So what had happened was….
Knowing that coffee was on the line I decided that I needed to take every advantage to beat South Charlotte’s best. I had 3 pronged strategy for victory. It began with skipping early morning work out led by Hops and Hopper. I figured those guys are fast, but with 1 hr of pain already completed I got a shot. I then appealed to their testosterone and began each Stop with this is a race who is the best. Last, I sand bagged a little until the Coffee Challenge. #didn’tdominate -Long story short it didn’t work, they worked longer harder, and faster than me.

Gummy and I worked ourselves into a delirious state of pain and exhaustion, and lost all ability to operate gates. We both decided it was easier to climb fences. Hops immediately made fun of us, Clemson, and showed us the gates do operate. Gummy and I both knew that Hops couldn’t actually climb the fence and was hiding behind aggression and humor. It’s common for graduates of lesser schools to take pot shots….thank God football season is almost here.

Last but not least Kicken Chicken and Rhapsody from Charlotte Metro couldn’t have finished and would have quit. I have been inviting them for a while now, asking nicely doesn’t work, so now maybe making fun of them will….

Announcements:
Get with Hops for Southern Discomfort. See the preblast on the website for details.

Thinking about putting out a Stone Mountain Challenge.
1. 1.5 hrs away 5 miles in the mountains, waterfalls, big views, and pain stations.

2. first mile almost straight up, at the top incredible views and 15-30 min pain station,

3. 2 miles of slow decent followed by 300 steps down to 200 foot water fall pain station 15-30 mins,

4. 2 miles through thick forest, mountain Laurels, and crystal clear creek, to the Homestead for our last pain station 15-30 mins. Mosey back to the cars.

Any interest?
