At 4:30am, 4:35am, and 4:40am a symphony of alarm clocks was set to break my restful slumber, in hopes that I avoid a repeat of the embarrassment of the prior morning. Much to my delight I awoke with the first alarm and was able to cancel the subsequent two, much to my M’s delight, even if she didn’t know it. I hustled about getting ready, got the truck started and gave it a few minutes to warm up, before setting out at the 48mph max speed. Arriving at the AO at 5:25, I was relieved to see that at least two other souls were willing to give me a second chance. As 6 people assembled and gave me the good-natured ribbing I deserved, I was relieved to hear Whirly’s watch strike 5:30, and we were off. Sgt. Schultz arrived half way through WoR, I guess that is the perk of being such a high ranking CO.

    That looks brutal—almost like you were cramming two workouts into one! Well done!

      It was- one of those where you think during the beatdown, “I wish I had fartsacked”, but after it was over you think, “I’m glad I didn’t fartsack.”
