Some of the called exercises were squats, curb jumps, wall step ups, v-ups, heels to heaven, LBC.

Still Chubby Hubby

Date: 2023-09-25 AO: chubby-hubby Q: baracus PAX: baracus, Broken Arrow, Full House, hopper, hoover, Spammer FNGs: None COUNT: 6 Six men arrived on this cool, crisp Monday morning to get their day off to a good start. Apparently their should have been at least seven. Hoover arrived with 75 pounds of who knows what in a backpack with grand plans to ruck the hills of Horsey; however, his ruck-mate Horsehead was nowhere to be found. I think the Chester nightmares got the better of him. So we all set off for the greenway to get our miles. Five runners all went for 5+ and Hoover rucked his 75 lb sack for about 2.5. Good company and conversation as usual. We’ll done this morning men!
COT: Pray for Hoover’s family and safe travels to Long Island as his wife’s family grieves and handles arrangements after the loss of her uncle
