The Good Old Naked Mole Skin:
- Who gave YHC a Q… its been a while since I had one but damn it felt good. Might have to do it again in a year or so.
- YHC was expecting to see overflow parking after 37 men HC’ed at the convergence yesterday. Overflow parking was not needed. The normal crew seemed to be there all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Except Hoodie, I think he was still asleep when his daughter dropped him off at exactly 5:30. She wished him luck and drove off. I was told he gets dropped off so he can get a few more minutes of sleep on the commute in. Makes sense, do not hate the idea. #smarthood
- At 5:30 smokey took off through the parking lot at a sub 6 pace! Even took a shortcut to hit BCP faster. The PAX followed. Unfortunately, it was short lived, he throttled back down allowing Frodo Baggins and Kachow to rightfully lead us to the park at a blistering pace. These two pushed the pace most the morning.
- Kachow is a great F3 name by the way. KA – CHOW…. I like it. I have no clue what it means but h/t to whoever came up with that name. Someone remind me to ask him next time he posts.
- The playground pain was not fun. 100 of anything sucks. But what sucks more is actually trying to keep track of a total of 400 movements. Don’t lie, you know there was a time during all that when you lost track at where you were and started looking around thinking… I wonder when the other guy I going to go. Popcorn at one point looked towards the end and said “ill just following you to gather oaks”.
- I think Enron or Auto (maybe both) took to the upper deck of the playset to do the LBCs. I thought that was a wild move but after watching Officer Kimble shake out woodchips from his Tommy Johns boxer briefs, I think they had the right idea.
- The PAX did not like Gathering Oaks. I am not sure why? It seems like such a pleasant street. I am going to blame the disdain for this street on the burpees and not the weird blue lights, random holes in fences, massive amounts of cars parked three wide in the driveways and abandoned carousel rides.
- Note to all future FKT Qs. This PAX does not like when they do not know “how many” of something to do. All morning on Gathering Oaks; “ Yo BC ! How many are we doing?” “what do you mean just run until you say stop”, “BC this is trash I need to know how many we are doing”.
- Great work by all PAX at the park for the second round of pain. I know it hurt. Shrooms blacked out and was walking around mumbling to himself in between the greatest box step ups ever seen.
Great morning fellas. Expected a lot more mumble chatter but hard to chat when exhaustion kicks in. Congrats to Frodo DonHo on taking the crown. Shoutout to our notable MIAs this morning which include but not limited to: Lotti, TC, Cherry Bomb, Poptart, LEGO and other.
Announcements: Christmas party soon! Bring your own Tacos and Beer. Date TBD… Time will be Friday afternoon 4:30-5:45 at the abandoned Golden Corral off Exit 36. Don’t want to miss it…
