Moleskin:
1. Great workout, all! The idea for this morning’s 31 obstacles came from Joshua chapter 12, where there is a list of 31 kings that the Israelites defeated when they entered Canaan. Great reminder to look back at what God has done in my life with Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith.
2. Some talk of prairie dogs while doing squat planks in the woods… didn’t see any, didn’t know they were native to Charlotte.
3. toughskins gave the best count for lbc’s of all time- “20 lbc’s… on your own!”
3. Announcements: sign up to help in the Mint Hill Parade if you can. Also, Deuce is going to host a bootcamp at Veteran’s Park this Wednesday, 0530.
Great beatdown, Capri! I know you made a lot of fans with the Burpees and LBCs on the gravel road. I call my little torture session the Homer-to-Marge Merry Medley.
That was an awful, I mean great way to start the week Capri! 🙂
Nice way to show off most of the new AO.
