The shovel flag was planted as the PAX of 23 enjoyed a different format at Pullen Park. Spring has sprung as numbers are growing which makes for a big crowd in some narrow spaces. Today was not necessarily the day, but it’s coming. Problem or predicament? Problems have solutions, predicaments have outcomes. Small problems typically have simple solutions…..for now at least.

Naked Moleskin:
– New Q format tested out on the Raleigh grounds today for the first time. For simplicity YHC decided the Qs would run their set twice, second guessing started during round 2 of McDeuce at 20 till……then I read what Chong Li’s set included afterwards and felt much better. Did we get enough Merkins in there?
-2nd F in full force this morning. Post workout almost everyone stayed around and chatted rather than heading for their cars, the beauty of Saturday morning. 17 people at Cup of Joes for coffeteria including Floppy Disk and CK. Dredd wipe that tear from your eye, I know it’s your favorite thing to hear and see.
– GoRuck May 25th registration now open…..time to bring it rather than sing it.
– Susan Komen Race June 8th- F3 Raleigh has a team. Sign up!
