- Strong work by the PAX, they are getting stronger and stronger each week
- Glad to see some early KB work by Stumphugger and Strange Brew when YHC pulled into the AO and joined in the fun.
- Fireman Ed showed up to get some track work in before the workout #GettingMudRunReady
- With the Mud Run next week, YHC wanted to include some exercises on that had some Mud Run influence and keep the PAX moving
- When Jack Webb was announced, the PAX told YHC not to answer his call #RunstopperFavorite
- No sign of the visitors from last week running from the bushes
- Thank you for the opportunity to lead and sound off with any mumble chatter
