Pat Vellner’s Achilles Surgery & Wild Heart Rate Data | Boys interrupted Bak Yard Ultra | Ep. 87

Episode 87: Restaurant Horror Stories, Pat Vellner’s Achilles Surgery & Wild Heart Rate DataIn episode 87, the hosts joke about the restaurant term “86/87,” swap stories about working in restaurants and food hygiene, debate when to send food back (especially for a single hair), and one host admits calling in sick to run a profitable golf-tournament snack stand. Pat Vellner joins fresh out of Achilles surgery, describing being awake with a nerve block, what the tear felt like, post-op pain, and recovery timelines including non-surgical options. He also explains unusual CrossFit Games Work band heart-rate spikes that may reflect ongoing AFib despite a February ablation, supported by Holter data showing lows around 28 bpm and highs up to 270, with follow-up planned. The conversation closes with content-creation habits, reprogramming a snatch/toes-to-bar hopper, Rogue challenge talk, and a plan to attempt a backyard ultra—possibly in a salt mine.00:00 Why Episode 8700:33 Restaurant Jobs Talk01:28 Gross Food Confessions03:02 Hair in Food Debate04:04 Lemonade Stand Hustle06:42 Pat Joins Post Surgery08:50 Wall Ball Height Argument12:43 Heart Rate Data Shock14:17 AFib Explained Simply22:35 Achilles Surgery Options25:35 Bulletproof Achilles Talk26:13 What the Tear Felt Like27:57 Pain Shock and Denial30:45 Weird Loss of Function31:42 Diagnosis by FaceTime33:12 Recovery Timeline Plans34:15 Back to Chiropractic Work36:06 Money Retirement and Next Hobby38:25 Pat DM Reel Aftermath40:20 Unasked Questions and Mindset41:25 LSU Game and Missed Kick47:31 Theo Von Selfie Story50:50 Reprogramming 26 Hopper52:26 Reprogramming Snatch TTB54:30 Jason Hopper Surprise55:14 Rogue Deadlift Run Challenge57:27 Rogue Challenges Strategy01:00:08 Compete Once Or Ten01:02:02 Content Creation Ratings01:04:51 Backyard Ultra Idea01:11:07 Salt Mine Ultra Plans01:15:29 Wrap Up And Teasers
