit
Black and red for TriDot, what a trip!

On her birthday STUR may have drawn the short stick...
As at spin-fit she had to ride the echo bike - SICK!
But she persevered and also made it to the pool-
Swam for 90 minutes - so very cool!
PBun had a run on tap that included three by 4 minutes intervals set
What a lovely day out there even a little warm you can bet!
The weekend before PBun had a little socially distant event
Painting ornaments with old friends was heaven sent!

There might have been a throwback to the old cul de sac
Lime Jello-O shooters on tap, perhaps?
She later got up on her roof...
Santa and lights - here's the proof!

Giving Thanks Rap

This rap will cover about two weekends
There was a lot going on for these rabbit friends!
KBun was off to Mexico you see
She was going to do Ironman Cozumel – woowee!

She had a great swim in the water that was amazingly clear
Saw a dolphin in the days before the race – it was so near!

She might have a technical issue on the bike
But got it done in the end if you like!

The run was her jam and she finished with time to spare
Thankful to get to race during this crazy COVID year
Meanwhile, PBun and Jeff met up to ride
At Prince William Forest Park, if you like

PBun only did two times on the loop
Then a trail brick run if you want the scoop

Before they knew it it was Thanksgiving week
PBun scooted out of town for a little treat
Riley was her co-pilot on the journey by car
And 560 miles is really not that far...

She ran America’s Turkey Trot with RBug
While Riley played with Izzy the new little pup!
She also banged out the Rock This Town Turkey Trot
She’s all about double dipping these virtual races, is she not?
On Thanksgiving STUR did her very own turkey trot 8K...
There were many other trotters on the trail - such a beautiful day!
JRab made enough food for probably 8 folks-
They had leftovers for many days - no joke!

Virtually Perfect Rap

Saturday morning PBun did not sleep in
Not for lack of trying, is that a sin?
Met Laura at 9:30 to ride the NS loop
It was a fabulous day to be out there that's the truth! 

Afterwards she worked in her yard for a bit...
Raking was on tap as it's the season for it!
Saturday morning at the gym is where STUR could be found -
She was greeted with deadlifts, burpees, and ring dips for thirty rounds!
After the workout a fun plan was hatched:
Off to the drive in movie to see “Pitch Perfect” they would later dash!

Sunday morning she was down for a run...
And the RNR virtual 5k Vegas sounded like fun!

More yard work was waiting involving the leaves
And believe it or not after she took a nap if you please!
Sunday she met up with the Beast at her old haunt -
At Chinquapin they made the most of their 45 minute pool jaunt!
