Bounty Hunter return to the gloom

Leave a comment

Bounty Hunter (Slackless) had far too few coupons and led us through a “pass the weights around” board of pain. When we had enough, we moseied around the Site choosing our own exercises in cadence.

My man Bounty was a little rusty…all the more reason to get his butt back in the gloom.
