Moleskine:
- With legs (mostly) recovered from #BlueRidgeRelay, it was time to stretch them a (little bit) more, while generously interspersing some rock and tire work – at least that was the plan
- Really did have something up my sleeve for the tires. Sadly, the running took a bit longer than expectation, so the tires ended up being little more than a decoy. Such a shame as they were counted perfectly.
- Pax (mostly) did a great job selecting a lifting rock – I know I was sore after that one.
- However, we weren’t without some vocal complaining about the volume of lifting. I’ve observed that the degree of complaining during rock exercises is strangely inversely proportional to the size of the rock chosen. But we won’t mention Pop Tart by name. Just an observation.
- Hat tip to Spackler for the take-out. Prayers for all those impacted by the hurricanes.
- It’s been a while since I’ve Q’d Kevlar – appreciate the opportunity Fault Line and Orange Whip.
