The NOT SO Sweaty Barry

If I missed your name, feel free to edit it in….

The weather did not agree with us, but I hope everyone had a nice evening at The Barry (aka The Sweaty Barry). I’m really not sure how a person could not have a good time with Milwaukee’s Beast and PBR being served.

Winner (repeat), Harry Carry … new traveling trophy awarded

Ruck winner (repeat), 3D … we’ll rustle up an award for the ruck winner next year

Thanks to the volunteers.

Thanks to the Rock Hill participants.

Thanks to Twister for gracing us with his presence.

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow

Arms & Legs So Bad It Still Hurts

<@UST30T7FF> and <@U01JUGK82TY> were Co-Q’s for the day. We decided to split it up by muscle groups. Ruby started first with arms and then Splinter took over with legs.
WARMUP: Warmup-y things.
THE THANG: Ruby’s 1/2:
Mosey to the playground for a all arms DORA. MOT is bear crawl 20 yards out and crawl bear 20 yards back to the playground, Exercises & Reps: At the swing set put your feet in the swing to get into a position to perform derkins, bring your knees to your chest while in plank position and then extend, then complete 1 derkin, that is 1 rep, partners complete 50reps, then 75 reps of a Merkin/ParkerPeter combo exercise, and then 100 reps of a WideArmMerkin/ShoulderTaps combo exercise. ARMS WERE BE SMOKED!!!
Splinter’s 1/2:
Indian Run 1 lap around WEP. Unfortunatly, becase Ruby killed us in the 1st half, we lost 60% of the PAX on the lap. Then we regrouped for some step-ups on the park benches, some calf raises then ran over to the hill. We lined up and raced up the hill not knowing what was going to be required of the winner and losers. Since there were 10 of us (to start) 1st Place did 1 more run up the hill and 100 squats, 2nd place 2 more runs up the hill and 90 squats, and so on. Second go round was 1st Place, 1 run up the hill and 100 lunges, 2nd place 2 more runs up the hill and 90 lunges and so on.
<@U035XDY7ABC> started talking to a guy at the top of the hill. He ended up EH’ing him on the spot to finish the last set and Mary. Welcome The Apostle.
MARY: 4 minutes of Mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS: The Sweaty Barry, Blood drive, Read Your Newsletter
COT: Welcome The Apostle

NMM
When we’re young, our heroes wear capes. As we age, our new heroes wear flaws, scars, and wisdom. They quietly show up, do the work, and expect no applause. Growing up isn’t about losing heroes, it’s about finding real ones.

You men are my heroes. You each have special gifts that I admire. You may not see it, but we do. Spending time in the Gloom with you men makes me better. Thank you.
