Moleskin:

– With the cold weather, comes the interesting gear.  Mighty Mite may need a rename to candy striper after the tights he wore out there today.  He also donned a ski hat complete with tassels.  He definitely wins most unique cold weather gear.

– Today’s workout was a tough one.  Half way through, YHC realized there must have been some pent up aggression when this workout was being planned last night.  The 2-arm military presses and Merkin rows were particularly painful (and that is with a mercy audible).  Loogie said next time he would buy me a 6-pack to ease up a bit with the planning. Aye!

– The boot camp guys from Sports Connection haven’t been seen in a while.  I guess with the $40 per month fee, you get heat and A/C included.  For my money, YHC will be right here with my F3 brothers in the glorious (and frigid) early morning gloom!

Great work by all and have a great holiday week with family and friends!
