MOLESKIN
Awesome turnout today, nearly doubling up the count I saw for #F3TheBrave (ok, there’s my small jab for the day). We covered 3.25 miles and everyone pushed hard. YHC decided to take the PAX to a different location than usual. There was a curveball when the parking lot for the Merkin ladder was pitch black. YHC did a “drive by” yesterday morning after Rebel Yell and the lights were on. Apparently the lights come on at 06:00. Merkin Ladder was tough as always. It was dark but YHC is confident the PAX maintained perfect form. Run stopper and Mermaid are machines when it comes to Merkins. Run Stopper, that was cruel calling 6 inches in plank work after the Merkin Ladder. As always, a pleasure to lead this fine crew.
