1. Solid effort out there. Got in close to 3 miles. Had no idea that walkway went all the way around. Nice little loop with a fair amount of elevation. As SS said, that’ll be a Strava segment soon enough!
2. Tclaps to Kojak for the 4-mile pre-ruck…then still lapping us on every evolution. Honorable mention to Scrum for joining him on the ruck, but couldn’t stay for the men’s workout. In fairness, though, he still did 4 more miles than most of you out there.
3. Congrats to Battery for 1st time Idiot status. Looks like Othello, Segundo and Flip Phone were out there as well with some great finish times. Anyone else?
4. Juuuust warm enough for outdoor coffee today, where we got an in-depth lesson from Talladega on the cheating engineering involved with NASCAR. Pretty sure he even made up a few words.
5. Check Slack for a 3rd F workday at Wings of Eagles on March 4th. Just a little manual labor to help a great organization, and fun for kids of most ages.
6. Still time to support Big Brothers Big Sisters by donating to Solo Cup’s bowling team. Rumor has it there will be a few qualifying rounds to make the team…
7. Coach Escalade is looking for Time Laps(s) runners for May 19th. Tough event, but about as much fun as a 24-hour relay can be.
8. Need some leaders to step up and round out February. This thing doesn’t run itself. Someone helped you get to where you are, so be that someone for others now.
Go Bears!
