After a great deal of hesitation, anticipation, planning(and lack thereof), beta tests and cryptic tweets… Flood Zone launched this morning with 12 curious pax in tow. The 5:15 start time has been noted to be noticeably earlier but that didn’t hold back 5 from tempting the 15 minutes of extra credit.
The Thang… (first 15 min)

Backwards Sprint up the ramps
Bear Crawl the across levels to next ramp

COT
-Strong work by all especially those who braved the EC
-Location worked well which is good news, apologies for the hiccup in logistics this morning but YHC thinks all pax were gassed by the finish, Hope to see an even larger pax out next week
-Hopefully the sewage removal on the opposite side of the mall isn’t a regular thing.. or else that lap might have to be nixed from future workouts
-Tclaps to Lax for Keeping with the Pax the whole way.. Explains why Duff is in such great shape having to stay ahead of that young workhorse
-Next GoRuck is in Planning stage. Tentative date, early spring/late winter 2014. If you’re even curious, give your email to Utah, Fungo, or myself so we can keep you in the loop with developments and training. Promised to be the greatest team building experience you can find.
-Hope Builder workouts now Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 4pm. Promises to be an inspirational 45 min.
Prayer requests for ManRam and Hasselhoff with injuries.
