THE THANG:
TRIAL OF SKILL:
The Trial of Skill assesses whether a Padawan has already acquired all the necessary skills to become a Jedi Knight. Essentially, it tests their readiness and training.
The PAX found an obstacle course on the practice field and the Q gave the following instructions:
– Grab a coupon and Murder Bunny from container to pull up bar.
– Perform (5) pull-ups
– Cusack to opposite end of field.
– Deposit you coupon at your flag (about 75 yards).
– Mosey back to coupon through the cones.
– Repeat
– Team with the most coupons in the allotted time wins the point.
The SITH win the point, and it wasn’t even close.
(One Point – SITH)
TRIAL OF FLESH:
Anakin lost his arm to Count Dooku, Luke lost his hand to Darth Vader. To be a JEDI or SITH Lord, you must endure pain without giving up.
TRIAL 1: PLANK OFF at the bottom of the hill.
– Once a PAX gives up he is required to do Hill Sprints until the contest ends.
– After +/- 5 minutes there were 3 PAX remaining: Myrtle, Downy, and The Notebook.
– Jedi mind tricks were attempted, but the force was strong with these younglings.
– The Q called for “Low Plank” when only 2 PAX remained: Myrtle and Downy.
In the end, Myrtle proved worthy of promotion to “SITH Lord” holding out for over 6 minutes and resisting the attempted JEDI mind tricks.
(2 Points – SITH)
TRIAL 2: BINOCULAR HOLD
– Same rules as above: Hill Sprints once you give up.
– The PAX quickly began giving into the flesh, some only lasting a few seconds.
Papa Roach held out the longest, earning the title “JEDI”.
(One Point – JEDI)
TRIAL OF COURAGE:
The Trial of Courage assesses a Padawan’s bravery and fearlessness.
It challenges them to face their greatest fears and remain steadfast even in the face of certain death.
AT THE HILL:
– 4 PAX from each team start at the top of the hill:
– Pair up and fireman’s carry your partner to the pull up bars
– All 4 PAX pull up burn out (AMRAP)
– Mosey back to hill – Swap
– Remaining PAX at bottom of the hill:
– 3 Merkins at the bottom of the hill
– Hill Sprint
– 3 Merkins at the top of the Hill
– Repeato until pull-up teammates return.
– Team with the most pull-ups wins the point.
Team SITH for the victory.

COT:
The 30/30 COT this morning with the discussion question being “Other than your Wedding Day or the day a child was born, if you could relive one day, what day would it be?”
All 16 pax came prepared with a response that differed widely, with some recalling days of missed opportunities, others cherishing days of fun memories, and one even willing to endure a less-than-great day for the chance to see a loved one just on last time.
Thank you men for engaging and sharing this morning. We’re looking forward to the continued growth of the 30/30 concept across our region.
