Old Glory Returns to Tradition
All All MECA BackblastsJune 30th, 2016
After YHC was voluntold by @Dingo (who didn’t show up) to Q at Tradition, I decided to bring back an old friend to the Tradition AO. YHC then decided to pre run to the AO, that turned out to be a bad decision, @Mr. Belding thought the same thing.
I arrive early to get the flags out and Old Glory is no where to be found. Everyone blamed everyone else, but @TheFarm came to the rescue. He was on time (shocker) and had the Davis Lake Flag, so we used that one. 14 men made a great decision to show up and YHC gave some instructions and then off we went at 5:30.

Enjoyed it @Griz. It was great to have Old Glory make an appearance back at Tradition. As I told a few of you, I never thought that I would miss the pull up bars but I missed them today. Doing burpees instead definitely took its toll as the morning went on.
Burpees do not equal pull ups. Terrible idea Grizzly! The legs did not get much rest this morning!
With how late I got there (somehow the first stoplight I hit was red for FIVE MINUTES… and just as I was about to turn through it on red a cop pulled up) I was worried about how I would find out what the 3rd station would be. When I went to touch Old Glory after the mile I thought people were doing dips from across the parking lot and with a bush or whatever blocking my view.
Dips would’ve been much nicer. Agh.
@Grizzly, that should also mean I shouldn’t have to run a full mile because my legs are shorter 😉
I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I last did this. I asked @Grizzly if he brought Old Glory back since the 4th is coming up and it makes perfect sense. He said that sounds good but nope!
Lots of faces out there I didn’t recognize but everyone pushed it this morning…good work!
Great to come over and me and @Point Break represent Davis Lake!
@GG- where’s the “list” so we can record that effort in futility?
