    Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS:

    YHC has been taking Wednesdays off as a mid week break but I miss this AO because there are so many different things to do. You really don’t need a full cheat sheet to come up with ways to bring the pain to the beat down. I think I will start making SOT a regular stop again.

    BTTF

    Numbers / Names DTH took us out

    NMS:

    The extroverts of the PAX could not contain their socially distant selves when they saw DTH for the first time in what seems like forever, a hug or two was had and only the names have been changed to protect the guilty. Cooper apparently has no boundaries and will get in your social box whenever he feels like it. YHC knew it would be a fair amount of run today but wanted to explore some new areas of the AO. YHC would also like to cross the street to the old Toys-R-Us parking lot but that adds a good bit of run and less workout to the mix.

  • Sure, why not!!!

    With a slight chill in the air, 9 red hot warriors gathered in the Gloom to form what resembles a PAX at Hoedown. With no Q on the sheet someone suggested that we make it a Doozy Q and YHC was willing to oblige.

    With no plan of attack lets mosey to get us going, on to Bodos place (Bodos was nowhere to be found)

    Mosey to the playground, triple check

    Partner 1 – merkins with feet on the wall (balls to the wall style but not quite a chicken pecker), partner 2 – dips, partner 3 run to the monkey bars 5 pull ups and return (X3)

    Numbers / names Greenbow took us out

    NMS:

    YHC had thoughts of Q’ing every day this week but had not signed up for this morning. When arriving at Hoedown and the opportunity to Q was thrown out there YHC thought it must be divine intervention or at least a happy coincidence, so a Doozy Q it is. Once YHC returned home to sign up for the Q the rest of the week he found that the return of DTH will be at the Forge on Thursday so a full week of Doozy Q’s it will not be but YHC will not miss the Forge and the return of the man, the mith, the legend that is Dr. Try Hard.

    Numbers / Names Pee Dee took us out

    NMS:

    Sad news this morning, it seems that Pee Dee is moving back to the Raleigh NC area. It has been great having Pee Dee’s presence at our AO’s and we are better men for having been able to work out with him for the past few months. YHC speaks on behalf of the RVA PAX in saying that Pee Dee will be greatly missed but we hope to see him from time to time and pray that his house sells fast and without issue.

    Not much to report on.

    YHC did not have plans to take a tour of the AO this morning but with this being a first time at The Forge for Bone Thugs YHC modified the plan and did a quick tour. We did not get to DTH’s favorite starting point and take the light pole ride back up but we can see that next time.

    Number / Names Bone Thugs took us out

    NMS:

    Much to the dismay of Snuff channel 8 was setting up camp right next to the park entrance this morning. There was some mumble chatter between Last Call, Bone Thugs and Snuff about stabbing some tires but I think cooler heads prevailed. With basketball hoops re-installed and yellow tape removed from the pavilion the usual 4 suspects got to see Double-mint (who has been posting more regularly lately) and we where blessed with a Flat Line sighting. YHC looked for chalk last night to write the exercises in the parking lot but found the kids chalk bin to be lacking. Adapt and overcome (I was not a Marine but I probably should have been) papers with the exercises where set out on the field, tacked down with 4″ deck screws and away we went.

  • Last Call Party of 2

    2 what has become regulars came out for a Twin Team showdown. YHC had a plan to take Snuff to the name sake this morning because he has never been there. Unfortunately Snuff fart sacked or went with a different AO so at 5:30 Last Call and YHC headed out and away from Twin Team.

    Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS: As we were in our COT YHC talked about not having gone to Twin Team because Snuff was not present then Last Call reveals that he unknowingly has never been to Twin Team either. Through some discussion Last Call was under the impression that we called it Twin Team because of the ant hill between the ES and HS. No, No, No my friend we will show you Twin Team in all its glory.

    NOTE TO SELF: As you have been told by yourself so many times never change your plan – morning of!!!!!! Name it and Claim it Baby.

  • 4 X 4 X 4(cubed) = ? (where is Tobit)

    4 Healthy Warrior made their way to The Forge this windy morning to try to get in a beatdown before the rain sets in. YHC arrived a touch early as he usually does and not long after Wedding Singer parks his sled in the lot, wanders over to YHC’s car to ask if a mile run was in the plan. YHC has no plan so Singer elected to get some EC on the last day of the challenge and off he went into the gloom. With two other PAX showing up we mosey to the COP in the 3rd lot from the right.

    Numbers / Names YHC took us out

    NMS:

    PAX seemed to really like the merkins four corners, mumble chatter intensified after the 30 hand release merkins something about killing Doozy burying the body or along those lines. YHC believes it was repeated after the Man Killers and on the way up the light poles. YHC has the Q at Twin Team tomorrow and Snuff was inquiring about what that workout was so far be it from YHC to not show Snuff the namesake that is Twin Team tomorrow.
