When Anchor QEA’s Bellingham office declared themselves the Enviro-mentals and entered the annual Ski to Sea race, we all thought they were a little touched. But now the Laguna Niguel office had to show them up and enter Camp Pendleton’s annual Mud Run—leaving everyone else wondering who the crazy ones really are. Let’s consider: In Washington on May 24, eight staff members competed in a relay race that included 90 miles of running, cross county skiing, road biking, canoeing, mountain biking, downhill skiing, and sea kayaking. In California on June 7, eight Anchor QEA representatives ran a 10K course with tire obstacles, something called “Suicide Hill,” three river crossings, two 5-foot walls with mud on both sides, a tunnel crawl, a slippery hill climb, and a final 30-foot mud pit. Hmmmm…..sounds like a draw.
Which Anchor QEA office will throw their hat into the ring (or their straightjacket into the asylum) next? Greased Hog Riding Competition in Ocean Springs? Five-Alarm Chili Cook-Off in Austin? The gauntlet has been thrown, and no one will rest until every Anchor QEA employee has added a sporty nickname in quotation marks to their email signatures. Of course, the real competition will be to see which office can throw the best after party—and there’s nothing crazy about that.
