COVID-19

QIC: Van Gogh

Date: 03/12/2020

PAX: Foghorn (WB), Crash Test Dummy, Turnover, Zima, Lazy Boy, Palin, $5 Footlong, TPS, Boomerang, Rustbucket (WD), Van Gogh (QIC)

 

With COVID-19 running rampant, and being all over the news, YHC couldn’t get it out of his head and had to form a beatdown around it. Some PAX thought it might be in poor taste since people are dying from this disease, and perhaps they are right….. but maybe this will help spread awareness to those PAX who have turned off all news in the past few weeks? Yeah, let’s go with that.

NMM

  • Let it be known that Zima and Turnover dragged YHC around the 4 mile EC loop… #TClaps
  • This turned out to be a simple yet effective Beatdown. High reps for a few exercises… YHCs favorite, and definitely what the PAX like too based on the MC!
  • Palin’s wife woke him up at 0515 to change Mark’s diaper and he still somehow showed up at 0534 to join us. Not sure if he actually changed the diaper or just bolted out of bed to TRQ??
  • Great to meet Foghorn, whose name I have heard a few times around the Gloom. YHC can confirm the rumors are true: he is a beast!
  • Crash Test Dummy is getting off on the right foot after the Convergence by breaking Zima’s Curse. Zima informed the PAX that NO FNG’s had returned from one of his beatdowns since Burns ~2 years ago. Crash Test Dummy also posted at Parliament. #TClaps for keeping at it CTD! Bonus, Zima can start inviting friends back out to F3 now!It was absolutely fantastic seeing Rustbucket back out in the gloom again after the Convergence. He was doing right by his knee, no running, modifying as necessary. June will be here soon my friend!
  • Turnover’s alternate F3 name may have to be “Reach Around”… you had to be there… but let’s just say it was a spin off conversation from Zima ONCE AGAIN recapping how YHC said I felt the Alabama Prom Dates in my butt (as that is the targeted muscle, obviously). Hilarity ensued, PAX were falling over during their lunge walks with laughter, and there was Boomerang shaking his head and left speechless by the conversation. 
  • Full Upright Position is getting stronger every day, I think he needs to Q more. 
  • Seeing Lazy Boy two days in a row was a first, YHC feels like there is always a few days gap in between there! Maybe he’s started posting more to avoid COVID-19?? Oh the irony…
  • Zima really enjoyed the crabwalk. I think he enjoyed all of the traveling really… at one point during Bearcrawls he declared he is better than YHC at WWIIs and nothing else. YHC respectfully disagrees, as Zima is a constant source of motivation at F3 and our gym workouts at Wake.
  • TPS bolted before CoT, but it was great to hear all is well with him, and see him out in the gloom.
  • $5 Footlong is getting through his foot injury, modifying as necessary and being smart (like with the SSH). YHC is glad he’s hanging in there and still coming out. He’s a leader out there in the gloom, through and through, and a great guy to hang out with. 

 

#Cobains for the delayed BB, but I highly enjoyed Thursday morning. The 2ndF was the highlight of YHCs day while working from home for a trial COVID-19 action plan at work. Oh the irony, yet again! Thanks for the honor to lead, Boomerang, you are a great Site-Q – I left the keys at the Pop-up tent outside of Forsyth for you to pick up! Seriously though, be smart and stay healthy men!
