Took a while but YHC got around to writing this BB knowing one day the fine men of Churham will one day create a search engine for looking up the names of PAX to find their BB. In that spirit knowing 10-30 years down the line these will be categorically analyzed by our grandchildren to uncover our secrets to longevity I will record the memorable events of 3/9/22. That being said the expectation that anyone else read this are slim to none, surprise me though if you will and feed my budding authors prolific ego with a gummy if you will (TPS Reports created a gummy Emoji you can push the button NOW!).
I'd decided a week in advance to base this workout on the 29-30 years (depending on who you ask) that Hiroo Onoda fought in the forests of the Philippines after WWII.

I went to the AO the evening before with my 2 son's to do driving practice and prepare for the workout based on Hiroo's 29-30 years spent as a Shinto Bandit in the forests of the Philippines. I decided upon a few new exercises and new locals for the site and once the 8 dancing ladies were done in the parking lot where I needed to move logs about. Alas after a little over an hour at the site I had a good plan, a new found hill with lots of thorns and many new jewels I'd unearthed from the depths of the site.

Morning of:
I get up bright and sprightly at 4 to a torrential downpour and by 4:30 lesser AO's are making plans to get under cover and spreading false alarms about lightning. The plan was on though as the night before I'd announced at preblast that the Title of this Workout (Hall of Fame worthy some are even conferring about) 'Ain't Ducking for Cover' has a totally misplaced apostrophe unless we're trying to say that Ain is a which in case we'd be making a further leap that Ain Not is a word so they finally decided that Ain't is the only proper word.
I arrive at the site at 5 to whack some thorn bushes from the hill because the day before the 8 dancing ladies kept me from doing so, they definitely would've called the Cops seeing a raving man with a machete climbing a hill and whacking random bushes in the back of a church lot. If you've read this far you're either a Saint or an Idiot, you decide. Anyways by 5:29 the ruckers all arrive together having rucked on the other or else doing something else under cover to which I'm not privy. I quit the rucking movement after Rambler just so happened to coincidentally revive the Tuesday MMHT right when I was announced as CoSiteQ of the Piranha at the same time. Ever sense then I've become a runner and the Ruckers won't let me in on their debauchery.
5:31 it's on, only 6 of us but at least we're not taking Cover unlike the other 8 Wednesday Churham AO's that day which all sought some form of shelter.
