Centurion Cloud Computing

21 PAX including 3 Respect’s and our guest Yogi from Florence, SC who absolutely crushed the workout. I had my stopwatch in hand and we went to work.

Fever like symptoms, fatigue, laziness and a few other lame excuses kept me in the fartsack all week… then the thought of Centurion averaging 20+ PAX at their Friday workouts snapped me out of it.   This week’s attendance didn’t disappoint and hopefully the workout didn’t either – although i grew to really hate it about it half way through. This is a fairly new group of PAX for me and in my opinion these are the most well rounded guys in terms of speed and fitness in A51/SOB land. Impressive work by everyone.

At least 3 of us had hangovers so the griping was self inflicted. Great Q as you mixed it up well. Hops was so worn out he spilled his change (real change – not Merlot) all over the parking lot.

Thanks for all the change – a little bit from everyone adds up quickly. Only bad part is counting it although the small change will go into the machine at HT. PAX member guessing the closest dollar amount to actual in the bucket will get a prize (TBD at some random date in the future when we meet).

Thanks everyone for your donations! We’re at one week of fundraising and have over 17k in donations and making progress towards our initial goal of buying 4 racing chairs in 2017 for the initiative. Our inaugural race is the American 4miler 7/4 Independence Day and Nash will be kicking us off with 2.0 Owen (Muscular Dystrophy). Come out and support if you can!
