Hills, fellowship, milestones, and football — Chicken Run delivered it all.
HazMat is still running

End of an Era
Date: 2025-08-30 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: Mountain Momma, voodoo, MARTA, taggart FNGs: None COUNT: 5 The weather…fantastic. The playlist…forgettable. The weinke…absolute grind. With this backdrop, five pax chose discomfort this morning as we vanquished the latest spreadsheet. The ABC program has been an exercise in stamina across relentless reps covering our meat and potatoes moves. While YHC isn’t exactly sad it’s over, he will miss the acute focus on deltoid development. Weinkes of the past have definitely targeted shoulders, but not many had a greater than one double press per minute of workout ratio. Intense. Mumblechatter today was strong and free flowing as usual. The kickoff of college football always provides ample topics, but things took an interesting turn when we covered the merits of cheese. In one tangent, t-claps to Mountain Momma for offering up the most creative ‘death row’ last meal YHC has ever heard…basically an entire block of cheese and a loaf of bread, which when paired with an electric chair would turn you into a human-sized mozzarella stick. Equal parts delicious and disgusting. With that, let’s get into the recap… WARMUP: Swings (10x), prying squats, hi-pulls (5x e/s), synovial circles, one-handed swings (5x e/s), slingshots (7x e/w) THE THANG: 1) Modified ABC Complex EMOM (20 min.) · Double cleans (2x) · Double front squats (3x) 2) Sorta Fibonacci Sequence of Double Presses (7 sets) · 2x / 3x / 5x of double presses each set 3) Double Carries! · Several rounds of up and back to the side curb with double bells – we worked in waiters, racks, and shrugs for good measure MARY: One round of a glutebridge, which took us to 60 mins. on the dot ANNOUNCEMENTS: – :briefcase: Labor Day Convergence (9/1) See Slack for details…there should be a gear option for those so inclined – :us: 9/11 Memorial Workout (9/6) 2,200 steps at Piedmont High School in Union Co. (see Slack for details) – :drop_of_blood: Next Blood Drive (10/3) (details to come on Slack) – :pray: Continued prayers for The Worm as he tackles recovery – :tada: Enjoy the loooong weekend, fellas! Go sports! COT: Geraldo took out the joint groups in the COT

I pulled 2
Date: 2025-08-29 AO: ufo-ultimatefriz Q: Spyglass PAX: MARTA, Broken Arrow, David Baker, Mayo, Mr Brady, Pfeffer, smokey, Spyglass, Yeti, Situation, Aïoli, Trivette FNGs: 2 Aïoli, Trivette COUNT: 20 Pregame About 6 braved the dark field feat. Mr. Brady warming up the ole engine and a FNG wondering if anyone was going to show up or if he just got pranked. Sadly, by surely, majority of pax arrived between 0517 and 0519, with play starting shortly after.
The Game Yellow came out firing on all cylinders. Biden realized he had a right wrist to be reckoned with. At one part he may have whispered, “Shank Who?” after dropping one on for a score. FNG Aïoli is a pure thoroughbred just up from the Oakhurst Farm System. Apparently they have been grooming him for months, because he made immediate impact.
At one point, Bullystick, who thankfully finished his homework, started down the middle exclaiming “I pulled two” leaving Vicky and Spy debating whether he currently has two girlfriends or that he drew two defenders. We will let you all be the judge. A pretty early white flag of surrender by former-commissioner Vicky led to a Mayo-Smokey trade. Little did he know, Mayo was prepped and ready to follow through with the script he was given to sabotage red further. Mayo did very Un-Mayo-Like things. And Smokey was in SEC football mid season form. Play was about even post-trade with yellow cruising to a comfortable start-to-finish romping.
COT Marta with the coffee that hit just right Welcome FNGs Aioli and Trivette Prayer Requests for Spy’s dad (still in hospital) & Fly’s friend who’s mom just passed.
Yellow (winners): Spy Pinkeye Yeti Broken Arrow Aioli Smokey (50/50) Gumnut Situation Muckout
Red (losers): Marta Bullystick Peaches Mayo (50/50) Mr. Brady Pfeffer Fly With Me Dora Vicky Trivette *hold me accountable on the teams
