COT

Naked Man Moleskin

It was post when you want day as Cash emerged in the gloom wearing neon for a rest break after 5 miles of a 10 mile run.  WWL dropped midstream to take care of family biz.  And finally, Package posted at end of run just in time for COT and Chickateria!

Lots of mumble chatter throughout as the Pax relished the pain.  Everyone took it in stride with a smile on their face just like Santini’s Bulldogs took that Clemson beat down all the way to the bank.

“On the line”…WWL sounded like a craps table captain in Vegas!

You know the beatings are serious when CSPAN begs for more running…2x on this day, first with a second helping of sprints w/WWL and then again during Pushorama.

As if old isn’t old enough, the Pax put CSPAN and YHC in our place during COT with the “Saved by the Bell” references for our FNG/Belding.   Welcome!
