Moleskin

• Toxic sure climbs stairs fast for a man with half a colon.
• The Force sure can’t jump high for a man with half a finger.
• Baller complained minimally.
• Unless I missed it, this is the first workout I’ve ever had with Amen where I didn’t feel an earth shaking ass belch.
• Frogger mumblechattered, but not as much as normal.
• Ultraman played choose-your-own-adventure with KB weight.
• Peart has saweeeet goals for 2023. Quarter ruck + 10k (you all now gotta join quarter ruck this year to see him crush it).
• Bijoux, Die Hard, and Rocket all quietly put in the work.
• Noticeably absent was Gambini who “couldn’t find his keys”. But what’s Hotwax’s excuse?

Seriously though, it was a blast, coffeeteria was great, and thanks so much for the opportunity to lead!
