23 PAX, including FNG Will Pfeiffer, showed up this morning to soon realize that their next 45 minute beatdown would be brutal.  Since nobody had signed up to Q for Thursday and Friday, YHC signed up for both days and brought in a nasty beatdown.  Back by unpopular demand, YHC lead the 1,000 rep challenge which left many hunched over with their hands on their knees trying to catch their breath and shake off the lactic acid build up.   When the beatdown was written, it sounded really good but when YHC looked at it this AM at 5:00, it didn’t sound as good realizing that some serious pain would be inflicted.  But we are all better for it now that it is over.  Promptly at 5:30, the sound of Thunderstruck by AC CD was momentarily paused for full disclaimer which excluded YHC, HCE, Highlands, and Canada from any liability.  PAX were encouraged to modify as needed.  We then moseyed to the back of HCE with butt kickers and carioca until we circled up for Warmarama.

• Welcome FNG Will Pfeiffer who pushed himself hard and did really well this morning.
• Congtats to Juice, Warwick, and The Stig to continue their incredible EH recruiting. If this keeps up, we might have enough PAX for AO within Dominion Grove since there are 8 of us, if we include @forgotten jelly.
• Great to see @brinkley back following his nice trip to Europe.  Never the same without him!
• Hats off to all 23 who really pushed themselves hard this AM. That beatdown is no joke which YHC loves to hate it!  To use one of @powerball favorite quote; “Iron Sharpens Iron!
• Thanks to @dutch boy for stepping up and organizing the team for AO vs. AO field day.  If you haven’t committed, now is the time to do so.  All jokes aside, we need more than just @tiny dancer.
• YHC has the Q tomorrow for Speed & Agility which will be more agility than speed with ladders, cone drills, resistance bands, etc.
• BTW, is @Murdock still in plank position?

As always, it was a privilege to lead this group this morning.
