WARMUP: SSH, Squats, IWs, Stretches
THE THANG: RUN!! We found the train today so there was some confusion about where to go (some of it real, some of it manufactured). Overall, not a bad first run. The first 4:13 Strong runner finished in 28:30 and the last 4:13 Strong runner finished in 44:00.
MOLESKINE: The first run is alway hard. The new men are trying to figure out what they have gotten themselves into and the F3 PAX are trying to decide how they want to engage. Now that we have the first run behind us, we can all settle in and enjoy the next five weeks together.
