28 PAX posted today for beautiful morning in the Gloom. At least 9 wandered in from GoRuck training, and they found a CLT brother along the way. A few classics from the Ball Bearings archives (including from YHC first post at Ball Bearings in October). Throw in a some new items and we had a strong workout today.

* Thanks for the patience with the new items – although injury release worthy, the single-arm balls to the wall was good. Not as pleased with the inverted mountain climbers…
* Don’t forget the Twitter
* Now is the time to HC for GoRuck Challenge Raleigh (5.25.2013). Let White Shoe know if you want to be on the GoRuck email list. A workout plan has been laid out – you need to step up and carry the load.
* Anyone headed to Seagull / Seafarer this weekend for Y-Guides Spring Outing?
