It’s been over a year since my last Anvil reunion… so I was thrilled to have another opportunity to lead at the best Area 51 Wednesday morning AO! YHC pulled into the parking lot with no time to spare (supposedly). Snowflake ran in from home, I gave a quick disclaimer, and we were off to the races.

Mosey (quickly) back to launch for COT
Moleskin:
Great early spring morning for a workout…still a little chilly, but not freeze your nuts off cold. Philosophical question: are GPS watches chronologically accurate? Cause when I arrived at the launch point I thought I had at least two minutes before go-time, but everyone looked at me like they had somewhere they needed to be. Side note…My M actually sets her car clock ahead by 5 minutes… I have no idea why. She gets some strange sense of satisfaction when she thinks she’s running late and then remembers that she has another 5 minutes and feels a sense of relief. Just don’t get it, but I think Mermaid may do the same thing… I started late and ended late. Sorry Mermaid… we need to sync our watches. On a positive note…everyone got their money’s worth.
Thanks Brilleaux for putting up with your partner… sorry for the name mixup… YHC has very poor memory. I blame the alcohol.
Ickey – nice job with the burpees..October is a long time from now. This is they year the Bengals arrive.
Champagne kept calling out YHC for leaving the six behind, although I don’t see how you can do that when you stay in the same spot. Sorry – I’m not Q-ing as much as I used to and I’m out of practice. Good to see you brother!
Snooka and Scabby were big fans of the partner exercises… particularly the shoulder press exercises. Nothing to be ashamed of.
Uncle Phil and Lorax were looking good out there’ll. Lorax is looking to replace the Anvil shovel flag that is hidden somewhere in Lobster Roll’s house…what better way than with a shovel branded “Anvil”.
Good to have some Metro guests… Boondoggle came south to support YHC and Little Pig ( a recent F3 convert that lives in Matthews) came with. Thanks fellas! Boon… you killed it out there! Lead the way the entire workout.
COT: Keep praying for Red Rocks
