13 pax arrived in the gloom this morning for #purgatory. Upon arrival, two of Winston Salem’s finest were having a in depth conversation in the parking lot while paying no attention to the group of men forming nearby. Cars continued to show and the group swelled from 1 to 13 in short order. 0530 arrived and we took off for our adventure:

The pax had chatter going all morning. Really didn’t catch much as YHC was concentrating on delivering the workout in an acceptable manner.
Apparently we introduced Burlap to his first ever Capri lap this morning.
Copious amounts of complaining and moaning regarding the workout today. Mission accomplished.
Nice working out with Lace and Turnover today for the first time. Feel free to come over to #WeFoCo sometime and visit. We don’t bite like the dash pax may have told you.
Today was Whaler’s first sanctioned F3 workout. Whaler is also known as John Bandle. He was named during #willrun4thebourbon training by the #OH4TB team. Background: Whaler is from Alaska where he did a stint as a fisherman among other jobs. In addition, research found several photos of Whaler on the interwebs at Carolina Hurricanes games. Spam-a-lot drew the connection between Alaska, Hurricanes, and the Hartford Whalers to come up with the name Whaler – Boom it fits.
Prayer Requests
1. Those fighting addiction
2. The pax running in the Baltimore Marathon today.
3. Lace as he recovers from a back injury.
4. Splash in Tuna Run.
5. 6th grader at Walkertown Middle who was buried this week. For her family as well as the school community and teachers as they struggle with the loss.
Announcements
1. D-Day daughter selling jewelry at mixer today down by Wiseman brewing and Winston Cup Museum.
2. DQ play is having its last performance tonight.
YHC took us out.
Thanks TR for offering YHC the opportunity to lead while we dined in Charleston, WV.

    YHC chose poorly on the large rock but well on the partner. Thanks, Bulldog.

    And thanks, Harden, for expanding my knowledge and vocabulary. The Dora with rocks was a nasty twist. Welcome back, Lace
