COT

We did 2 COT’s today.  We needed to start with a prayer to lift up The Shore’s family.  Heavy hearts this morning at Area 51 and around our region and beyond.  Thanks to Abacus for the takeout.

Very much appreciate the invite to Q.  This is a great AO.  The 7 men present pushed hard.  OT was late, but he made it, and it was good to see him.  Joker was out front.  His shoes are about to disintegrate mid-stride.  They don’t make that model anymore and he loves them.  I get it.  Fairly certain he would have been out front barefoot.  Strong work.  Squid and OT owned the Jump Squat ladder.  Great to meet Levi.  Strong work from him for 60 minutes.  And he’s a super nice guy.  Abacus and Huggie Bear pushing strong as usual.

Enjoyed the workout, and, again, thanks for the invitation to Q.

Strong lead as always Mermaid. We’ll definitely have you back out to Q, even if OT disagrees. Kudos to OT for posting 10ish minutes late. Most would have probably mailed it in at that point.
