28 Men decided to start their day of right and post to YHC’s VQ on a very pleasant morning at The Highlands. This is how it went down.

Burpee Challenge – first pair do 3 burpees, when done next pair goes, racing down the line, last guys do 6 and the race goes back up the line to the beginning. YHC was expecting more chatter and cheering during this exercise, but I guess everyone was so worn out from the rest of the workout (or it was a huge flop of an idea. I will go with the former though, really tired)

- Good work today everyone!
- Thank you for allowing me to lead you men today! It was fun, nerve racking and will be better next time. If you haven’t Q’s before, I recommend giving it a try.
- Thanks to @JRR Tolkien for coming up from Area 51 for the post. He got me into this whole F3 thing.
- Thanks to @Alcatraz from helping me out this morning.

Nice work @AstroVan to step up and Q! Lots of variety and plenty of discomfort. When I grow 6 more legs, I assume the crab walk will be easier.
Good lead @Astro Van. Thanks for the Q. Next time bring a slower partner with you though. I think @Tolkien was about eight levels ahead of me today. I’m still trying to figure out how he did those reverse burpees.
Shout out to @Nanny who skipped today’s workout but showed up to vote in a sweaty F3 t-shirt. I’m guessing he was off doing some “advanced training” thing on his own.
Great job everyone. Thanks for enduring my first Q. I will get the routine/cadence thing down eventually. @Alcatraz, glad I could make you uncomfortable. @Disaster, yes @JRRTolkien is a quick one.
Good Q today AstroVan! There were a few exercises that I had not attempted before mixed in.
Great job Astrovan, and thanks for having me MECA crew. You guys have a sweet AO and nice large group of guys. You are welcome at SOB/A51 anytime. And Em brace the reverse burpee!
