Tuesday at the Trailhead is proving to be mathematically difficult on this QIC. The last 2 weeks have produced double digit numbers and this Gloom proved to be no different. I arrived to the AO with 6-7 PAX standing around mumble chattering. Quickly the PAX awoke to 11 men including 2 FNGs ready to accept the challenge the QIC intended to deliver. But wait it’s a bird, it’s a plane nah it’s just Chewy coming through the darkness.. Total of 12 now. Now that was easy.. The Q was attentive to some of the chatter about Merkins (Turtle) so he felt the need to store that info in his memory bank for the beatdown.. Lets begin.

Moseyed to the Trailhead, wait the AO is the Trailhead🤔 ment to say the Tunnel of glow on the Trace. Upon arrival the instructions were to split into 2 teams of 6 (math skills) with the first man starting a series of Merkins (incline/decline) at the top for 20 at the start of the glow 20 at the end of the glow 20 and at the top of the other side for 20 again. (Total 80) Yes! The PAX hanging back awaiting there turn once the first man completed his first set was required to hold the Al gore while waiting and upon the first man completing on the other side had to hold plank and await the rest of the PAX. Seemed like a nice R/R excersise but first let’s reverse the order of the teams and changed the staging workout to Mission Impossible hold (nice job Bushwacker I saw you killing this one brother 👍💪) on the start and finish.. The QIC and an FNG (to be continued) began the 2nd round. Once complete the PAX moseyed back to the official Trailhead to another team excersise which consisted of 8 man body builders building to 10 starting at one end moseying to the steps and up (1 top, 2 bottom, 3top 4 bottom) team Ocho,Turtle, Song Bird (FNG), Carpool, Dundee decided to put in some extra work.. Nice job fellas. (Something about not hearing instructions). Completed the task and circled up to count off and here is where the QIC takes blame in not realizing he had 2 men unaccounted for, Dundee and Carpool who were going the extra mile and completing the mission was still at the top once the count began. My mistake gentleman, so we recounted off while Turtle gave a card to a future FNG who jumped in the mix for some work at the end..
