For those of you who don't know Ron, he's a Maui High graduate about a year older than me and Bump who just happened to encounter the RFM girls one night back in 2010.
Ron's in pretty good shape and the girls I guess were telling him about the benefits of Crossfit while both parties were under the influence of alcohol.
In the end, Ron decides to come to the gym to challenge Kehau to a WOD because that's what you do when you're drunk. You talk smack and then you either put up or shut up the next day.
Kehau beat him and Ron paid $50 bucks as per agreement.
Now, this is where things start to differ, because I ran into Ron last night.
The version I've heard from Kehau and others at the gym is that after Ron got beat he said he wanted to join the gym but then never did, which lead people to believe that he is a pansy that didn't want to workout at RFM because it was (a) too hard or (b) too shame because a girl beat him.
But then I ran into Ron last night and he says, "Yeah I really liked the workout and wanted to join but I was moving to Oahu the next week to start my HECO apprenticeship."
To which I reply, "Really? Because Kehau said you didn't come back because you were a wussy."
To which he responded with a "WHATTTTTTTTT?????????????? No way!!! Bumper even knew I was leaving!!!!"
And again I said, "That's not what I heard. I heard Kehau beat you so badly you didn't want to ever see a Crossfit gym again."
And then he said, "ARGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S IT!!!! I'M GOING TO TRAIN MY ASS OFF AND I WANT A REMATCH WITH KEHAU!!!!!"

It might have been one of the funniest things I've ever seen. He was so horrified that RFM thought he just gave up. He really did seem like he liked the workout and even said how it RFM would be good for him because the workouts "shock" your body and keep it fresh.
I agree.
But looks like Kehau is going to have to come to RFM at some point to take on the Nater. Because he's coming back for revenge.
Cheehoo,
Rod
Ron challenged and lost to Kehau. Now imagine challenging Tehau.
ReplyDeleteTehau 2012 - Get ready, Ron.
(PS. I NEVER started the rumor that he didn't come back b/c he got his butt kicked. I heard the same thing, that he had some job on Oahu. DUDE. I recall you also lost to Tehau - during a sprint. I think this is a case of the kettle calling the pot black. I'm just saying...)
I'll take you both. Set a date / time.
Go Tehau!!!!
ReplyDeleteLet's set the story straight. Ron did challenge Kehau to a workout and lost. To be fair though, it was pretty close and Ron did honor his side of the bargain and paid $50. And he really did have to move to Oahu for training.
ReplyDeleteA rematch might be pretty interesting. Let's set up one of this year's Open WOD's as the challenge!
Hahahahaha. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Plus he wouldn't have issued the rematch if he wasn't so upset.
ReplyDeleteRod, Just face it! I think the real story is that you're still pissed at loosing in the sprint to Tehau!
ReplyDelete"Never let the facts get in the way of a good story"???! Oh man. You are SUCH a pillar of integrity as a journalist.
ReplyDeleteYou are starting this rumor! You made Ron look so angry in that crazy yellowish scary photo! You are the one who wants a rematch!
Seriously, though. You don't need to hide behind Ron... Tehau knows where to find you.
Hahaha. But I do have to add - Robert and Kristi, do you rem. how scared I was when Ron actually showed up the next day? I was freaking out; I think I tried to hide. It was hysterical. I laugh just thinking about it. Oh man I was so hungover that day...
ReplyDeleteOh come on, Kehau beat me fair and square and plus I'm also looking forward to a rematch one day. But Ron's reaction was too funny, plus now I've motivated him to return. And it was fricken hilarious, you guys should have been there. I thought he was going to turn into the Hulk.
