5 pax including 1 FNG posted for a Revenge like none other! Pain was delivered.
Fury’s Revenge was created by Juggernaut as a monthly challenge to test a pax’s physical fitness. This “test” identifies weaknesses with extreme precision and bias. It is a benchmark for anyone wanting to push their limits.

– AikenLEAP 3rdF – 7/30 – Fury will be closed to support this endeavor.
Prayers
– BlueBall started chemo last week.
– Flossy’s family is saying good bye today to a loved one.
– Jug’s “Big Contract” hasn’t yet came to fruition. King Multimedia and the sole entrepreneurship was started on the promise of this contract.
NMM
– Welcome Twinkle Toes (aka Andrew Whitmire). My cousins from New Mexico have been raiding, plundering, and pilfering Greenwood for the better part of a month now, and YHC finally got the EH going. “But you’re the prized U16 New Mexican Soccer Star, surly you can handle a nice early morning jog with a few pushups and situps! wink wink!” Drew stepped up to the challenge and in the process brought a little frolicking razzle dazzle with him up and down Fury Rd.
– When naming Twinkle Toes, MeterMaid started his suggestion with a 5 minute disclaimer spill……… He has been on a roll here lately with naming suggestions, but hit the mark with this one. (after the disclaimer, of course)
– Pacer continues to lead the pack by a large margin. Will anyone topple his reign? Lite Brite? Uncle Jesse? Puddin? Roach? Flossy?
– Water during the workout was necessary today. All the pax staged their water at places of convenience in order to keep cool and hydrated even a little. It is freaking hot even at 0’Balls 15!
– Jugs hopped on to the dip bars right after YHC, and immediately slipped off. They were soaked, and while drying them off he commented, “I know why we need gloves now,…..Geez Alpo!”
Every time prior to doing this workout, YHC thinks about changing it to something different. Why do we need to keep doing the same thing each month? Every time after this workout, YHC understands fully the intensity and the fitness required to finish. So far the farthest a pax has gotten has been mid round of the 15 reps. YHC got the farthest of his times by completing the round of 20 reps. Aye, Jugs, YHC understands the crucible of pain in your design!
