When pondering how to “If you build it, they will come” for today’s workout, Phil Collins started playing on the radio. As quickly (and frantically) as I changed the radio station it hit me like a ton of bricks – a tribute to @Tuco! Yes, that’s what I’ll do. Thank you, Phil. And thank you second cup of coffee. So the Tweet was sent, and the plan started to formulate. Will I actually play a Phil Collins station for 45 minutes?!? Nope. But PAX will show up just to see if i will. #Winning

The second aspect that was in the forefront of my thinking was that I was filling in for @Zuck. What would @Zuck do?  He’d keep things moving. Done. I’ve got this.

The flag was planted, the music started (Classic Rock Power Workout station compliments of Pandora – the non-commercial Pandora that @Tuco does not subscribe to), and the PAX started rolling in. Some #Kotters were issued to @Cousin Roy, @Skillet, and @Peta. Good to see those guys back at #B&W.

CoT:  Prayers for those on the east coast affected by #Florence. All PAX please see the opportunities to help with recovery efforts through F3Carterico, F3ENC, and F3CapeFear on the Twitter. There are gofundme pages to donate, but there will also be opportunity to physically show up and put in some sweat equity.

Prayers to @Boomerang’s sister, Susan, who now has some additional lung complications that will effect her chemo.

*There were other prayer requests that will remain in the CoT*

NMM:

• The PAX were let down that Phil was not going to be the music selection of choice this AM. We still miss you, though, @Tuco.
• @BAM had his #Mumblechatter A-Game this morning. Lucky me that he was directly behind me and seemed to be two inches from my ear. But then again, what’s a workout with @BAM if there’s no #MC?
• I didn’t see it, but apparently @Fingers can River Dance. #NoBodyMovement #AllAboutTheFeet
• If the PAX were doing it right, #TheBenjamin should have been covered today.
• Yes, I let @Zuck “off the hook” by substi-Qing today. But c’mon, the dude is training for a marathon and we all know he’s going to crush it. He’ll be back to B&W when it’s over. But I used his “don’t touch the lines” with the hop-over variations, and we kept things moving with little rest. Hence, it was Zuck-ish style.
• @Boomerang’s M’s name is also Susan. #Trivia

Strong work this AM, men. Enjoyed it as always.
