If the Q can’t do it…….

If the Q can’t do it…….

43 of the fatihful – a new record at DMZ – posted this morning for a #beatDown that YHC wasnt even sure that he could do.

Ball of Man for a prayer to launch us in the right direction
Mosey to CMS

COT: SSH, IW, Mountain Climbers, Seal Jacks (led by Swiper), LBC, Squats, seems like there was something else but I don’t remember what it was.

Mosey to front parking lot only to discover that we had so many pax, there wasnt room for what YHC had planned. An audible was called and we moseyed to the football field.

Run back to Park (with a Jailbreak called by Swiper) to COT

Moleskin

It was awesome to see so many of the pax come out this morning. Lots of good #MumbleChatter from Swiper who made a special guest appearance from the Freedom Park crowd. Swiper and Agony were giving YHC grief about having to dig out their passports to come so far south for DMZ. Funny though, Agony lives about a mile away.

After the 2nd Layer of the Cake, YHC was starting to question if he could complete his own workout. A very wise member of the Area 51 pax once said “If you can’t Q it, don’t do it.” But the adrenaline of being around all the great energy from the Pax kept YHC going. Thanks guys.

Announcements:

Area 51 Labor Day Convergence workout next Monday at South Charlotte Middle School. Joker and Honeybee on Q. 0700 so no headlamps needed! NO DMZ NEXT WEEK.

Aftermath, one of our new 3rd F workouts, begins Wednesday September 4. 0630 at the Starbucks at Piper Glen (where Trader Joe’s is). We will be going through Search Ministries’ Foundations Study. Even if you cant make it every week, this is a great study to do. It’s topic based and is designed in such a way that missing a week or so doesnt minimize what you will get out of the study. Busch and Skywalker will Q.

It’s getting darker and darker, thus gloomier and gloomier; but I could see Love Bug as he was next to me on the gridiron. The man was flying out there – nice work brother. #smokeboots

Based on that workout, I may be changing my citizenship. Strong workout.
Running in between the lines I was having 15 year flashbacks (#hate), and realized I am working harder now then back then…#ifonly #glorydays

Hops…though having to dodge your vector run, you were smoking the post-birthday post as well.

Andele, areba–coming to the Area51 convergence!

Evidentlly elevation doesn’t have anything to do with Swipers odor impact on the PAX as the back blast for the weekend workout suggested. That or his system takes a long time to adjust back to regular elevation. Maybe that is also why he let an old man beat him in at least one of the layers #oldmanstrong. Metro guys might revoke your passport if they find out about that.

Within said ladder, men had to perform burpees. Yours truly stuck to protocol — two arms, two legs, up/down, repeat. Chelms went through burpees like a baby goes through diapers. I guess cutting corners is how things are done below the border. Those southies should be thankful I contained my emissions. Trying to bridge boundaries here…

My burpees meet the Spartan criteria and I had a doctor’s note to get me out of the merkin part of the burpee. Plus, a may about 20 years your elder has to have some way to keep up since my sprints are about 1/2 the speed of yours.

…says a Metro pax where they readily use and live out the familiar mantra: “If you ain’t cheatin’, you ain’t tryin’.”

I’ll give respect where it’s due, the DMZ is no country for weak men. I’ll bring more Metro PAX next time which will be sure to up the ante.

Aye! That’s the intent and, thus, the name brother. #F3Nation

If you bring more we might be able to recreate Battle of Gettysburg and set record for even a convergence. 43 is big enough (#breakitup)
