Eighteen Pax were duly notified and disclaimed:
Your workout leader, while a stud in his own right, is a rank amateur. His training is comprised of watching You Tube videos and reading fitness articles from Self magazine. It’s dark–you may fall down. It’s cold–you may pull a muscle or twelve. You’re old–but you think you’re young. You’re not. Past performance does not indicate future results. People can, and do, lose money, dignity, and health. Remove shirt before ironing. In the event of death, discontinue exercising immediately.
Asking for objections to proceed, and hearing none, we commenced to warming up:
- Little Baby Jog to lower lot
- SSH x 20
- Notice to latecomers: you might get hurt. Go home.

COT
MOLESKIN
- It’s been too long since the Skunk PAx burned hair so we made up for lost opportunities with a bountiful 30+ minutes. Many Hairburner FNGs on the course today–from Curd’s zig zagging about the parking lot to Zip-A-Dee’s Kimodo dragon style push. Quoth TD: “There’s something special about having your head below your heart.” True dat. Judging from the Pax this morning, there’s also something special about laying on the pavement after a Hairburner, hoping your heart doesn’t explode.
- Kotters to The Nibbler (“Nibbler!”). It’s assumed that by virtue of his return to Skunk that YHC’s transgressions of the inaugural Ol’ St Nib Campaign have been put to rest. No bro hugs needed–I feel ya. Welcome back, Nibbster Bunny.
- Ruck fatigue? None spotted.
