YHC prayed us out, thankful for another double digit turn out and asked for strength and fellowship in the coming months. 

MOLESKIN:
Very appreciative to everyone that came out this morning. Workout was supposed to be on the tennis court with motivators in between, but we improvised. Lots of grumble during the inchworm. Ant bite karma on the Merkin Walk. General disgust from pack leaders Aaarrrggghhh and AlrightAlright when YHC called the Merkin Walk when the rest of the PAX was halfway. Rump Roast claimed 7Fs on the scale. YHC was not informed of the beer/claw requirement this morning, which may have been why most of y’all showed up… but beers will be served tomorrow at the harbor!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC prayed us out

MOLESKIN:
With Brooks not showing up on Sunday, YHC decided to go heavy on the running. YHC was originally going to do the Suicide Special, but decided to modify it with coupons and football field. Special Sauce and a few others were curious if we were going to repeat the Bill Murray Caddyshak/Groundhog Day workout, but quickly found that was not the case. Rump was none to pleased and let YHC know it early and often. Overall a solid turnout and YHC was happy to have so many post in the Gloom.

Appreciate the PAX coming out to support #ClubRehab while I continue to nurse the Achilles/calf. Really missed being out there, the 3 weeks w/o F3 is the longest stretch I’ve had in 3 years, and with my only ventures out of the house being to get groceries I really needed the 2nd F of seeing other people!

Will run back a similar workout next Thursday as I takeover SCT one more time to finish up getting ripped for Gulf Shores!

Circle of Trust (CoT):
YHC prayed us out – Zach Tellier paid the ultimate price – 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, N.C.; died Sept. 29 at Firebase Wilderness, Afghanistan, of wounds sustained when insurgents attacked his unit using small-arms fire. Hero’s like him paid so I can make the free choice to be out here in the middle of COVID getting better with my brothers. I feel like somehow these workouts honor men like him and make sure they’re not forgotten.  

Playlist:
No music this morning

Moleskin:
There was some mumble chatter thru the warm-o-rama and thru the mosey to the start. Bleep commented real shortly in that that it had dropped substantially! By the second round the PAX were asking what they had done to deserve this!?!?! We only got to the 4th round but didn’t make it to the 4th block to stack on the 150 LBC’s and moseyed back to the launch. I took a moment to talk about Zach Tellier and what this WOD means to me. HIM’s like Zach Tellier paid the ultimate price so guys like us can be out here in the gloom giving it away. #acceleration #taketheredpill #giveitaway
