10 hearty fellows rose to the occasion for 2014’s first edition of “Base Camp”. An 11th man appeared from the gloom emerging from his vehicle completely unready for the Pain Stations awaiting. #Runstopper decided to stop in and get his math checked by Passport before proceeding to the office. At 5:30am? Dude is a early riser for sure. With some perfectly timed remarks and slight chiding we moved out. Sans Runstopper and his stylish workout beret. #missingrunstopper

Moleskin:
Base Camp men are getting stronger! (insert Rocky theme) Strong work from 10 men whom I heard mumblechatter pre workout about not posting for 1 or 2 weeks. Glad I could accommodate your ease back into it with a slightly more intense Base Camp workout. Relo, Pele, Hopper it’s my pleasure to induct you all into the Hairburner/Inchworm club. A first at Base Camp for sure. Bucket Brigade turned out to be not so bad once you got into the rhythm of pass and run to end of the line. Worth a try again. Seal situps, and Recursive russian twist are nice additions to the Mary arsenal. Many thanks to everyone as YHC may have turned it up a notch this morning. But that’s what we do. We work!
