March 20, 2021

WHEN: 03/20/2021
QIC: Maraschino
PAX: Banana Skin (2.0), Bonsai (2.0), Bright Idea, Bump Draft, Cardiac, Coxswain, Flap Jack, Funyun, Green Acres, Madden (2.0), Quicken (Respect), Pick Axe (2.0), Shark Tank (Respect), Splash Back, Stroke, Uzi (Respect), Wawa

“Well, if it’s gonna be dark the whole time anyway, let’s do some EC.”–Bonsai (2.0)

11 for EC, which included stair running led by Cardiac and some intimacy with blocks and bricks.  Penalty for setting blocks and bricks was a blockee.

Before the start of ME, TBR Co-Site Q Bump Draft presented Uzi and YHC with “Birthday Princess” sashes, which were worn through the ME.  Uzi took his off before Coffeeteria, but YHC kept wearing his sash because he is secure in his manhood.

  • LBACs and reverse
  • Overhead claps

The Thang #1 (The Last Annual Centenarian Games*)

YHC attempted to explain the purpose behind the workout, but the PAX kept interrupting his monologue with birthday noisemakers.  If you want to read more behind the inspiration behind this evolution, read here, here, or here.

PAX retrieved writing utensils and sheets of paper to record their results from the Olympic events and carried them throughout the Thang. 

  • Max burpees in 4 minutes
  • Max alternating derricks (single-leg deadlift) in 4 minutes
  • Max Merkins in 2 minutes
  • Run 800 for time
  • Max WW2s in 4 minutes
  • Bear crawl 50 yards for time
  • Max Squats in 4 minutes

 

*Nobody asked, but the reason it is called the “Last Annual” is that too many things are called “First Annual,” and it presumes a future that may never come.

Ring of fire with each PAX contributing 5 Merkins.

COT

Green Acres offered prayers for Uzi and hopes that he would make it to 56.  Shark Tank thanked the PAX for the support in his move and his transition to the next chapter of his life.  Name-a-rama.  YHC took us out by noting the number of 2.0s at TBR and the importance of continuing to encourage these young men to come out and being good role models for them.

“That was hard.”–Bonsai (with a smile on his face)

 

15 for Coffeeteria (including one Starsky).

My brother-in-law (Twinkle Toes from F3 Augusta) and his whole family just surprised me with a visit.  If it weren’t for Twinkle Toes EHing me, I wouldn’t be writing this backblast.  It didn’t take a lot of convincing from Twinkle Toes, but I am so thankful he did and am so grateful for all of the support the PAX of F3 Churham have provided to my son (Madden) and me over the past 18 months.  This is a special community, and we are all better for being part of it.  As we emerge from the pandemic, I hope there are many opportunities to EH FNGs and bring more into the fold.  Aye.
