As the sun rose over Duke’s East Campus, 12 eager men, including our Raleigh brother CK, got to business on an extended 90-minute pain-session… don’t forget your paver…

Warm-up:

CK grabs the Q and shows us how Pullen Park does it
Russian hammers x30
WW2’s xsomething painful
Partner crotch sweats (leg pushdowns) x1 minute

Moleskin:
Thanks to M Riggs for the pavers.. I wish she would put her foot down and make Riggs rebuild the wall so we didn’t have them…
Tclaps to CK for coming back to Durham and giving us a taste of Raleigh. We know you and the guys work hard out there at Pullen Park. I hope we made you and F3 proud.
Strong showing today – this was not an easy workout…
Welcome to Paparazzi, our newest FNG.

Working on a convergence between Raleigh/Durham at Umstead some time in April/May… Should be awesome.
