Climbing Ladders At Olympus

7 Pax, most of whom had just completed Byron’s KB 101 session, showed up at Olympus for an additional hour of Kettle Bell enjoyment. Here’s what went down.

Moleskin:

Great work out there today men. The 2.0’s especially put in some good work and hung in there through a tough workout. That was a great routine that kept the heart rate up continuously through a good mix of cardio and strength conditioning. Note to self to make sure to keep a good distance from Wolfman during workouts as he likes to let the flatulence flow freely at times. It was good having Horsehead and Boondock with of us from Outland. Yankee killed it as he usually does and led the Pax throughout and BLC was a beast as usual.

Announcements:

F3 Dads starting in June, stay tuned for details

Area51 pool party June 14 at Chadwyck pool-you should have received the evite.

Many opportunities for 3rd F so try and make one when possible.

This wasn’t mentioned, but a prayer request. We learned during the brew ruck on Saturday that a man was hit by a car and killed while participating in a GoRuck event in Syracuse, NY Saturday morning. He had three young children so please remember his wife and children that he leaves behind.

Thank for the strong send off by Horsehead

Thanks again for the opportunity to lead a great group of guys and young men

Gullah.
