COP

Moleskin:

Great turnout today by the faithful – the 40 count set a non-convergence record at The Rock!  T-claps to all you guys.  5 FNGs, 4 2.0s, and 8 Doubledowners – T-claps again fellas!  Stonehenge + The Rock = Petrological DoubleDown.

Much chatter among the pax on a beautiful spring morn; however, YHC heard a lot of mumblechatter regarding the cold, wet turf, thus, the audible to Burpees during She Hate Me.  Kudos to FNG The Tumbler for brushing himself off after a head-over-heels tumble down NorthFace; hence, the nickname.  Great sport though vowed to return Monday morning for Base Camp – Aye!

Strong lead from my co-Q Runstopper who continued to bring the pain even after 90 minutes of workouts as he DoubledDown.  Good humor during Jack Webbs with the slow merkins then thrash count merkins, fuzzy math, etc. –> produced much chatter; but painful stuff regardless.  The burpees during the relay were especially unsavory as well.

5 FNGs – The Tumbler, Checkpoint, Schrute, Yeti and Upstate – strong work and look forward to having you guys out again soon.  And T-claps to Mic Check who was an FNG yesterday at Centurion and posted at The Rock today.

Thanks to Skywalker for the prayer to close out COP; and a big crowd at coffeteria. #2ndF

Proud to be a part of the pax and bring my 2.0 along for F3 with a solid group of men.

The Matrix and Base Camp – see you guys Monday morning in the 5:30am gloom of Area 51!
