I love the Urban Assault AO, it’s the best view in town at 0530 in the morning. Qing forces me to do a better job of posting… and rather than the usual coal pit, I thought we’d head down to my next favorite spot: Long Branch Trail!

- Prayers for Caroline and Tom Brown
- Prayers for Lambchops uncle and Muttons brother in law who has been battling cancer and recently had multiple organ failure
- Lambchop find out if his 2.0 is going to be a Boy or Girl today!
- Transcript is the new 3rdF Q! He’s looking to invigorate GAS groups and Shield Lock, s well as a potential 3rdF AO
- YHC took us out.

- What a great group! About 2.5 miles covered in total.
- The cable work is just different. Lots of stabilizer muscles firing. Had to Omah p a what was inclined mountain climbers to Shoulder Taps. Balancing the bottoms of the feet on the table was a true core burner and will be used again!
- Transcript was booking it! And then later said he was in hell. Maybe running faster makes the workout go by faster?
- Lambchop had lots of love for IPC week 0.
- Cheesesteak was doing what he does best: modifying things to make them more difficult!
- Chowdah has been killing it lately, he’s definitely ready to Q!
- Great chatting with Chowdah and Spicoli on the moseys.
- The idea behind AMRAP was to just encourage more 2ndF… one of my least favorite parts of DORA is you just spend the whole time talking. Mission Accomplished, I heard lots of good discussion!
- Ziggy was killing it, and I enjoyed sharing some rep conversations with him.
- Our generous Site-Q seemed glad I didn’t make is bear crawl the entirety of the trail… happy to oblige!
Until next time,
VG
