Posting in the rain, never regretted it
AO: Big Creek
When: 03/09/2022
QIC: Crab Cake
PAX (6): 5-Way, CATFISH, Crab Cake, Inseam, Snowman, Whiz
Preamble:
Snowman, Whiz, and a seafood dish blasted off for a 0500 PreRun into a slight drizzle. Whiz was called out for being overdressed in his rain parka. Not too long after, PAX were fighting for the parka, dodging lightning bolts, with rain pelting down and cars perfectly timing their sidesplash angles onto Snowman.
Safety first meant YHC’s plans were scrapped. Whiz came in clutch with 2 rucks and a sandbag, Snowman with 2 cyclops lights (only $18 plus shipping and handling if you act now), and Inseam with BC flag. Onto the Pavillion.

TNT – per Inseam, posting today was the perfect exhibit of battling the pitfalls of comfort. Even on his drive over, his excitement to punch comfort in the face was so strong that the Wins and Gains were already starting pre-beat down.
Naked-Man Moleskin:
Bad weather days are the most memorable, never regretted, and truths become that more apparent. Just today we all talked about..
- Don’t post just for ourselves, post for the one guy who needs to see you there or hear an encouragement from you
- It’s not about optimal performance (most of us were dragging today), it’s just about showing up
- We already did the hardest thing of the day. Grinding at work, having hard convos, biting your tongue, etc is nothing compared to what we just accomplished
- As we grow in strength (inside and outside), we can stand up for and surround all of those in need or who are hurting around us.
Next time the weather looks bad, POST, you won’t regret it.
