I walked out of the house to a nice 50 degree morning, perfect for a beatdown!
Mosey to the parking lot near the dumpsters, fortunately it’s still too cool to offer much stench.

Strong work out there by everyone, we covered a lot of ground for one of my Qs. Shouts of “Hairband Marathon” and “Hairband Triathlon” were overheard. It’s good to keep people on their toes once in a while so when you are known for not running much, throw some mileage in.
Welcome to “Kilt”… or maybe a slight tweak to “Tilted Kilt” Eric Butler. Great having you out, keep coming it won’t get better but you will.
Bullwinkle, glad you made it out brother, getting stronger everyday. You almost missed us again though as we were about to head to the playground. Remember a 5:30 workout starts at 5:30, I know it was your first post to #F3Thrive and you got lost but you are good now. #NoExcuses
Of course we would have thought that Hoffa would be on time by now also.
The count is usually on time and it was obvious that he is not used to being late when he showed up all disheveled looking since he left home so quick he forgot his bandanna. Lucky we still recognized you.
Great having the young buc Espresso come out and Playoffs, Space Heater and Mercury are continually improving also. The workouts don’t get easier but you get stronger.
The lead by our “repects” in this group is awesome, Shep, Nomad, Hoffa (when he gets there) and Lamont continue to show us younger guys how to push hard and be better.
Glass joe, we appreciate your #Mumblechatter, it always keeps things lively and when you don’t post I strive to keep it going.
Turnpike, glad to have you back out, looking forward to that being a regular thing again.
Always an honor to lead and thankfully I didn’t die from the sinus crud that had me struggling for breath at times, especially while leading cadence.
Aye!
