“We’re gonna need to drop some weight”

Date: 2025-03-31 AO: chubby-hubby Q: Orange Whip PAX: baracus, Mr Brady, hoover, turkey_leg, Orange Whip FNGs: None COUNT: 5 2025’s inaugural Horsey kicked off with a blast…literally.
4 men started on the hills and Baracus made his way back to launch to catch Brady on the flats.
Turkey Leg and I lost Yeti for a while. We speculated that (as Yeti’s commonly do) he may be hiding in the woods, preparing to jump out and grab us.
Nay, he had found the Honey Bucket (West coast for Port-a-John) at the bottom of Yucca and Yucca’d it all up. We joked that he had to drop weight as he was over capacity to make the climb up Yucca. Too much cargo to make that ascent. The laborers have a great surprise when they show up to the job site today.
Great mild temps, steady pace and a traditional pledge at the end.
Mr Brady was back after an elbow dislocation playing soccer (you had to be there – I was).
Prayer was said and Brady and Baracus confined chatting, even though they had a long two man run together :men_holding_hands:
I guess BRR season is here.
Good work boys :clap:

Exit Music (for a Beatdown)

Date: 2025-03-29 AO: olympus Q: Krzyzewski PAX: flipper, Mountain Momma, Wabbit, Floyd, Cottonmouth, taggart, ickey_shuffle FNGs: None COUNT: 8 A coterie of pax descended upon the hallowed Calvary pavement this morning to (i) get better, (ii) embrace the suck, and (iii) guess exit songs from movies from YHC’s dumb playlist. While the pax flawlessly executed (i) and (ii), some of the comments for (iii) left YHC wondering if he watches too many movies? But like, who hasn’t seen Heat? (Note to Floyd, you need to watch this.) Nevertheless, solid morning. The temp is hitting just right this year and if you can ignore the clouds of pollen swelling in your lungs, it’s a truly delightful time for a beatdown. To that end, the pax vanquished week 8 of Joe Daniels’ latest :rainbow: nightmare with aplomb. The “Pump Ladder Finish” earned its status as a final level boss – however, Mountain Momma’s creative method for tracking our progress quite literally put the knife through its dark, cardboard heart.

Those who seek details will find them in the treasured posts on Slack – Continued prayers for The Worm and his family – keep up the fight, brother – “You are not your job. You’re not how much money you have in the bank. You are not the car you drive. You’re not the contents of your wallet.” – Tyler Durden COT: Joined up with the men of the Rock for COT

Exercises that will absolutely get us kicked out of a parking lot

Date: 2025-03-28 AO: centurion Q: Runstopper PAX: Cheese Curd, Circuit City, Snuka, Point Break, snowflake FNGs: None COUNT: 7 WARMUP: prior to the workout, Runstopper, I mean I showed the boys that I was double spandexing it. Nobody ask you me, but I think someone was curious. Your welcome.
Dropped a :hankey: disclaimer as we headed off. I was feeling pretty good, now what should we do…
THE THANG: 100 SSH/ thought that would take 10 mins….panic set in! Jog to first parking lot, pair up on the lines and 5,10,15,20 merkins as you move to the right. Ok, that how it looked in my head. Actually, there were pax all over the place. This isn’t looking good. Well, let’s shuttle run between parking cones. Whew, that got me tired. Ok, this is why I wear yoga pants. A whole bunch of strange broga moves and most of them contained the phrasing, spread your legs boys, wider, stiff leg! Oh, and 1 more to kill your spine….roll on your back on the sweet asphalt!
Run to the front of the building we just visually molested. Against the wall squat and 100 jack webs…. Cheese Curd was thinking this was BS and was thinking that Runstopper thought this would also take 10 mins….nope. Also a bunch of Mak-tar-Jai or however you spell it against the building. Even some more broga stretching and an opportunity the share a positive moment from yesterday
Then run up the road/hill. It was steeper than I thought and I got tired. At least that’s was cheese curd was thinking. More deep squats and talk of people eating and peeing in this position. I never told them you don’t do that at the same time.
Run to the top and around the corner. More deep squats. Pass Case D’Cheese Curd. If I would have known could have had some coffee ready.
Finish the run to the shopping mall. Every door front do 10 squats. Cheese Curd was regretting not pulling the plug as we passed his place. Here we go…. There are so many doors! I have a random story about every store!
Ok back to launch, that last part was a really clock killer, finally!!
MARY: who dis ho! Nah….leg day Brah! ANNOUNCEMENTS: maybe COT: continue the theme of staying positive and acknowledging the positive things in your life.
Missing 2 pax…sorry.
