YHC took us out.

Final Thoughts:

We had some excellent individual performances today.

I did not realize Bullseye was so strong at bear crawling – very impressive.

Did Offshore play basketball back in the day? He seemed to be way out in front on the broad jump section.

Crash was flexing his numbers knowledge – young man has a bright future.

Doozy was Doozy – he’s fast.

I enjoyed leading! Make it a great one.
