CoT

  • @Screech’s M is due to have a baby any day now! Their second. #TClaps!
  • Today is Earth Day!
  • YHC took us out lifting up brother #TootCanal, and giving thanks. YHC also should have lifted up @Screech’s M and prayed that her pregnancy goes well! #Cobains

 

NMM

  • We were all sad that the man of the hour wasn’t there to join us this morning, but @Thistle did give a fair warning he was traveling yesterday.
  • YHC even had the Beatles Birthday song queues up, but put it away since he wasn’t there.
  • Many PAX wondered how Monkey Humpers were a break from the hill running… good question?
  • 59 burpees split up didn’t seem that bad though, right?
  • YHC will likely never again call for a Merkins only DORA. It was all in honor of @RootCanal who we all know loves his Merkins! #SoundedGoodOnPaper
  • Let the record show that YHC had no partner… it could have been you, @RootCanal! Maybe next year!
  • @Palin requested some abs for a recovery, which YHC happily Omaha’d and added between each set. good call!
  • Some PAX requested inverted / Upside down merkins; aka lying on your back and lifting your arms in the air haha. Request denied!
  • @Focker as @Chisel put in an extra lap at the end to keep busy while other PAX finished up. #TClaps
  • PAX really loved the call for the #Thistle during Mary.
  • Made for 305 merkins total each, 59 burpees, and ~1.75 miles.

 

Happy Birthday, #RootCanal! Thanks for your leadership in the Dash and for your positive influence on me and all the PAX. I hope to be like you one day when I grow up. Thanks for the keys @Huckleberry, I appreciate the opportunity to lead these fine men this morning!
