After a few comments on my Duke shirt and the greatness of the win over nc state yesterday, we got down to business. Great work out there today. I’ve been traveling and feeling woefully out of shape, so wanted to push the distance and hills. I think we covered 3 miles but it felt like a lot more based on the incline. Queen, Chelms and Buttermaker were really pushing it up front. Fairly tight group out there overall. Thanks for the honor to lead. I love the variety at OP.
