The Gastonia Goonie 2024

Ok men of F3 its time for something completely stupid.  Just like the crazy Goonies from the 80s this CSAUP will require physical prowess and mental acuity (yes I know those kids didn’t have either but its 2024)

What: Ruck based CSAUP

Date: 5/4/24

Time: 3 AM yes 3 AM – no excuses I know you don’t have plans at that time. (Yes completely stupid)

Duration – under 4 hours

Location: Gashouse AO (Schiele Museum)

Why: Because we can

What you need to bring: yourself, a rucksack and a good attitude.  It will suck but I promise you you’ll love every minute (after you’re done).

Details: Full details and instructions will be given the morning of the event.  Pax will follow the lost map for a 10+ mile ruck with adventure stations along the way to challenge you both mentally and physically.  We will be back in time for the beatdown at the gashouse at 7am.

As I was preparing my  weinke, there was mumblechatter about High rep counts and if I remembered my Q for this morning. I decided to do something a little different. Since it was 3/14, I figured the crew would want some Pi .

Pledge

I found out this morning that these Pax are strong, but their eyesight sucks.  Wirenut saved the day lending me a work light so everyone could read the WOD.

Gearwrench, Slaw, and Purple Haze just devoured each Pi set completing more than 2 Pis each. Pall Bearer, Pony Boy, and I were working hard completing 2 Pi rounds each. Wirenut got in a full round and a Cow Pattie because nature called.

If you weren’t present, you were missed.

Unspoken requests

 

This has been a rough week in our communities. 2 young men lost their lives this week and it has been weighing heavy on my heart. I am thankful for each of the HIM that show up in the gloom when I am present. It makes me a better man, husband, and father. Remember to tell your family you love them, hug them, and show up for them, we are not promised tomorrow.

Ozark out

 

Listeria @ The Pub

Sargento showed describing to us his recent GI Tract opportunities.  Defib asked him if he had Listeria.  The irony was not lost on anyone in attendance.

We then ran the “Sargento” route.  Perfect running weather.

All returned safely.

COT.

Announcements.  Prayers.

Great way to start the day.

Until the next one.  Aye!
