On October 29, 2018, 43 year old Senior Chief Petty Officer Chad Wilkinson took his own life, leaving behind a wife and two children. Chad had served in the Navy’s SEAL teams for 21 years and was an novice mountain climber. To support veteran mental health awareness, Chad’s wife Sara founded the Step Up Foundation and sponsors a CrossFit WOD in Chad’s memory every Veteran’s Day: 1000 box steps with a 45 lb ruck. To do our part, the Twin Team Lounge Outreach Committee donated four registration fees to the Step Foundation/Chad1000x and (loosely) followed the WOD this morning. https://chad1000x.com/…

YHC was joined by tough and uncompromising individuals on his Name Day celebration. YHC is a week late on the backblast and in his old age has forgotten a lot of what we did. YHC probably would have forgotten to write the backblast has ‘ol Heisty not sent him a text this afternoon. As far as the workout, YHC recalls that we ran, we laughed, we exercised, we laughed some more with many of the laughs at YHC’s expense and then we stretched. YHC also vividly remembers that there was too much running for Last Call’s liking. Sorry buddy. Thanks…
