Moleskin;
It was only a matter of time until someone realized that YHC had selected the 5lb Downys. T-Claps to Checkpoint for keeping me honest, and for nipping at my heels with the 10lbs on the Lasso Loop. I have been fighting a cold this week and cowardly chose the 5lb option. It will not happen again.
Great effort by the entire pax this morning! Nobody like running with weights, but that which does not kill you makes you stronger. For those doing the 10K Merkin Challenge, you got a 205 head start on your day.
Announcements;
Sign up to Q by putting your name on the schedule.

I know there are more announcements but I can’t remember.

The Lasso Loop sucked with the coupons, especially the climb back up to the start. I mistakenly thought it would be pretty easy but the added 20 lbs (Haggis and I toted the manly coupons around) made for some heavy cardio. My shoulders and biceps are letting me know that this am’s workout was a good one.
I thought Runstopper was disrespecting his elder when we headed over the the Lasso Loop by making Checkpoint carry the coupons but then I remembered Checkpoint is in better shape. Good call.
Great Q Escargot. Also, as promised here is my contact information. bdbriggs@gmail.com.

I need to get together the finalized list of Pax who want to help and reach out to them and setup a training session before we can help.
