Realizing that July 14 is Bastille Day in France – their national holiday and the official ‘start’ of the French Revolution – YHC decided to try a themed workout for a change. The Bastille was a fort and prison and a symbol of the monarchy of Louis XVI and his tone deaf wife Marie Antoinette, \u00a0<\/em> which the common rabble known as the “Third Estate” challenged and eventually overthrew. Though there were only a few actual prisoners in the fort, the rebels eventually beat off the guards, freed the prisoners, confiscated the gunpowder and the weapons and then moved on…..yada yada yada …Napoleon eventually came to power, with a lot happening in between.<\/p>\n

With the six Respects leading the charge (some may have been there), it went as follows.<\/p>\n

Giles and his family as they prepare to move back into their house later in the summer<\/p>\n

To those taking care of elderly parents. YHC has been dealing with this challenge over the summer, along with other PAX.<\/p>\n

NMM<\/p>\n

YHC had briefly refreshed himself on the history of the day, trying to recall high school history class. Part of the revolutionary sound track included “Free Bird” by Lynrd Skynrd and legend has it (at least from my high school teacher in Alabama) that the rebels listened to it as they got fired up for the actual storming. Burlap expressed skepticism however.<\/p>\n

Rustbucket was on fire and way too far ahead of the Pax, which YHC tried to keep together in the name of\u00a0liberte, egalite, and fraternite.\u00a0<\/em>After upping it a notch at the wall with a BTTW finale he may have lost some momentum. YHC’s goal has always been to outlast Green Acres on BTTW – suspect he was humoring me a little –\u00a0 but managed to prevail by one second.<\/p>\n

Fun group and amazing work by all!<\/p>\n

Thanks for the keys Green Acres, may have left them in the fort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
