Cold, rain, miles, and misery: the perfect combination for a CSAUP to kick off 2025. Here is how it all went down: 20 Ruckers and a few straight through runners (Doozy and Big Rig) set worth, with the remaining 16 or so Pax joining Hitch for beatdown #1. Hitch Beatdown (stretch session). Dude. Thank you. Hitch basically warmed us on under the amphitheater and did helped get us ready for the run. Interesting side story: During the stretch session, a popping sound, followed by smoke came from Beaver’s head. Well, turns out his battery in the headlamp exploded. Damn dude!…

I finally crossed the river and exercised my ghost flag option with Bootleg graciously stepping aside. Now he has a whole beatdown and pre-written backblast in the can. Thanks buddy! 12 PAX deep, YHC muddled through an hour somehow. It seemed for most of that hour half the PAX didn’t hear my called exercises while the other half heard them clearly and grumbled. Grumbles mean you’re on the right track. Treacherous ice and snow on the ground, the PAX was careful not to turn an ankle. Little mosey with a lap around the traffic circle. Circled up for: Andy Dufresne, dead man hang, helicopters, SSHs, copperhead squats,…
