Mumblechatter is an evolving entity. Some days it’s ball-busting jokes about the Q’s performance, some days it’s chatting about the big game the night before, some days it’s fond recollections of prior beatdowns. Today, our resident architect and construction ace were both eager to endlessly talk shop despite the exhausting beatdown, but for the uninitiated the conversation seemed questionable. Or perhaps the PAX are just immature and reside in the gutter, and so terms like stud, caulk, back-filling, load-bearing, and skirting are not in anyway questionable. That’s why YHC was going to go with ‘Talk Dirty to Me’ as the backblast title, but then thought better of it. Because we are mature, intelligent, responsible men (or not). On to the details …

THE THANG

The basic premise here was continuous movement along the traffic circle (which was approximated to be 1/5 of a mile). Laps included traveling side shuffle hops, run, bear crawl, crawl bear, bernie sanders, walking lunge, reverse lunge, squat jump, crab walk, and even some traveling 10 counts. Ran out of time so the traveling burpee lap was nixed, but there was time for a ring of fire merkin escalator for Mary.

COT

  • Lots of announcements, even an announcement before the announcement. There’s a 2nd F in BC thus Thursday evening, and lots of other good stuff in the works.
  • BOM: After missing three weeks of F3, YHC struggled getting back into the routine – fartsacking on Monday, and peeling himself out of bed this morning. The takeaway is to stay in the routine when you can, but also appreciate how hard it can be to start or return – something to keep in mind with respect to fellow PAX who need an extra push to get to the gloom.
