None of us made it to the Burpees, but all of us questioned why we were doing this to ourselves. The run had about 100 feet of elevation gain, which none appreciated. Nevertheless, we had good mumblechatter and welcomed our newest FNG, “Chester Drawers.” Thanks for the opportunity, Masterpiece.

Aye!
