He is survived by his fiancée, Brittany Dygert; his parents, Grant and Inger; and his canine partner, Denny.

27th Badger of 2024

Leave a comment

16 at for the Clovis.

150 burpee pull-up
10 mile run
Partition as desired. We did 15 burpee-pull-ups and run 1 mile. Rinse and repeat

One of the simplest and hardest workouts. Nobody finished even half of it

– ’s shoulders have to bear the weight of his arms
– left early in protest
– wants to know if anyone’s finished that workout ever
– is crushing it. Keys to success: being a site Q
– we lost only to find him right at name-o-rama (introvert energy)
– didn’t ask if I wanted to carpool
– & batflipped to some Mary a tad early
– is ’s medical consult
– believes retribution will be had at his VQ on Friday
– took the over
– hardest working Gen Zer in the Fort?
– couldn’t be caught (by me at least) on the last mile

Listen, you could rub your overheating body against the ROTC building because the condensation on the outside wall is much cooler than the air temperature. But it still won’t make burpee pull-ups easy, nor will it verify this report better than , , or

But they’d have to check slack to make it happen….

Great work by all Pax. It was extremely hot and humid but they all pushed to get through at least the last round of bear crawl. Leaders were running stadium steps when time was called.

This was a workout created to honor DEA Special Agent Terry Watson. Who was killed in Bogota Colombia June 20, 2013.

Honoring a Hero

Leave a comment

This hero workout is in honor of my friend and classmate Capt. Mark “Pitbull” McDowell. Four took on the challenge and were rewarded with a sunrise for the ages. Here’s what we did:

– Run 1 Mile
– 5 Minute Plank
– 200 Calf Raises
– 300 LBCs
– Run 1 Mile
– 100 Muscle-ups
– 200 Merkins
– 300 Squats

Mark was a 4.25 GPA student, captain of the soccer team, and an all-around great young man. He was the guy you wanted to hate because he was good at everything. But once you got to know him, you learned that he was the type of guy you strived to be. When he graduated high school, he attended the Air Force Academy. Upon graduation in 2005, he completed Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, and Introduction to Fighter Fundamentals at Columbus Air Force Base, Mississippi. Captain McDowell completed the Basic Qualification Course – F-15E in May of 2008 and was assigned to the 336th Fighter Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina.

Mark’s plane went down in Afghanistan. He left behind a wife, loving family, and many friends. As his grandfather said at his service, “He was born to fly and he died doing what he loved.”

If Mark were here today, he would have been the guy crushing the workout from the front with a smile on his face. He would have been the guy to encourage the whole time.

Remember, we GET TO do this. Some others aren’t as blessed.

Officer Aaron Smith Memorial WOD 2024

Leave a comment

As promised we honored a fallen hero at the Honey Badger who was a friend of my brother in law.

Officer Aaron Smith’s life of public service began at the age of 16, when he joined the Mineral Wells Volunteer Fire Department (MWVFD) as a junior firefighter. He began serving the MWVFD “in full capacity” at the age of 18, and also went on to work as an emergency medical technician (EMT) for Roane County Emergency Medical Services, the St. Joseph Ambulance Service, Jackson County Emergency Medical Services, Camden Clark Memorial Hospital, and Med Trust of Myrtle Beach.
Officer Smith later became a South Carolina State trooper before joining the Horry County Police Department as a police officer.
His cousin Caroline Arthur wrote “Anyone who knew Aaron knew his passion for front line service. His many hours of service, lives touched, and lives saved will not go unnoticed.”
Officer Smith died on September 5, 2021 and was laid to rest September 12, 2021.
Officer Smith left behind his wife, Chelsy, as well as his parents, two sisters, and his brother.
