@IceDancer took us out with words of thanks and praise.

Announcements & COT:

  • Shmedfest next Sat (8/25). The regularly scheduled workouts are canceled in favor of a “convergence” of sorts where Fia, F3, and 2.0s/3.0s of all varieties are welcome. Start time 8:00am at the Dixie Classic Fairgrounds. Finish time 9:15am.
  • Prayers for @LightBrigade’s mother who is going in for surgery next week
  • Prayers for @IceDancer & his M; they are expecting the arrival of their 2.3 in a couple of weeks
  • Shout out to @Zima for the inspiration for this workout. This one wasn’t nearly has horrible has his, but it did have a certain “horribleness” all it’s own…
  • Great to see @LightBrigade out in #WeFoCo. Nice to have the city-folks join us villagers once in a while! Btw, @LightBrigade’s running skills are looking pretty sharp these days.
  • @RedEye showed up today on #SpicoliTime but always better late than never; his cheerful countenance is always a welcome sight!
  • @ButterMaker made a comment about picking up an iron lung while at the hospital; I think he was referring to my loud wheezing as he was out in front hanging with the #Fastholes and crushing the exercises.
  • @IceDancer arrived early while riding in on two wheels and then proceeded to outpace everybody; thanks for the push today & for picking up the six!
  • Great work by a great group of men!

Aye!
