Moleskine/Announcements

• Matrix gets the prize this year for workout with highest likelihood of torrential downpour
• A few pax seemed a little wary of the rain, wearing full-body trash bags.  While that may be fun for slip-and-slide, not so fun when you’re running sprints and its in the mid-60’s.
• Trash bags didn’t last long though – seemed to come off like a prom dress after the first round
• Not sure if I sold any folks on Fast Twitch with a demonstration of the mini “Runaround” today – didn’t seem too popular
• Seemed like some were looking for a ten-count in the midst of the Runaround, but unfortunately no such luck – there was an option for LBCs… just sayin
• Good running by all… don’t let that scare you away from Tuesday mornings at South Charlotte Middle – no rain to be seen there.
