COT
Moleskin:
- The best line of the day was actually during the pre-KB work. It went something like this. TR: “The key is to clinch your butt and tighten your core like you’re bracing for a punch.” Bulldog: “I spend all day that way…like I’m ready for prison.”
- Apologies to the pax for my last minute push-o-rama. I realized that I completely left out an entire segment of my weinke. The first thing I thought of was merkins.
- T-claps to our FNG Fatherbum (hospital last name Motherhead). The group did not bring it’s A game today in the naming department, and this is the result.
- Again Semi-Gloss was begging for 1 legged burpees, partner based this time. Sorry to disappoint, SG. I’m not doing that.
- Sound off in the comments if you have any other amusing things to share.
