- YHC experienced #FICA (Fatigue Induced Cadence Anomalies) near the end, especially during the Jack Webbs, so feel free to update any numbers in the comments.
- Glad Gump could make it for Mary. Always great to see you and prayers for the back to heal up.
- Hammer will be traveling to bring his son home the first of April. Let’s remember him and the M as international adoption is an all-consuming process.

Before I post another workout to the website, I will work on my formatting skills. Is that part of Q School? If so, I guess I need to attend.
@Alacatraz, thanks for leading today. Good new mix. I like the Red Pill option twist. Especially like running up the to loading dock and then down past the dumpster. Have a fruitful trip to Nicaragua this Thursday.
@Gordo – 2nd your comment. I was thinking as we were running up the loading dock that I have never done that before. Always a good thing.
Great lead Alcatraz. Appreciate it.
