An energetic Pax of 27 gathered around the shovel flag on cool Saturday. YHC had hoped to lead the Pax through a mud-run preparation and had too many ideas running through his head. YHC channeled his inner Countrywide and winged it. Warning the Pax of YHC’s uncertainty and throwing out a lame disclosure we started.
