Lutefisk was put on the IR this week and YHC felt called to respond to his call for a substitute Q at Golden Corral. Disclaimers were delivered to a crowd of 14 HIMs – Gekko took a 5-mile ish mosey in preparation for this weekend’s long training run (aka P200). The remaining PAX moseyed off for a March Madness themed workout with many reps.
COT – all I/C (note the counts and their march madness like numbers)
Moroccan Night clubs x Sweet 16
Arm circles forward and backward x Sweet 16
SSH x 32 (just because…..)
Windmills x Sweet 16
Mountain Climbers X Sweet 16
Merkins D/C X Elite 8
Honeymooners, planks, salutations to the right and left with a few 6-inch holds dome for 10 counts of varying length

Prayers: One year to the week of Badger’s diagnosis and 10 months this Thursday since he went to be with Sky Q. Lift up his M and 2.0’s
It is an honor to be a part of such a terrific group of HIMs who are committed to accelerating. I was glad to come out of the bullpen for this Q. And to those considering stepping up to Q for the first time (or not), to steal a phrase from Nike – just do it. In the COT, thanks was given for our group of F3. Our ability to push one another past our comfort zones and get comfortable with discomfort is a privilege that should be treated as a blessing – let’s accept it as such and see it for the springboard of growth it is meant to serve.
