Moleskin

  • Yes, Thriller did count all the reps in Japanese.  Luckily no attending pax spoke Japanese, so they didn’t know if he was making it all up or not.  Everyone did learn that Roku is #6.
  • Yes, everyone did get really muddy and itchy but luckily there was not as much goose crap as usual
  • Yes, it was a good change from all the murph training
  • No, it did not help us be less sore after doing the murph the previous day
  • No, we did not really grapple and throw each other.  We will save this for Thriller’s next Q.

Announcements

  • Youth services workout on Saturday
