6 pax posted for what they thought was gonna be a Swiss Miss led beatdown. Instead they had to deal with another Chum lead sweat-fest under the starry gloom.

YHC has gotta give TCLAPS to Witch Doctor for filling this Rx with lots of inspiration – Go Meathead!

The fact that Swiss Miss was the original Q for this workout was not missed by the pax. In fact YHC and the pax mentioned his name and previous Q’s many times. SM, if you are reading this, were your ears burning? You were missed, but we paid the price for your illness, dearly.

YHC showed up to a clear and haze-less starry sky, but that didn’t last long. By the time the Q had finished the WARMUP, the heat and humidity being produced by these metal beast was enough to cover the gloom in a sweaty haze. Pleiades or not, the only stars that were seen for the next 40 minutes were the ones spinning around our eyes. YHC warned the new blood that the bike he rode in might not be able to carry back his new swole self. TCLAPS to H&S for trekking it in.

FYI – High Chair is in the business of selling adaptive machines to help the pax navigate their worldly lives when they cannot do so themselves after heavy bell work on Fridays.

All Glory to God! Thanks for the opportunity and honor of leading another Metal.

AYE!
