Moleskin:
A quality lead by Radar this morning! This routine brought about some unpleasant memories from its introduction just a couple months ago. However, this group of 20 men was up for the challenge as we only missed our time goal on 2 of the exercises! Great work guys. Clearly this workout is a keeper as the O2 deprivation was high. We were constantly on the move, and there wasn’t alot of chatter this morning. Radar thanks for leading us!
I don’t have much material for the backblast so I’m taking a suggestion and repeating some of the moleskin from the first episode of this workout….
“So the morning started with me reading a late night text from Dora saying I may not make it. Something hurts…. blah blah blah. Keep in mind he has been telling me daily since Monday he would be there Wend. Must still be hiding under the covers with Go Ruck PTSD. Get back in the fight Dora- as we heard a thousand times Friday/Saturday.” … No Dora this morning either.
“Becky, posted 3 months ago for the first time and never showed his face again until today. (5 minutes late) Welcome back brother.” … No Becky this morning. Has anyone seen Becky?
“Bulldog mentioned that Bananas was puking after the first Indian Sprint. I asked Bananas about it and he said Bulldog was just jealous of him and trying to make him look weak. Lovers quarrels are fun to watch.” … I don’t believe there was any spillage this morning, but Hacksaw was looking a little green toward the end there. Get well soon brother!
Announcements:
Christmas Party on Saturday – try to carpool or park at Carmel Baptist, don’t forget to bring a dish, cash for raffle, and a bag of non-perishable food.

Baracus agreed to do the back blast as I thought I would be at the hospital with my 3 week old all day (again). Turns out it was just a runny nose. Just kidding, but no hospital. Tiger Rag, I don’t think getting the back blast done at Anvil would be a regular thing if you Qd there. However, just tell Haze to post where ever you Q and then tell him to do the back blast. He will.
So Bulldog was mentioned in 2 successive posts about having lovers quarrels with different members of the PAX: Bananas and Haggis. Interested to know if he only falls in love with those named after food? Some sort of eating disorder maybe? Who’s next in his sites? Lobster Roll? Turkey Leg? Crabcake? Stay tuned.
