We had a great crew out today. It was good to see some new faces. Hopefully you all make it back out. Props to Baracus and 49er for running in from The Rock. Funny I haven’t seen anyone running from Day Zero over there. Weird. Mighty Mite also showed up early to get in a mile on the track
Spackler did not waste time getting to it. Warm up was short and sweet and then we started working our chest. Not much chatter during this. Pretty sure 49er and Haze were using a different counting system as they finished when most PAX were at 11 on the countdown.
Congrats to Chipotle, Mighty Mite and one other (comment to be recognized) for winning the relay. Chipotle finished strong for the victory. This was not easy.
YHC was sure when he called squats with bag throws all his precious bags would be destroyed. All but one made it. I should never doubt my craftsmanship. I should note that the one that busted was in Dora’s possession for the last 10 days. He showed up with it having some questionable tape on it. As they say, when you want something done right….
Semi-Gloss went Donkey Kong on us and got out of his shirt half way through. Much smoother skin than DK though. Not to be out done Hoff stripped down to a sweat soaked, stretched out tank at the end. Hoff also hard committed to doing Go Ruck. He will now have to trade in his weighted fishing vest for a Ruck. Purple Haze is considering so Ruckers get in his ear.
Coffeteria note- Hops showed up with his 2.0 looking very clean. He said he didn’t post because he was going on vacation today. He wasn’t on vacation, just leaving for it later today. His 2.0 told him they should not have showed up. Sometimes children can be so wise.
Announcements-
Great workout guys. It was my first visit to Day Zero and it will definitely not be my last. Spackler at the start punch us right in the face with the 200+ merkin pyramid. Strong! And P Haze and I kept it honest as always. I had heard about Radar’s bags of pain and, I will admit that Good Hands, Semi Gloss and I tried to bust ours during the squat tosses. Radar must have spent a small fortune wrapping those things in duct tape bacause Gloss was pounding that thing to the ground and not one granule of sand escaped. T-claps to Stone Cold and Big League Chew for keeping the rucks on the entire time. Great way to end the week.
