Twas a full (or at least nearly full) moon this morning and the air was crisp @ #Mayhem, where a baker’s dozen (e.g. 13 for the non-cultured folk) got after it in a “Zuck’s Return” Q.
A little history: The first time YHC Q’d @ #Mayhem was (I believe) July 23rd 2014. The last time YHC had Q’d @ #Mayhem was in June 27, 2018 – ironically the same day that now Site Q, @Turnover, showed up as a li’l ol’ FNG – totally ghosted by @TotalRecall – who had EH’d him and then didn’t show up. That was my 11th time Q’ing a #Mayhem workout. I can’t believe it had been over 3 years since my last #Mayhem Q – such a great AO (even better now) and awesome pax!!! I’ve now recorded my 12th #Mayhem Q!
When @Turnover asked if I would Q – I gladly obliged. Granted, I almost forgot until 1-2 days prior, but I didn’t and here is what we did…

COT
- No specific prayer callouts/requests, but thanks given to Him for many things – including the pax, and for being in control and for handling all the ‘stuff’ that we think we can handle on our own – but really can’t.
NMM
- Big thanks to @Turnover for handing me the keys this morning. Truly an honor to be in the gloom with and leading such amazing men.
- Great to be back at the #Mayhem AO and see faces that I don’t see as much as I’d like. Everyone was getting after it – hard!
- YHC smoked himself by the end. By the end of ‘Bench Work’ I was done-zo.
- I had reached out to @Turnover to make sure there weren’t any new ‘unwritten’ AO rules and got the greenlight to do ‘whatever’. Clearly running through the grass was on the list be he forgot to tell me.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
- @Turnover looking to “turn over” the #Mayhem site Q role to some other lucky pax. Interested?! See @Turnover.
