The shovel flag was planted and 16 Pax, including one FNG, gathered for a hot and humid summer beatdown at Raleigh’s original F3 workout site.  A good time was had by all.

Naked Moleskin

  • Tclaps to Teeter for picking the gorilla walk and then blazing the rest of the Pax across the field.  Nice work.
  • Tclaps to all for hanging in on a warm morning.
  • Great to have Grease Monkey back at Pullen after a summer hiatus.
  • Welcome to FNG Ponch.
  • New workouts abound.  Starting August 28, Howard will lead a 5:45 a.m. workout in Fuquay-Varina.  Zero Hour kicks off at Jaycee Park on August 19, also at 5:45.  TARP will bring the pain.  Rumor has it that there is a new Saturday workout at Carroll Middle School.
