Moleskin:
Despite a Couple of last minute notices of a Road Closure and Substi-Q, the pax showed great resolve and a strong sense of direction finding the proper starting point for today’s workout. We weren’t going to cover much ground this morning, but there would be more than enough bell work to keep everyone on their toes. Got a nice warmup in, took a run, then went right at the hill for 20 minutes of live action. Everyone seemed to be in the zone, blasting through the reps and flying up the hill. The goblet squats in round 2 were the equalizer and I for one was feeling those for the remainder of the time. Not a ton of banter out there as the sweat was flying and the double bells were clanking. There were enough Futballers to field a squad out there this morning – no chance for soccer arms after this one. Thank you all for being flexible with location. Hopefully everyone got their money’s worth. In the event I missed any backblast worthy material, please comment below.

Circle up for COT – Younglove took us out this morning. Thank you
