Post Golf Trip Memories

After reviewing previous backblasts, YHC noticed that the last time I submitted a backblast for the Armory was in October 2019 immediately following a golf trip where I likely ate and drank too much. It so happens that this was the exact scenario for today’s beatdown. After a long weekend in HHI, YHC was ready to make a downpainment on the day and happy to see some friendly faces in the Pax

It Pays to be a 1

It was a relatively warm morning at Minnow pond where 17 strong PAX met to get some miles..but only limited smiles.

Ran straight to WEP in front of the stage.

The workout:

Start with 10 Burpees

Run to the first swing along the paved path do 10 merkins and 10 lbcs

Run back to the stage do 9 burpees

Run to the 2nd swing on the path do 10 merkins and 10 Lbcs

Run back to the stage and do 8 burpees

Keep going along the path as far as you can until time.

It was here that YHC made the decision to split the pax up into 1’s and 2’s.

I was thinking I just wanted to create some space on the path….unfortunately…what happened was the 2’s were given the opportunity to run up the WEP hill pretty much the entire time.

Despite the complaints the PAX handled it extremely well.

At 5:55 we headed back to COT and got there just in time for 10 more merkins 10 more LBCs and 1 last burpee.

Thanks to Nasa for the opportunity. It was great getting out amongst the PAX this morning.

Until Next Time….

It PAYS TO BE A 1!
