So today’s title is for our brother, Bitcoin who alerted the PAX yesterday he was trying to get over a case of Montezuma’s Revenge he had picked up in Mexico over the weekend. YHC saw this at just the right time and thought “hell yes I’ll take the Q”. You have to love those moments….just an example of one of the many things F3 has done for YHC. @Bitcoin, we hope your back on your feet quickly and will look to see you in the gloom very soon.

YHC always cherishes a Q at Devils Ridge. Here’s what was dreamed up yesterday and what went down in the gloom this morning for 13 PAX. 3 PAX (Sherwin, Amphibious and YHC) knocked out a half Murph (plus a few) for EC.

The Thang

Warm up – SSH, arm circles forward and reverse, body weight squats, and close/regular/wide grip merkins.

  1. Run over to the Whitford roundabout by Cameron and find a spot on the walking railing. YHC’s single count (12-15) reverse inverted merkins followed by lunge walk around the cirlce; rinse & repeat except broad jump around circle; rinse & repeat except bunny hop around circle.
  2. Mosey to upper patio on back side of Cameron, bear crawl to stairs, hop of stairs, 10 tuck jumps at the top, sprint back to start; Rinse & Repeat
  3. Mosey to plaza outside front doors of Cameron below The G.O.A.T’s office and find bench. Dips and Derkins on YHC’s single count 20-25 and 15; Rinse & Repeat
  4. Mosey to Kville and partner up – Wheelbarrow 1st half of Kville to far edge of 1st sidewalk, alternate with partner as needed.
  5. Mosey to tennis courts – Merkin Suicides – run to far baseline, perform merkins – backwards run to start. There are 6 courts so the merkin count went as such at each court:
    • 6 = 5 merkins
    • 5 = 10 merkins
    • 4 = 15 merkins
    • 3 = 20 merkins
    • 2 = 25 merkins
    • 1 = 30 merkins
    • Total Merkins = 105

This was a grind especially at the end. AWESOME push by all PAX. These are the types of exercises that show how much stronger you are as a group versus by one’s self. YHC loves this.

Tclaps to Crimson for leading Mary as YHC picked up the 6 coming back from the tennis courts.

COT

Spots are open for the Ragnar Relay in October (10/5 – 10/6). Check the Ragnar channel on Slack.

@Sherwin reported he was exhausted after EC and the ME. Solid work today Sherwin!

Prayers and peace to @Riggs and his entire family as his mother-in-law just passed way.
