Peak 51 Up and Down

10 Pax jetisoned from their respective fartsacks and committed themselves to encourage and push each another on still a new and exciting journey to Peak 51.  Today’s workout was somewhat of a ladder, and only a few rungs were missing!

As always it is an honor to lead this group of men.  Everyone pushed hard and hopefully left a little more gassed, but re-energized at the same time.  It was great to have Madison as a site FNG… welcome to Peak 51!

Dora and Strangebrew met early to ruck, while Sensei, Geraldo and YHC had conspired to meet early for a fellowship 5k run.  Both endeavors were excellent!  I can speak for myself that we will try to do the 5k on a weekly basis for those interested.  Check twitter to confirm.

Drop Thrill, thanks for the send off prayer.

Sorry I missed this one. Crazy week at work…

RE: SB’s challenge. Excellent idea. Begs the question: is there a PAX contact info database somewhere? If not, I’d love to get something like that going. Several times I’ve wanted to contact someone, but have no idea how to do it.

Yeah, pretty much Twitter is the only way I’ve been able to establish contact with most people. Then I’ve found them on Facebook a good bit through finding their real names on Twitter.

But yeah, it would be nice if there was a way to contact easier.

And WS, it’s weird that your fartsack is called work. 😉

Missed you and quite a few guys in the gloom yesterday.

Heh. Yeah. You’d be amazed how much work you can get done by simply hitting the Snooze button.
