VSF planted for PAX of 14 at NCMA, driving rain and cross winds included at no charge. Intensity level was treated differently this week as we used the 90 minute session with props for a change, GR1s were the item of choice.

COT with prayer by Les Nessman (think so) & deep thought by Deliverance
Naked Moleskin:
-This a maiden effort to Q a GoRuck style workout for both Q’s, likely having non-Ruckers was accounted for in the plan. T-claps to the PAX who made it out in those conditions, forecast is looking like high 40s in 2 weeks and we will be wet.
-Welcome FNG Sippy Cup, the brother-in-law of Lutz from out of town (think the former is right). Well we all felt Joaquin might make sense at first, but upon digging a little deeper we discovered he’s in sales & marketing for children’s products…..thus the name. That and he liked Joaquin.
–Denali has the Q next weekend, NO WHIPLASH Oct 17th.
–The Arena is this Friday, 2pm run from Pullen with a 2:30 workout at THP. Weather should be much nicer.
-Great to see non-regulars Les Nessman & Deliverance post along with site FNG Singlewide (he now knows why we call it the big hill). Deliverance made the most of his appearance since the last one got cut short #finchincident, sharing an observation from last week regarding a new scent in feminine hygeine. Now the twitter banter makes sense, I think…
-Prayers for the state of SC with the extraordinary rainfall over the past 72 hours.
