August 22nd, 2020 By Andrew Rowe

16 came out for a Saturday beatdown where the PAX quickly found out that I’m not a professional but I think I redeemed myself by the end of it all.

Second set

Partner up, one runs around the main building while other did the following exercises then flapjack

Mosey back to the driving school for some timed wall sits

Mosey back to the library for the Mary

Announcements

• Laps for Hope Sept 19
• Gauging interest to see about getting some folks to Whitewater Center for Labor Day.  Hosting a 5k and 15k.  One of the few races still being held, it is not a typical race where all go off at the same time.  Talk to Gamma or Clueless if interested

Moleskin

• Good numbers even with Locust launching today.  Lots of hard work put in by everyone out there
• Props to the pre-runners, I think there were 9 in total with Gapper and props to Frazier out for what I think was his first bull run
• Didn’t make it 2 minutes after the disclaimer about how I barely know what I’m doing to be told I had the order wrong when starting exercises.  Glad to have the Obi Wan to my Skywalker there to help me out.
• Great push on that sprint up the hill, some folks have that deceptive speed (I’ve been told I’m guilty of that too).  Props to Birdcage who put on the combine show at the end for everyone.
• Great to see most at coffee afterwards too, it’s never dull there for sure.

Thanks as always for letting me lead, a pleasure and a privilege as always.  I really appreciate this group, the support, the camaraderie, and the drive you all have is inspiring and it’s hard not to what to put out that same kind of effort as well.
