IronPax Calling: IPC 2024 Week 3 : Brenton Sandwich

Preamble:

YHC arrived early at the AO to set up cones, lighting, tunes, boards of pain, drop off a few spare  cinders / sandbags and get an assessment of the AO after some wind/rains from approaching Hurricane Helene.

Not knowing how the weather could change the BD would be centered at the Pavilion with excursions to the softball field (Brenton) and far parking lot (400 meter run).

30 yards were marked out via cones for the PAX at a new venue, the freshly paved Miracle Field. Another 400 meters were marked out with cones for the run.  It was time for IPC 2024 Week 3 at The Norseman.

0530 was called with a quick intro and disclaimer. BD instructions were given, questions answered, and speaker technical difficulties worked out. Everyone picked a spot in the Pavilion for their coupon then we moseyed down to the Miracle Field to get started what was to be a bruiser.

Warm-O-Rama:

Not today (OYO pre 0530).

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Always an honor to lead. This one was a bruiser and I would dare say…not a fun one. It was a tough night before and early morning and a really tough BD.

Though with what I’ve learned over the last two-ish years in F3 is that I wouldn’t want it any other way.  I am a better man in these conditions than when surrounded by continual comfort and convenience. These challenges make me better on a large scale and I hope that is true for the rest of the PAX too. It is hard, but it makes you appreciate all you have and prepare for the next challenge. As always, I appreciate you all.

Good stuff…one more IPC to go…AYE !!
