When YHC arrived at NoToll this am and having the Merkin Challenge Month in the rearview mirror, YHC thought about how to pound out a few more merkins; realizing that Christmas Trees usually need a ladder, the Merkin Ladder was needed to help put up a tree.

KUDOS to South Cream, It was his second time out and he plowed through the entire set, Swirly did run back to check on his as he appeared to be face down in a puddle.

TYA arrived a few seconds late, but to even it out his Bass Pro Fishing Rain gear was a few decades early, circa 1972. He was quoted in saying that this was the hardest post ever!

No announcements, however, it’s my understanding that Johnsonville is putting together a form of challenge that includes Burpees… are you kidding me Burpees really?!….. Burpees Seriously Burpees!!!!!!!!!!! sign up on the Spreadsheet Jville is putting together.

    South Cream, Salad cream, whatever. Great beatdown on a truly crappy weather day! Glad I posted.

    Yes burpees and it sucks. But I’m getting a lot of laughter from Wilson’s wife on my form.

    I was cold for about a minute, then I got better. Truly torture on the arms! Nice work, Bleeder.

    Thanks for the fun Bleeder. Rain workouts can be fun. Rain and cold workouts just aren’t.

    Re this challenge, I think you guys doing it should write an apology letter to your shoulders right now. In a month you can open it and remember the good old days (30 days ago) when they used to work.
