16 SOJ STUDS answered the call and wrapped their arms around Pain and Chaos this morning, the two 14’ telephone pole-size logs that took center stage at GTE#47. Some brothers knew what to expect, others came to learn what a ruck + log weight feels like. The broad grins said it all. These heroes carried the logs to and from the PIT around the entire perimeter of Rockwood’s loop road (about 1.2mi in 32min), with Team Chaos taking the lead and stopping periodically to complete log curls and overhead presses. With 8 PAX per team and 5 PAX under each log, there were 3 PAX pre team in constant rotation. This worked well.
After depositing the logs back in the PIT, the six smaller logs (7-8’) were carried out the a grassy area for a Triple Check. A small band of Brogites (Mudslide, Wet Bandit, Melville, and HP) split off at this interval. With four teams on deck, the Triple Check consisted of P1 squatting while holding the end of a log, P2 completed Flutters, and P3 ran about 50 yards and back to switch.
COT:
- Counterama # 16

#SOJ – !!WHUA WHUA!!
NMS: This was a SOLID band of brothers for some heavy lifting today, and none finer than the SOJ PAX to show up and put out! Pain & Chaos did not disappoint. Hardywood already has his eye on a Texas GTE in November! None of us knows what tomorrow will bring, but we are better prepared for whatever comes because we have pushed past what thought ourselves capable of. Let’s GO!!! Yours AYE, DTH
