All Afton BackblastsApril 6th, 2022
The PAX: Stitches, Yellowcake, Opie, Audit, Iron City, Big Blue, Geppetto, Hokie Pokie, Shooter, Guinness, Phidippedes, Bravo, Terrible Towel, Zacchaeus, Peeping Tom, FNG-Adam, Hop Hunter
17 men showed on this perfect Hump Day morning to see if YHC still had it. Rumors went wild last week about YHC following a supposedly sub par rucking outing last Friday. After all that, YHC decided it was appropriate to bring out a big boy workout the pax may not have seen, which is and old favorite from years ago at the Dawghouse. The one and only Bricknado. It went like this…
Warm-a-rama:
A couple laps around the lot to get the blood flowing, followed by…
SSH IC x15, Slap Jacks, IC x15, Penny Pickers (w/ claps), 5 Yerkins, Windmills x10 IC, Hillbillies x15 IC, Mountain Climber x20 IC
The Thang:
Mosey to our hiding spot and grabbed your 2 Bricks… and then hang on for the ride.
Just before the storm hit, YHC wanted to follow thru on a special request from of the pax for “Let It Be”.
Easy peasy… song plays and you do a merkin very time you heard Let it Be.
A real crowd favorite that had the pax primed and ready for the main event.
BRICKNADO!!!!

Time got tight as we got rolling into round 2, so pretty quickly decided to mosey to the dumpster to drop off the bricks and headed over to the shelter.

I sometimes wonder if its possible to fully appreciate (real time) how special of thing we have going. I can only imagine what its going to feel like many years from now (God willing), reflecting on this group and the mornings in the gloom and fellowship that we shared together. Let’s try not to take it for granted! Aye!
