It was a special morning. As I pulled into the parking lot at the Combine, the lot was almost full. We had some pre-runners, and a group of what looked like 20 Smurphers. I walked over to the shovel flags and a gang of pre-ruckers came up. These men are dedicated! I was able to high-five Scoober who pre-rucked Combine and then went to post at Golden Spike.

COT
What a great group of men. The growth we see in each other and willingness to grow other men is an incredible thing to experience. I recently looked back at my first post’s name-o-rama and a lot of the pax at that beatdown, almost 2 years ago, were in today’s. I feel like a different person today than I was then.
Sparty started this site, and while he started as a fitness role-model for me, he’s got so much more depth than that as a person, he’s become a rolemodel for me in other ways.
LPC started me down this path with F3. As I mentioned in the COT, he is a bringer. He’s EH’d a bunch of guys has such a magnetic and encouraging personality that brings people in and keeps them with him.
I’m looking forward to the coming year, and hope to help keep this the hardest working AO in Omaha!
Aye!
