Moleskin

Aisle 5 continues to channel his inner Sippy Cup, posting to the workout on foot with a waterbottle in his hand.  Despite the fact that they are relatively the same height (?) nobody is going to mistake one for the other, even in the dark.  Aisle 5 is getting stronger and stronger everyday, he put in a respectable performance at the Sunday trail run last week.  Great job for his first time out.

Wedding Singer is quickly approaching the birth of his first child.  Many of the seasoned parents pointed out that a first newborn does not have to slow down your excursions from the house.  With a young child who is not yet mobile, pretty much anything still goes.  YHC has been trying to get Singer out for a Sunday run.  This week he is going to be occupied with family in town, followed by a baby shower.  Oh, what fun is in store for him!!!

I have decided to enter Swirly and Bleeder into a push up contest.  The contest would be for speed.  I am sure someone could beat them in number of push up done, but not in the speed in which they are done.  They lap me everytime a push up is involved in a routine.

Best Shot was back after a short rest.  After posting for 5 days straight his first week, his body needed a little R&R.

Good luck to Lug Nut who is off taking his son to college!!
