18 of the strongest, baddest dudes on a Tuesday with a Kettlebell weren’t afraid to answer the call of a BROfessor challenge despite sub 20 degree weather. Maybe you went somewhere else today and did a little running? That’s cute. We did running and threw around 50lb cannonballs. Just sayin..

The Moleskine:
Young Love originally had a challenge like this a little over a year ago that I remember being terrible and that no one completed. So of course I thought we’d give it another go when it was my turn to Q this time. Even though there were some questionable routes on the “Church Loop” (YHC must have not given clear instruction), again I don’t think anyone completed the challenge this time either. I had just made it to the 5th round before time ran out. Sound off if you made it further this go around.
Great to see so many guys out this morning despite the 18 degree weather. It is always a pleasure to lead such a fine group of men. Cobains to Header and the rest of the men for not having music for the main event, although I feel like it would have taken away from the camaraderie of the joint suffering. I was in my own pain cave this morning and didn’t pick up on any of the usual antics, sound off on any notable occurrences that I missed.
Thanks to Harley and Fletch for the opportunity to lead!
Freedom, thanks for switching weeks brother and thanks for the great takeout!
