MOLESKIN:

  • Strong work out of Smokey who ran 5.5 miles to/from the beatdown and Primetime who reminded us all that there is no such thing as "ruck friendly" and crushed this workout with a ruck
  • Kotters to Pacino, nice to see you back in the pax gettin' ready for BRR 2016
  • Lots of talk out of Fenway about some pending wagers with his team, Kumquats team, and Smokey's team for the BRR…bring it fellas
  • T-Claps Shut-in for driving in from Raleigh, always appreciate the support and great to see you
  • The hula hoop was back in action again today pouring on the pain in the form of 32 burpees plus whatever you got while your partner bear crawled
  • I missed the announcements so please sound off with anything important
  • No BS calls that I heard means the pax crushed this easy workout…either that or I just missed it over my heavy breathing

As always, thanks to the Lake Forest Men's Ministry for the EH (Email Headlock in my case) and to the pax for the constant motivation and encouragement. It is always an honor to lead such a fine group of men. Thanks to Tweetsie for the opportunity to Q at Mad Scientist. Missed you today brother. Thanks to Dingo for taking us out. Until the next time…
