With A Little Help From My Friends

It was fifty years ago tomorrow, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play.  Hard to believe that Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was released 50 years ago tomorrow – on June 1, 1967.  What better way to celebrate than with 12 friends at the workout that just won’t die located somewhere between Metro and Area 51…The Charge.

Mosey from parking lot to near end zone.

Fancy digs at The Charge were made even fancier with the presence of none other than Mr. Fancy, @CrotchRocket, for his first post ever to The Charge.  Guess we’ve lost our rogue status forever now.

@Raider stepped out of his radius and his comfort zone by traveling more than 2 miles for a workout this morning.  Even drove right by Atlas and Prometheus to join us.  He was very disappointed that the track at The Charge isn’t really heated.  He also didn’t like the music and kept prattling on about The Clash.  At least YHC cut out the partner work including partner carries that were on the original plan.

@GAAP tried to hijack the Q sometime after the sevens.  @Nibbler wouldn’t let him have it.

@Wuerffel was cranky and very disappointed in the name we came up with for our FNG.  He didn’t think @OldBay was creative enough but we didn’t hear him suggest anything better.

@Nibbler kept calling for 10 counts which YHC takes as a good sign that the workout was sufficient.

@Pigskin counted in several different languages.  @Tesla made inappropriate comments in at least two different languages.

@Monk, @Chowda and @Wuerffel appeared out of nowhere sometime during the 50 SSH.  #FashionablyLate

The non F3 guys on the track passed us all during the Burpee Mile like we were standing still.  And then proceeded to go on a long run as we were in COT.

I love seeing Q’s by the ‘Fish. Spread that guy around. Apparently if you cut off one of his legs, it’ll grow back…

Awesome theme for a great album.
