Mighty Made it Happen

Mighty Made it Happen

4 #F3daVinci regulars gathered despite good (and not so good) reasons not to and worked off some of the Thanksgiving binge.  It was a workout that almost didn’t happen.  More on that later.

Moleskin

6:28.  Who’s is that coming over the horizon?  It’s a bird… it’s a plane… it’s… Paper Jam!?!?  Running in from home like a boss.  YHC likes it.

All worked hard at this workout.  As mentioned earlier, it almost never happened.  Escobar rolled his ankle the day before, but posted anyway because he’s a badass.  Paper Jam almost fartsacked because he didn’t want to wake his family up by opening the garage to get his car out (that’s a new one), but then decided to run in instead.  And last but not least, Might Mite woke up at 4AM and drove from Greensboro (or Greenville… definitely someplace Green) to make it on time for the workout.  That is dedication right there.  Way to go MM.  You fellas did the right thing and helped make a great morning.

Awesome to see Escobar continuing to post and get stronger.  Thanks to Paper Jam for taking us out.  Enjoyed the conversation and breakfast burrito at CFA coffeeteria.  It had been a few hours since YHC stuffed his face, so that was nice.  As always it was an honor to lead.
