Moleskin
– Every number meant something today: 9, 11, 93, 110. Not just reps, but reminders.
– Great to have Solocup out with us if even for the pre-ruck. If you show at 0500 for 45 minutes, you get credit, as I know SC is about that Slackblast life.
– Solocup regaled us about his times of playing the tuba in the marching band…which sure beats playing the skin flute behind a dumpster #dontbecomeanaddict
– Most of us have hills and fields named after us, now Scrum has a crack.
– Huey Lewis “Power of Love” was a bigger crowd favorite than anticipated
– The bear hugs to Scrum’s crack and back were not as much of a crowd favorite
– No injectable donuts today for YHC
– GoRuck Double Tough and Double Heavy within the next month or two for most us, solid training today.

Prayers for the Lord’s peaceful hands on this country following the senseless shooting of Charlie Kirk and of the school shooting in Denver. We remembered the sacrifice of first responders, citizens, and all who were lost on 9/11, well done gents. Never forget :us:
