6 Isotope PAX and 1 Nomad, they call MiniMe, posted for a pre-Easter Pain hunt. Most pain was found in cadence but some was done OYO until YHC realized PAX was numerically challenged… or uh, special.

The Clown Car (Special Bus) showed up and did not disappoint. Mumblechatter galore. YHC, again with Clown Car present, counted exercises on my own.

Striker apologized profusely for the actions of S'mores and Shaken. He also inquired on how to effectively drop out of future clown cars. Not an option.

S'mores (WarDaddy) was self-appointed co-Q for much of the workout although his OYO counting ability is in question. His request for the PAX to hold-up on multiple occasions was well-received. Hope the "potty break" to get out of THEE Burpee was worth it. 

Shaken knocked out the WWII sit-ups w/ rock without his rock and dammit he didn't care who knew. He also effectively counted how many F-bombs were dropped. Don't believe he's stopped counting yet.

Landline and Thug (OG) provided the summary commentary of the Clown Car. Each of them crushed every exercise while keeping up with the chatter. Not easy to do. Well done men. 

Finally we were graced by the presence of a true nomad. The infamous MiniMe himself. He showed up late which is understandable for a first-timer. It was nice to be in his presence and learn from him the "true" ways to call an exercise. Like he would know. He's posted in Isotope twice in the last 9 months. Can someone contact the Nantaan or VP and let them know MiniMe could use some Q-school? Oh yeah, thanks for picking the weeds while you were here and helping to keep the grounds tidy. Come back again!

In all seriuosness, it is morings like this that bring me the most joy. A group of men that don't take themselves too seriously working together and pushing each other while having fun at one another's expense. What a great way to start a Saturday morning and Easter weekend. I'm honored to lead these men and appreciative of the push they provide to go farther than I would on my own. Thank you!
