Introduction

YHC forewarned the Pax this would be a demanding BD, so when they pulled up and saw the trailer full of goodies some were tempted to turn back. Still, 9 HIM showed up/stuck around to work in the gloom… and work they did.

Circle of Trust

• Prayers for new AO launching in the Cartersville/Calhoun area and the men it will draw.
• Praise for the healthy pregnancy of Mommy and baby Wheels.
• Prayer for the health & recovery of Kathmandid’s extended family.

Naked Man Moleskin

After smoking the tri’s in the warmup, some Pax struggled to get the assistance band down for pull-ups, resulting in an endless loop of tricep extensions. Tri’s double-smoked. Thankfully Wheels was swift to save the next round.

Overall this was a nice high strain + aerobic beatdown. We’ll do something similar again.

All followed by a nice extended coffeeteria, discussing the choicest of Disney’s recent collections.

Welcome FND, Bandit! (he’s not a she)
