MOLESKINE: Amazing effort this morning by everyone who participated. Greyhound posted the fastest 4:13 Strong time of the year at 22:04. We had an “all in” time of 31:56 with our last finisher running the 3 miles in steel toe boots.

The fast time allowed for plenty of bonus work in the circle to finish out the 45:00. Thank you tampalibra hambone and Hair Band for running with us this morning.

THE THANG: Partner Up and RUN!!

MOLESKINE: We had several PRs today – Wolverine, Mane ’N Tail and hambone!

Today we put into practice the last line of the poem we have memorized…“eyes front, head high, to the finish, see it through”. Several PAX failed to see it through this morning, opting to take a break after the run rather than join the circle. To make sure that everyone finished together, a surprise 1/4 mile was added in before COT.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Only two more runs remain for this class. Signing Day is Friday 2/21

COT: Prayers for healing, family, strength and guidance.
