Moleskin AKA Random Spud Musings

• Running a third of a mile at a time still wears you out, especially uphill.
• Don’t sleep on your boy’s ability to plan/time a workout.
• Got just over three miles, as intended.
• 192 dry docks, 128 squats, 64 WWIIs
• I wonder why there are dumbass F3 names for some exercises, but not for all.  Why don’t we call Squats detonators or some random shit like that.
• It always gets colder when you run down mugga.
• It always gets darker when you don’t wear a headlamp, 8 garmins flashing in the light is not quite as illuminating.
• If you’re trying to slow pax down, call out a pole that isn’t there in 95% darkness.
• Always fun to see Cat in his finery at coffee after sacking your Q. :sadface
• I like the beatdowns where you stick together.  I also wanted to get 3 miles, so that’s what I did.
• My calf still doesn’t care for uphill or side to side.
• We have some MF height at F3 Concord.  None taller than Luthor…none.
• Every day I do F3 is better.  Every day I don’t, I regret it. Not because of the workout, but because of the accountability.
