Moleskin:

  • It was a smaller crowd at Da Green today.  Chance of rain?  Maybe.  Fartsackers? Definitely!  Afraid of a Ditka workout? That's the rumor.  It's all good when you have music, and we had it going today the entire time!
  • Speaking of music – Spanarkel (61 y/o) requested a JayZ/Linken Park song today, and when I played it (yes, I take any and all requests too which the Pax figured out today) we all saw something in Sparnarkel none of us have ever seen before.  It was an energy like no other.  Who knew….not me!  It was awesome!  It was so cool, I played it twice during the run!  Great job Spanarkel.
  • Bijoux and Squiggy won the fastest around the track today to spare the Pax from additional burpees! 
  • Hulka pushed me to sprint faster today!  Nice push Hulka!
  • Heister and Leakin Deacon crushed it today – nice work men.
  • Prayers out for those announced in the COT.  We might be physically exhausted after this morning, but we are mentally stronger to take on our day today – and we will be physically stronger once we recover!  
  • Workout options in Davidson are endless and has so many options to choose from.  Today was a day with a lot of running – as YHC selfishly needed to put on some mileage today so when you're the Q, well you get to choose the songs you want to play and do whatever excercises you want to do. If you haven't Q'd or it's been a while – get out of your comfort zone and jump on in!
  • Duvall – we missed you today but know you were OOT (or so you say) – next time.

Until next time – Ditka's out!
