MoleSkin:

Philosophical discussion of Mosey between The Shore and TR this morning.  The Shore understands it to be walking, whereas TR understands it to be a little baby jog.  The F3 Lexicon is silent on the issue so in the spirit of the Starfish, we decided it would be “not running”.

Three 2.#s joined the Pax this morning.  Sickle (Ice Hole’s 2.#, Buzz Kill (The Shore 2.0) and Sandbar (The Shore 2.1).  Whether they wanted to tag along with their respective Pops or were sentenced to F3/Juvie is unknown….however, Buzz Kill and Sandbar will be joining the Shore and perhaps? the rest of his family for the Spartan Sprint in the Spring.  They hung tough, but alas, the young ‘uns succumbed to TR’s never-ending hill sprints.  TR thought of dialing it back for the Juvies but did what #TheWorldsToughestPediatrician would do: took it up a notch.  If you wanna be the man….

And I hope other Pax across F3 Nation read this because YHC is fairly certain there was a Titan sighting jogging on Rea Road with what appeared to be a poodle.

Language Barrier:  When told by Hops to grab a “smallish stone” – Wanker and Haggis (England and Scotland, respectively) grab stones as big as their heads.  Regrettable choice for man maker merkins.  Maybe you guys could go in together and purchase Rosetta Stone?

Has Stage Coach or Short Sale missed a post since starting? #morecowbell

And further – Stage Coach was faster on the hill sprints than YHC is on a straightaway.  #DieselSmoke

One final note — most of the Moleskin content provided by TR with a few small additives from YHC (Hops).

Great work fellas.  Proud to help lead a great group of guys this morning.  Aye!
