Moleskine:
YHC wasn’t sure how many would post with the wintry weather and the Goruckers resting up for the big challenge. Ultimately 14 showed with the late-arriving Harley who said he had no idea the weather was supposed to be wintry….excuse? #Epstein’sMother. Escargot seems to be a natural QIC and will certainly be a success at the eventual launch of another SCLT site at Charlotte Catholic (stay tuned). Escargot’s introduction of the partner muscle-up’s was met with some groans and mumblechattering – unsavory! The wheelbarrows across the parking lots were no easy task either. The modified SheHateMe was not a fan favorite of the pax. Rockhoppers are more painful than they first appear – aye! Avoided NorthFace today, but we’ll hit that again soon men.
In the COT – FNG Peach Fuzz made the fateful mistake of telling the pax his college nickname…thus the nickname Peach Fuzz. But T-claps to him for posting on a morning like this while in town for business. Good luck and God’s blessings as you launch a site in the greater Atlanta area brother! Come back and join us soon.
Announcements:
Continue to remember and pray for The Shore and his family at the passing of his father. And lift up our Gorucking brothers as they embark tonight on a significant challenge.
Sign up for Spartan! Pay for bus & vittles for MudRun – and order your raceshirts today = last day!
Serve well men. “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends” John 15:13
