6/22 BlackOps The Tank BackBlast

E8138600-7476-4500-8AC9-478C7F2BA0B4

Brotherhood was very evident in the gloom this morning.  WeedWacker and I rolled up to the Tank not really knowing what to expect from a numbers standpoint.  Once again this group shouldn’t surprise me but it continues to happen.  Airplane HL 5 PAX from St. Als for their Tank VPost.  MumbleChatter was running rampant all around leading up to 0530 go time.  It’s really cool to take a step back and watch strangers shake hands, bonds strengthen and leaders lead.

 

Conditions – Post rain moisture in the air and 72.  Quite nice actually.

Gearlander – IN GOD WE TRUST tshirt, black old Navy athletic shorts (nice for $10). Smirnoff Rainbow headband courtesy of Buschhhhh.  Altra lone peak 3.5 kicks. Injinji toe socks (google it and buy them now). Only socks I wear practically.  Perfect for rucking and preventing blisters.

we circled up and I wanted to get some good stretching in the last 10 minutes for those of us doing the Ruck Event tonight.  Just so happened the king of yoga, the sultan of Hat was in our presence.

Mr. Hat led a little HIMyoga to close us out.

COT

We all circled up and laid hands on WeedWacker to pray for his family and Vince.  Thanked the SkyQ for showing light through F3, in a difficult time for the WeedWacker (Caballero) family.  It takes a real Q of a household to lead his family through the eye of this storm.  Hang in there WeedWacker, we got your back.

 

until tonight
