Bagpipe numbers have gotten so high that a primary and secondary Q are assigned. With 35 it was decided to split the group. This is what group 2 did. 10K Merkin Challenge began yesterday. As tweeted by Tiger Rag, “The plague touches all, wanted or not.”

Moleskin
334 merkin. 2.33 miles mostly in the deck. Increasing distance uphill sprints to close it out. That workout got the job done for YHC. If you are not doing 10K merkin challenge it may have been a little heavy on the merkin. Heck, even if you are doing it, that is a lot of merkin in 45. However, YHC hears Lobsta Roll laid down 550 on the Matrix pax yesterday. Tried to balance in a fair amount of running and sprints. All pax worked hard. Pebbles, Mic Check, Dear Abby showed some fast twitch today. Mic Check giving lessons on merkin form if anyone is interested. All the way down and all the way up. Welcome back to Yinzey who has been on the DL with a busted up knee. Glad to have you back among the pax.
Great job today men. A pleasure to lead a strong group of SOBs. Please think about the F3 vision and how you can invigorate male leadership beyond just showing up and working out. Can you do more to make our community better? Please start by bringing 100% juice next week for the Calvary Food Pantry Drive. Thank you.
