Recycling Day

Recycling Day

Packed the Toyota with 6 cinder blocks and 2 KBs (40 & 45).  Utah rode with me and was in the dark on the gear.  He noticed the blocks while stretching next to the cargo hold.  He uttered a remark of disgust that I quickly forgot.  Likely due to the Anvil gear hangover provided by Alf on Wednesday. TR came in hot, but in time for the 13 PAX to count off 1 and 2 prior to disclaimer.  Off we went.

Brisk mosey down Conlan.  Left on Brixham across Bally Corp to Bull Ring.  Circle up in plank.

Ran this workout the last time YHC Q’d The Brave 01/29/2016.  Really enjoyed the workout and had some great feedback afterwards, so decided to run it back.  Mario called it from the gate on the run to the Bull Ring.  Felt compelled to tell the crew it was a recycle.  MT threw a jab at lack of Q creativity.  Fair enough.  The weather was much better for round 1 when we had 4 fewer cinder blocks and 4 more men.  The humidity #smoked YHC.

Fast group of guys today.  No real surprises.  Welcome to site FNG’s Meatloaf and Rachel.  We realized we were a man down upon arrival at the deck.  Quick survey and our missing PAX was Meatloaf.  Site Q Thin Mint took off to look for him.  No sign of him on the search mission.  We realized his car was gone when we got back to launch for COT.  YHC followed up electronically to make sure he was OK.  Good news, he was just fine.  Some minor cramping and the stop at launch provided the perfect exit strategy.  He assured me he will make his exit known should he bow out early again.  He was crushing it.

T-claps to Frasier for carrying a cinder block from launch lot to bridge.  Pop Tart did the same with a KB.  Utah appears to enjoy running with large objects.  He was crushing as well.  Mario was right next to me on two occasions to offer relief, thankfully.  TR has gotten quite fast and Champagne really impressed on one of the sprints.  Great to see Hairball out today.  Had to give him a hard time about hands hitting pavement #purerunner.  He had gloves and killed it.  Buckeye took his tank off in COT.  Just as jacked as last week at BROlympics.  Whole crew pushed hard today.

Appreciate the invite from Thin Mint to Q The Brave.  Always a tough workout.  Solid work men.
