  • T-claps to these 14 men on being the first Brave PAX in AT LEAST 1 week to make it over to the Murderhorn.
  • While we weren’t the first to tackle the ‘horn, YHC is pretty sure we spent the most time there in the history of F3 (~45 minutes)
  • Here are the results:

  • GREAT effort by all this AM.  YHC could see us doing this again someday to mark our progress.
  • Interesting to see how wildly the Strava elevation climb numbers differ from reality.  Looks like Thin Mint, Haggis and Bunker and Wingman have the best watches.
  • If any corrections are needed, let me know
  • Q schedule is open as of mid-March.  Reach out if you want in on this.  2 rules: make it hard and cover at least 4 miles.  We checked both boxes today.
  • Thanks for the opportunity to inflict pain.  Mario, you’re up next.
