Nugget of wisdom
“The parts of a man that are able to show up when he is unconcerned with how qualified he is are the parts that we need the most”
First Q since spring of 25’, just like riding a bike although there may have been some rust on the chain and the tires could have been inflated. Always a pleasure to Q at a site that has meant so much to me over the years.
Had the pleasure of good meaningful discussion alongside some pain and encouragement from the HIM in attendance.
Thankful for the nod from <@U01NGHPR2HW>
WARMUP: NONE
THE THANG:
19 men took off at quickly for No Mercy Monday. After a quick mosey to South State Bank, we fired up the legs with 5 Bonnie Blairs to get loose.
From there, we charged down Dave Gibson Blvd to the bottom under the light pole — 5 Jump Squats at the base — then sprinted back up that glorious hill of pain. At the top, we pushed toward the school where, under the next light post, we knocked out 5 Apollo Onos before turning around and heading back for more.
Rinse and repeat. Several rounds. Just under 5 miles of pure burn, grind, and grit.
Bones and Farmers Only quietly crushed it, while Sasquatch somehow wasn’t even breaking a sweat while he led the pack and completed each excercise with amazing form.
Legs smoked. Lungs torched. Mission accomplished.

NMM
The distance between your dreams and your reality is discipline. You have to do the thing, especially when you don’t feel like it. 80% of success is showing up. The rest is willingness to work and learn. Put in the work and reap the rewards.
