Announcements: #RiverRun will start Monday 5/16/16 at Bettie Weaver Elementary to give the Southsiders a weekday hill run option. West Enders and City dwellers welcome too.
DK has stepped up to organize an F3 2nd F service project preparing and serving dinner at the Doorways on Monday 5/23. There are about 6 PAX who have volunteered to help, others are welcome, contact DK. See his BB about it, another update may be coming soon.
MOLESKIN
DK served one up for the PAX when he said he wasn’t sure what Gumbo did to him at NoToll on Tuesday but his ass was still sore. Let the mumblechatter begin…Needless to say Gumbo’s VQ was a sufficient beatdown.
YHC decided to explore a little more of the AO this morning so we got a slow lap around the school. There is plenty of space on the other side of the school for a lot of variety. The field behind the school was in great shape and provided some nice relief from the typical Circus pavement. It looks like something the PAX could make some future use of.
BT was crushing it today with his big bell, maybe the name change approved by Corporate yesterday gave him some added motivation. The regulars are continuing to get stronger with the bells, a few weeks in and the PAX are all tightening up their form and hopefully noticing the results.
A pleasure to lead today men, well done.

Atta way fella’s !
See y’all in the gloom…
Nice work, Rosie. I’m wondering if I have a defective kettlebell with the incorrect weight stamped on it. May have to bring back the purple bell with the dancer on it. I’m sore in places I haven’t been sore in a very long time. And I may have nightmares from the clown pic J’ville showed me.
Nice Q, Rosie. Great workout.
Gumbo Q, yes. Clown pic, no.
Great Q, Rosie. The bell was feeling very heavy by the end. Also enjoyed exploring the bounds of the circus tent. Lots of options there for sure. Here’s to no squats, lunges, bearcrawls or merkins tomorrow. Thank God for run Fridays!
Glad we explored the AO this am. The PAX at Mumford should come to CM to behold the ample lush green grass of the Godwin fields. Those 30 second sets on the field hurt.
So that is where Earthworm was this AM. Keep the memes coming DK…
The PAX (other than me) was killing it this morning. Yes, I gave up a few times … Great job. Excellent non-stop Q.
more nightmares….
I can’t believe DK took it like that from Gumbo and Rosie.
