Moleskin:
When I committed to Q after Memorial weekend I thought it might be just me and Bucky. Nice turnout and hope I helped kick off the short work week. I’m pretty sure the Q isn’t supposed to kick his own arse, but I managed to do just that. I even called Morning After “madame tussauds”. I heard that was the 2nd time this weekend he was called the wrong name…so I don’t feel too bad. This was a tough group – Dumpster Fire, Fall Out, Private Ben – you guys pushed the pax. Everyone gave 100% this morning with no complaints.
I’ve seen all 12 of you guys several times now – appreciate you letting me lead! Thanks Bucky for getting me on the calendar. And thanks to Paper Jam for taking us out again.

Memorial Day was only yesterday – I encourage everyone to look through the citations on the http://www.cmohs.org/ . It is very moving to read what so many people have done for us. It is truly humbling and makes me very thankful for what I have. tell someone who served “thank you”.

Announcements:
F3 Dads this Saturday at 9:00 – I didn’t catch the location, but hit up Wild Turkey on Slack for the deets.
PLEASE check out the Speed 4 Need. Huge effort so far, big push this week as we have funds being matched up to $2,000, help out if you can. – http://f3nation.com/2017/05/26/preblast-speedforneed-f3-meca-concord-streetlight-5k-7717/

Awesome job all around Fredo – a coupe Qs in and you’re an old pro. Way to make us all grind it out after the holiday weekend. And thanks for the Memorial Day site.

Ditto Bucky. The variety today was OUTSTANDING. Lots of RoncoRoaster “set it and forget it” Wienkes out there lately and this one kept my attention.

For the record, my fitness level has returned to that of a Dumpster Fire so it doesn’t take much to kick me in the gonads. Still, it was an AWESOME menu.

Great to see Bucky, Morning After, PJ, Frehley’s, and to partner up with No Show for the wheelbarrows.

TClaps to Private Benjamin…dude pushed his wheelbarrow all the way through the exercise. Was awesome to hear the “three more, two more, one more”…way to push.
