I believe there were 2 for the standard. Also with us but not on the site: Hurricane
Today would have been the perfect day to fartsack, but 10 dedicated men woke up and decided today was a day to get a little bit better- to seek out the rain and play in it, to sacrifice that nice pair of sneaks for the chance to splash in some puddles, to keep the patch of land under them a little drier than the patches around it.
Some inspiration for your Monday morning: as you read the verses below, keep in mind that Paul was writing this from a Roman prison, full of joy in the midst of his suffering, knowing that his suffering had meaning and purpose, and that inspired by his suffering & imprisonment, the Good News that Jesus came to save US was being shared with great boldness in the land.
Philippians 1:27-28 "Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God."

Mosey to pullups bars on playground
THE THANG:
The Circle Squat
Everyone circle up around the pullup bars and begin squatting. One at a time go to pullup bars and do as many pullups as possible, until you need a spot for your last rep. When finished, continue squatting until everyone has finished pullups. This tribal exercise turned out to be a bit primitive, but effective. All said we did one more pullup than each of us cared to do, along with copious amounts of squats. Ramrod claims to have counted over 1,000 squats, but we're not sure if he was referring to the group or just himself.
Mosey to cinder blocks and partner up

We did NOT get a chance to do the Superman this morning!! Poor form YHC, poor form. What is it called when one refers to one's own third person in the third person?
MOLESKINE:
– Nordberg, thanks for the chance to Q at Vanquisher. A man with MQ duties while having 3 carseats in the back of his car is worth noting. A tip of the cap to you sir
– A svelte, hooded figure emerged from the shadows just prior to GO time. Had it not been for his arrival in the Vermillion clown car, I might not have recognized the lean, mean fighting machine known as Glitch. The dedication is paying off man, great to see you out again this morning, sorry we got that sweatshirt soggy
– I think Kozar might have done 30 pullups. Ka-pow! Tclaps sir
