Date: 04/22/2024
PAX: @Sassy, @huckleberry, @Greenspan, @Bevo, @Burns, @Zima, @Schlitz, @Palin, @Tonka, @Wooly Bugger, @Rubber Ducky, @Chubz (WB), @Drip (WD), @van.gogh (WIC)
Somehow the 4th iteration of the 22 challenge had even more PAX than the previous. Clearly the PAX love their WWIIs and knew it was a safe bet to get in a lot this morning… What they didn’t expect was the barrage of sore bones they would have from rolling on asphalt, and 30 minutes of Bear Crawl/Crawl Bear in between. Oops!

- YHC Took us out giving thanks for the morning, for F3, and to made into better men / fathers/husbands/sons/brothers/coworkers/friends.
NMM
- 1.5 miles covered, about a mile of which was on all fours.
- All PAX declared soreness the next day. This was not exclusive to sore muscle, but also bruises and sore bones.
- Indeed the shoulders were destroyed, and the core was too.
- Huck had no tail bone left and was made that we didn’t do burpees until he left.
- PAX were given the option of doing 22 burpees as a substitute exercise and it was considered by many.
- Zima doubted YHCs counting skills at first, but then believed in them after he eventually caught up when the Q-drenaline wore off.
- Once again Wooly Booger kept up the pace the whole time.
- EC runners are beginning to second guess EC running before the 22 challenges
- Greenspan thought he could get away with lying down during the beatdown, until YHC came over to join them.
- Bevo, who was down with Greenspan, kept the banter light hearted and supportive, while wisely tending to potential back issues from stirring up (unlike YHC who is too stubborn to Omaha sometimes).
- Despite calling out YHCs love for 22s, and attempting to steal 22 Qs in the past, Burns still showed up and did the thing. I think he did it on purpose too! TClaps for paying attention, running EC, and still destroying the beatdown!
- Drip was a sense of calm amongst the chaos of the beatdown. All PAX working out near him experienced 20% less stress, and 15% better form. Drip drip drip, indeed!
- Great to see Chubz out at the Throne, dude needs to Q again soon!
- Not sure who is younger, taller, and more handsome, Tonka or Chubz. I think the F3 Calendar is accepting applications studs.
- YHC was smack right between Schlitz, Palin, Zima and Rubber Ducky, so the MC was off the charts. None of it should be repeated for reading online though. Gotta be there!
- Next opportunity is 5/22 at Conspiracy for YHCs post 40th birthday Q!!!
Until next time,
VG
