Today was an anniversary of sorts for YHC.  It was one year ago tomorrow that I Qed my first workout.  It is the 50th time I have Qed this year, which was the inspiration for the workout.  You’d think I would be better at it by now.  In Freed to Lead Dredd said he got good at leading PT after about 10,000 times, so only 99,950 to go.

This one seems to have been an all-time low.  As I pulled up to see several normal looking men gathered around the shovel flag, YHC began to think the costume I was wearing was a very bad idea.  It doesn’t appear that F3 is something that you should wear a costume to, even if it is Halloween and even if you are in New Orleans.  Well, it is far from my first bad idea, and is certainly not my last.

#T-claps to Side Effects for stepping up and translating the disclaimer for the PAX since my celebrity impersonation was only good in that it was unintelligible.

Moleskin

A lot of #mumblechatter going on this morning in addition to my impersonation.  YHC’s verbal description of an IW, elicited lots of comments and laughter.  Not sure exactly what I said, but it didn’t make sense and it made Vader Jingle.  A few of the other  quotes included “This is still the warm-up?” “50 burpees sounds like a great way to warm-up,” “I just want to know WHY,” “You’re an a$$hole.” “You should have spent more time on the workout and less on the costume,” “Very original” (as we did low slow dips for the third time), “I can’t wait to get off of this crazy train,” “which would you rather have Crabs or Bunions?”

Shout out

Prayers go out friends and family facing cancer, Goose’s son’s upcoming surgery, Honeybees Mom’s tinnitus, and a successful Down Syndrome Walk.

Great turnout today.  Let’s keep the momentum going, keep taking advantage of the opportunities before us, and make something great.
