It was a cool morning that had called for rain, but only delivered a heavy mist when the PAX rolled into the parking lot. Mumble chatter was high as we waited for the appointed time, partly due to the chill in the air. ShutIn was called out for tweeting about finally experiencing a Katniss beatdown, but then not posting. Callahan decided to give Katniss crap for not posting yesterday at A-Team, until he was reminded by Franklin that Katniss was there. Katniss and Callahan even had a conversation about why Callahan never posts at A-Team. Callahan tried to try his luck with Franklin, but no dice. Franklin was at A-Team as well yesterday and recalled the same conversation. Callahan was dejected and let the matter die. The QIC ensured we waited until 5:45, told Beaker the Q’s watch is always right, and when the clock struck with no sign of ShutIn, we were off.
Warm up
Run around the lower parking lot and circle up on the baseball.

What to our wondering eyes does appear, but ShutIn rolling late and SSH’ing up the parking lot. It was only fitting that ShutIn was late today. Unknown to the PAX, the QIC had modeled today after a previous workout [link]. I couldn’t make this up if I tried.

Grab some fence for some Peoples Chair, in the mud, 10-count down the line. Moline thought he would have a slip-and-fall, but held strong and no EMTs were required. ShutIn was late starting the count; what can I say, he’s consistent (see above).
