It was humid as it can be. The runs felt like swimming through soup. This was a ala carte workout of sorts and thats good. It’s good to be challenged by the curves life throws at you. Thanks to Fireman Ed for the lead. YHC appreciates the shared pain planning. Notable mentions: Knight Rider is a speedy fellow. Heard he is visiting Swift tomorrow. You will fit in just fine brother. Great work out there by all. Looking forward to seeing everyone out for this weekends Southern Discomfort Tour. Watch the twitter and email for last minute announcements and schedule.
