The Sheldon Cooper

I picked up the substitute Q stick from <@UN6PTD007> as he’s DR this week and he picked up one of mine from a few weeks ago.

WARMUP: Mosey over to the track. The obligatory SSH, Morrocan nightclubs, windmills

THE THANG: The Sheldon Cooper. 10 rounds of descending reps. Run a lap around the track, perform 10 burpees, 10 squats, 10 merkins and 10 big boys. Continue this pattern and decrease your rep count by one after each lap.

This was intentionally chosen so that each pax could push themselves as hard as they could, regardless of the pax around them. This provided some good fellowship for a few and the ability to go hard for others.

MARY: Planks and Peter Parkers

ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2D, Jaeger, Convergence. Read the Newsletter

COT: Prayers for new job opportunities, health, and healing.

I think you’ll be okay, they’re covered in a thin candy shell

The THANG:

Holy schnikes, we had 18 PAX for a Tommy Boy quote run. We ran Massey, to Harris, to Audrey, to Main in a loop with Derkins, Dips, Clave Raises, CDDs, V-Ups, and Big Boys. We had runners and ruckers.

COT:

On the heavier side, HIMs shared prayers that are really rocking their personal lives and I thank you for sharing. The COT is what makes us unique and allows those hard conversations to happen. This community has your back. Thanks for showing up today to get better. Thanks for letting me lead these men into Thursday.

NMM
Who knew five minutes of Moroccan Night Clubs could wreck you? Today’s beatdown proved you don’t have to run far to get a good workout. Thanks for the opportunity <@U790WHUKC> and happy birthday <@U6AS1MBPG>. And great to catch up with our Ruckers at the end.

Remember to celebrate your wins louder than you mourn your losses. Progress deserves more energy than regret. Should’ve, would’ve, and could’ve steal too much joy. The windshield is larger than the rearview mirror for a reason.

Aye!
