NMM

  • A great group of guys on Friday
  • About 2 miles total, 60 burpees, 50 merkins, ~50WWIIs, and OYO Squats (~100).
  • The plan originally was to use a hill off of research parkway for running and bear crawling, but the grass had not been mowed in a while, so the alternate plan was used.
  • We launched on our run after Snake Eyes arrived… which was after Razzie!
  • Bevo HCed and promised to modify as necessary with his tender Achilles. He did a good job modifying, but unfortunately, the alt plan had a bit more running than originally planned.
  • The PAX enjoyed the cable Merkins. Snake Eyes was solo for his his merkins on the opposite side and learned how much easier it was to do Merkins with men nearby for the last few.
  • Great to run with Undertow who I believe just had a 2.0 graduate?! #TClaps
  • Lambchop is excited about the 8 acres Twin Cities Church purchased near downtown, and YHC is excited about it as well. I thinks its going to be awesome for his church! 
  • The Concrete Wall off of Long Branch Trail promised too much fun, and YHC couldn’t resist a quick Omaha to have the PAX climb it. 
  • Cheesesteak literally crawls like how a bear runs, cadence and everything. #Stud
  • Cheesesteak did not appreciate the paint, which made the concrete quick slippery.
  • Zima had to move down to the shorter end of the wall after Lambchop’s recommendation. 
  • Zima suffered through Crab Walks much to our enjoyment.
  • Red Baron’s lead was so significant YHC used it as an excuse for us all to sync up and head to the third crosswalk together. #FastHole
  • Post Hole is a prime example of a good Site Q, keeping Bevo company as he modified due to the achilles. #HIM

 

Great way to kick off my Friday, thanks for posting, men! And thanks for the keys, Post Hole! In all honestly, YHC kept them and made multiple copies at Home Depot, which were then distributed at Q-school!,
