Having peered into week 1 and week 2 of #brutha backblasts- I needed to see what I was dealing with. This AO aint for the faint of heart. I remember my first time…at #Mutha.. and being completely blown away- destroyed even. And I couldnt get enough. The thing to be conquered is not necessarily the exercises- its the structure. And she will thrash you and lash you… and always be there. First off- I was feeling pretty froggy and clocked a 7 min mile to the ‘ship. Gonna attribute that to the mythical Qdrenaline. @MaryLou was just behind me. It wasnt long before the King Trophy was surrendered to @MaryLou and @Aquaman once we boarded the structure. We all saw their backs for the remainder of the morning (fronts on the ramps). Goal was an ambitious 4 laps. ML and AM came close- level 4 on 4th lap. I have no doubt that it can be done. Feedback from the breathless faithful confirmed it was a proper beatdown and one that will prove to be nap inducing.
A few observations-
- I neither disclaimed nor counted # of PAX prior to launch. #Cobains.
- I thought we #BillyZane’d a guy while running to the ship. Thought that was a helluva way to introduce ourselves. Turnt out to be #Olaf. Aye, brother- glad you made it
- 5 miles covered today. Everyone had the 2 they ran (out and back) plus whatever they did at ‘ship-
- Lot of folks must love working LPL. They come in EARLY there. Apparently the humble symbol on our chest doesn’t outweigh the potential fear of a pre dawn group of men running around the parking deck by early workers parking in the garage. #PaulBlart said we are Persona Non Grata. I take this to mean until further notice? Think we have some Pax trying to grease the doorman. Stay tuned. Until then, no entre.

Thats all I have- off to snooze.

3 merkin burpees are called “Kraken” burpees over in LKW Jekyll!
Good news. The Garage Personnel position or #RentACop has a high rate of turnover. My guess is that dude will have a new gig next week and you can keep doing what you’re doing. Early days of Muthaship someone would typically run us off. It would always happen late in our hour. We’d ignore them and finish what we were doing and head out.
Following week, well, we just kept showing up. After a while they left us alone or simply stopped keeping an unarmed guard at the parking garage.
I’m with Fishwrap.
