Moleskin

Strong showing by the PAX today! The air was heavy, the sweat was pouring, and when pushed to limits, the PAX broke through. Nice Work and way to keep pounding.  There was a lot of motion in this full hour and the early Northface  battle got some rumblings and mumblings going. The chatter was cutdown  when pax began their Northface ascent and was replaced with gasps for air.

Great family showing with many 2.0’s and welcome to 3 FNG’s. FNG’s  were branded Slurpee (son of Big Gulp), Worm (enjoys vacations in Mexico and favors the tequila), and Loogie (uh, last name is Spitz – duh?) but some elders have stepped in and a rename of Loogie is in process.  Since he is an avid craft brewer the current trend is #corona, #coronalight, or a late-breaking possibility of #Phlegm. Welcome to the fun FNG’s and keep coming back. Great first F3 workout.

The grand finale with the sprinkler relays was a big hit and a fun way to finish off this pain handout. Nice idea Stagecoach!
