Moleskin:

  1. Shoe tried to undermine the Pax count for this workout.  But the faithful saw through it and posted anyway.
  2. No promises were made about no running and no burpees.  We knew running (2.0 miles,) and we knew burpees (71) today.
  3. Scrappy, being the over-achiever we all know him to be, hit Metallica’s True Grit, then posted for BRP.  Done in true Scrappy form, as you would expect.
  4. Moses offered in response to the pre-blast, to take over upon burn-out.  Truth-be-told, YHC considered it during the back 40 uphill mosey.  But then pride took over; we finish that which we start.
  5. Jethro physically threatened YHC at coffee-teria, but didn’t quite have the stamina to follow through.  (Lucky for me.)  Has anyone ever gone to a doctor due to be assaulted by a doctor?
  6. Poor Hippie was recovering from his own assault injuries via his carpet installer.  Lucky he wasn’t the urgent care attendant as well.
  7. Waffle House decided ¾ of the way through he had to leave early.  Uh-huh.  Umm, me too.
  8. Omega, you still owe us SSH @ 59 by the way.  Being late in the DR may be acceptable, but you’re back in The States now!
  9. Thanks to Toxic for the wheel-barrow/burpee challenge.  It would not have happened if not for your recollection.  It sucked this time too.
  10. Holliday and Boar Hog were quiet today.  Rare for Holliday, that guy loves the mumble-chatter.  Not so true for BH, aside from the occasional groan and dog heeling.
  11. Land Line had to decide this morning where he would be pushed the most.  I know that’s where he finds his motivation.  Thanks for making the right decision.
  12. Jersey Boy was NOT a creepy dad this week.  That’s one week in a row.  Keep it up!
  13. In all seriousness, thank you gents for posting.  It’s a lot more fun with fellas like you.
