  • Welcome FNG Mark Nelson now known as "Jorts," it will not get easier but you will get stronger
  • Hate them or love them, 120 burpees will get the blood flowing and is a great equalizer for a 45 minute beatdown…hopefully you got your $$$ worth this morning
  • Gypsy crushing it in the gloom…lookin' ready for your VQ at #TheFoundry…strong work brother
  • Good to see Tommy Boy back out in the gloom #kotters
  • Dallas Roast is tonight at the Wynfield Forest Clubhouse at 8 PM and Quarter Ruck V on 3/10….both will be similar events…fun and free beer
  • Thanks to the Lake Forest Men's Ministry for the EH (Email Headlock in my case) and to the pax for the constant encouragement and motivation. Great to be back at the helm at #TheFoundry and to have the opportunity to lead such a willing and eager pax.

Until the next time…
