– Everyone likes running with Cinderblocks
– That is a lie.
– Fresh Prince came for his second post today. He did not break, so we presume he will be back.
– @peanutbutter was a no-show. I cried a little.
– Olaf and Johnny Utah almost kept up with Maximus and YHC, but we had a second block advantage. Basically it means they were CRUSHING it.
– Trucker only complained a little.

THE THANG:
This workout was developed as a remembrance of the Columbine High School shooting victims from 23 years ago (4/20/1999). I was a freshman in high school about 40 minutes from Columbine and had friends there that day that were thankfully not physically injured.
Everyone grabbed a cindy…
Buy-in: 21 merkins. One for each wounded victim that survived that day.
Main Event:
To honor the 13 victims that died that day (12 students and 1 teacher) we did 13s.
13s – bent over rows with the cindy at the ROTC building, 8 count body builders at lower stop sign (start with 1 row and 12 body builders, increment one row and decrease one body builder each round, end with 12 rows and 1 body builder)
Before each round the name and age of one of the killed victims was announced.
SSH were completed at the end of each round until the 6 was in.
this brought us to 05:56
Finished off the workout with 25 chest presses with cindy (IC) and then 10 OH press with cindy (IC)
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Although tragedies continue to happen seemingly endlessly – raising kind, caring kids and being leaders in our community can make an impact on those around us. This impact can reduce or mitigate the impacts of the mental health issues that lead to some of these tradgedies. Keep up the great work and hopefully we never have to deal with anything close to what happened this day 23 years ago.
AKA continues tomorrow at Minnow Pond, Blood Drive May 12
COT: prayers for mental health, our kids, Ukraine
