– Thanks to the Pax who came out, looking to do something different
– Trying to make this a weekly thing, so if you missed it or have some interest. We each had an extra bag, plus a ruck available, just reach out
– This is still in trial phase, hoping to make it a regular thing, so right now it sits on Wed 0515 at SCLT. Depending on the group or interest we could look at moving it. Still shopping for a permanent location as well. SCLT has been quite since the “Death at Death Valley”. However, still a good campus
– I forget how dark this location is, which is one of the reason I love it. Just the gloom! I also forgot that it was a CMS maintained school property. Apparently they have not cut the grass on the field since the beginning of Covid and we gathered a lot of the clippings on the field work today- yuck!
– Geraldo is an old pro moving heavy things. Today he brought out a #40 lb sandbag and was killing it, leading most of the AM
– Cotton Mouth rocked #50ish lbs and was hating the pavilion work with the extra 10lbs. Good work
– Lex Luthor had #40lb in a ruck which seemed to work well. He actually bought the sand when he could have just brought it from the beach. Either way proved that this workout works for both rucks and sandbags
-YHC was also rocking #40lb sandbag today
– Flipper HC’d but bailed this AM…however he agreed to Q next week, so we are good. He always brings it come out!
– This BB is dedicated to the boys in Waxhaw that seem to be dominating the BB page on the interwebs. Nice job men!

Nice job Cheese Curd, this is a good option to bootcamps and KB workouts. The burpee presses were unsavory. We could not see you on the track because it was dark and you were out front and pushing the pace. The SCMS football field will not be confused with Charlotte Christian. Looking forward to Flipper’s Q next week.
Nice work Curd! It was painful during the post but I keep thinking about how nice it’s going to be to go lay down tonight which is a clear sign of how much abuse we took! Geraldo, thanks for bringing up the six on one of our laps and to your point it was interesting when we couldn’t even see Curd then couldn’t hear him he was so far out ahead yet I’m sure you would’ve been there weren’t it for hanging back with me! LOL Lex, always good to see you. It was great to get back to the old DV AO too!! Looking forward to Flippers future pain delivery.
