Several PAX were already in full participation by 0630. We had our faithful 0500 Ruckers and even had Heisenberg on the bike. Lots of great action on the field as well.

It was dark and muggy, but still a beautiful morning. Pheidippides didn’t arrive at 0500. It was more like 0522, but he basically shot straight out of his car into a full sprint and probably got 1.5 miles in. Here what the nine of us did this morning.

I typically like to incorporate mileage in most of my Qs, but running in this humidity wouldn’t be fun. I appreciate Gummy Bear choosing to come to the better workout this morning and using dropping off chairs as the excuse so OCB’s feelings wouldn’t be hurt. Also, glad Scarecrow threw on the vest, so I didn’t end up doing it alone. Glad to see Cornholio and also glad he was able to figure out the daft punk lunge since I failed to demonstrate it for him. 2005 got after it today. Glad he is back out at the bootcamps during the week!
Probably could have squeezed in the last set of exercises to complete 2 full rounds, but honestly those sucked a lot.
Prayers to The Mick with his colonoscopy today. Still praying for 4Howa and Coors. Praying for speedy recoveries.
Don’t forget about the Fantasy Football Fellowship opportunity at Federali’s this Friday. Don’t need to draft a team to hang out, swim, eat, and/or drink. Fill out the poll please.
Sunday is the annual Pig & Pints event. Please fill out those polls as well. Hope you all can make it. It will be an awesome time. It will be even more awesome if you show up. Make sure to reach out to PAX that don’t check Band regularly so they don’t miss the event.
Always a pleasure and honor to lead you all through a beat down. I’ll see most of you again on Saturday for Lights Out’s born again VQ.

Looks like we ended up with 17 PAX today. Not too shabby for a Saturday. Over 20K steps as I type this up. Probably shouldn’t have workout this morning to save myself for the Wiffle Ball Tournament. That is the excuse I am going to use for my poor performance. Lots of studs out there.
This beatdown was harder than I thought. I definitely blame the burpees. I thought running after burpees was hard with the Sharknado. Running and then doing burpees also sucks. The 3-minute round was too much in my opinion. Oh well. We got through it.
T-claps to the mulchers, preruckers, Gummy Bear and Class Act for getting some work in before they had to leave. 2005 and Mickey Tints for putting in some solid mileage. Extra T-claps to BooBoo and Heisenberg for being super fans at the wiffle ball tournament.
Thanks again to those that led the rest of the workout and COT.
No words of wisdom today. Just keep posting. Sign up for a Q if you haven’t done one in a while. For the newer PAX, time to start looking for a headlamp.
It is always a blast hanging out with all of you gentlemen. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
SYITG,
HHH
