COT

Moleskin:

  • Definitely a nip in the air as we gathered around prior to 0700 launch.  PAX quickly switching over to winter gear.  With that in mind, may want to check out Mudgear website, http://f3.mudgear.com/, for winter gear options.
  • Twister definitely had the adrenaline flowing as he led the PAX out to start the workout.  Jog over to parking lot for COP was a controlled sprint.  Had a nice plan laid out for his 2nd Q.
  • Donkey Kong seems to have an extra gear or two whenever the bear crawl is called for.  Dude just takes off.
  • Joker and Turkey Leg pushing a pretty good pace for the 7’s.  Make it look easy even when it’s not.
  • Good to have Huggy Bear back out there with us for another weekend beat down.  Continues to work hard and put forth a strong effort.
