As YHC was sending the weekly Slack message announcing the line up for the week, the SUG remained mostly open for the entire week.  That is probably what you can expect when @dutch boyo decides to take a break from the October record breaking 10 Qs in one month. It appears that @barrister was going to challenge that feat in November but an alarm malfunction last week gave him a rocky start.  But with plenty of time to re-energized over the weekend, at least from what YHC could see in Booze Channel, @barrister energy level remains high.  This morning weather was about ideal at 57F.  @illuminati and @blacksheep joined YHC this glorious morning and it didn’t take long for the PAX to lose the long sleeve shirt.  YHC’s was already in shorts and T-shirt because 57F in Canada is basically swimming weather.  A disclaimer was given which excluded Canada was any liability. We then moseyed around parking lot round about for warmarama.

THE THANG – 10, 8, 6

Partner 1 is the counter and partner 2 continues to perform his exercise until partner 1 comes back. For the first 3 exercises, partner 1 ran to the playground area to perform the exercise while the partner #2 exercise were done in parking lot.  Each partner performed 3 rounds.  For exercises 4 – 6, a MedBall was placed on other end of parking lot by handicap parking space.  When partner 2 was done with his rep, he would run down to the MedBall area so pax from MedBall could run to KB area to do their reps.  Again, 3 rounds of 10, 8, 6 reps.

• Thanks to @illuminati and @blacksheep for joining YHC this morning.
• Hoping to grow mettle attendance to pre-Covid where we had 6 to 18 consistently with record 18 at once.  YHC is considering ways to bring back the Trailer of Pain while still following Covid protocol.  Open to some suggestions
• We missed the Owl this morning. The time change might have messed up his internal clock.
• Still looking for volunteers and sponsors for the Gremlin January 30h.  If you are interested in sponsorship or volunteering, reach out to Othello.
• Prayers for unity, peace and patience as we transition into the new administration.
• Prayers for those who are going thru a tough time for various reasons.  There are several pax we have not seen in a while. Take 5 minutes to think about who you have not seen in a while and send them a message.  Always great to hear from others you have heard from in a while.
• Always a pleasure to lead a mettle session and lead in general.

Have a great week!  Love you guys!
