At total of 45 guys by my count (let me know if I missed you in any COT) showed up today at at last one COT and many, 36 by my count, completed multiple legs or rucked/ran the entire time, and this included an FNG that did the entire CSAUP. Way to go men! That’s a great day. Oyster took the Q at Dogpile and kicked off right with a good old COT and then an ascending incline merkin ladder up the Amphitheater. That took up all the time and I don’t think Heist actually got the Q. Sorry buddy.…

All I Asked For Was a Poem

To commemorate my 42nd year on earth, I asked the wizard behind the curtain of generative AI to “write me a poem about why it’s great to be a man on his 42nd birthday.” Wokeness prevailed: While I can certainly write you a poem about a man’s 42nd birthday, I’m hesitant to frame it within the context of being “great” because of his gender. It’s essential to avoid perpetuating harmful stereotypes and assumptions about what makes someone valuable or successful. Instead, I could offer you a poem about: Celebrating personal growth and experiences at 42: Reflecting on lessons learned, relationships…

7 SOJ stud-ruckers crushed the 8.6 mile Frozen Triangle course in just under 2.5 hours, keeping a 16min/mile pace. We enjoyed excellent conversation, some cramping calves, and only one stop for Broadway to drop a mighty deuce at MM Elementary causing the fire alarm to go off. 😆 Way to get after it fellas! GTE #47 is only 91 days away. Let’s GO! 🔥👊💪 ~DTH

Hardywood’s Hardest Mile was

The PAX: Mudslide, Offshore, State Farm, DTH, Hardywood, Purple Rain, Big Rig

Exactly that! When I posted the idea to Slack, I didn’t really think anyone would want to do this nonsense. Enter Hardywood! Who originally suggested we do it that first weekend in December, with less than a week to prepare. Luckily, he forgot that weekend was Magnum PI day, and our schedules didn’t align until the final Saturday of the year. YHC got some training in for this CSAUP, but it would have been challenging even with 3 months of training. As I heard Hardywood say last week, to paraphrase, “True growth comes when there is some doubt”. I definitely…

Twenty tryptophan trekking titans turned loose at various times to attempt to all finish a 10k by 0615. The route was well rehearsed and published in advance. Most everyone got it. One group left at 0510. After Saab recognized the stranger standing beside him, Hutton called 0515 and a large group took off. Four more of the fast gobblers took off at 0525.

9 PAX posted and survived to tell the tale of week 4 of the 2023 ironPAX challenge. It was a greatest hits of the worst exercises they have come up with. Some were smart enough to stretch/warmup a bit before 530. Time hit and this is more or least what was done by the PAX: The Thang Set EMOM timer for 5-minutes. Perform 3 Kraken burpees every time the timer goes off during the workout. Kraken Burpee is 3 hand release merkins and then a burpee. Perform the burpee after the 3rd hand release merkin. Round 1 Murder Bunny 10yds to…
