COT
Moleskin:
– Very solid effort by everyone. This was a tough workout that kept us moving with no breaks other than planking.
– Pax seem to be in solid form ahead of the Mudrun next weekend
– YHC based this workout on one that my daughter’s volleyball team did for conditioning (without the running)
Announcements:
– Stonehenge converging at The Rock next Saturday but at regular 6:00 AM start time. Pax can still get to early sports or got for a doubledown.
