Backblast The Fog @ S Poshlands

Pax- Jitterbug, Mr. Cotter, Gypsy, Mcafee, Iceman, Flounder(Q)

Weather 29degrees, Ice and thick fog.

I planned on doing some movement around the park, need to add more running to my life. On the way in the parking lot I quickly realized there was a thin layer of ice over everything. A few minutes later an unknown enthusiastic fellow plowed over a few curbs entering the parking lot. Of course we invited him and his buddy to join us but they decided to keep being boring instead, then slowly trotted away onto the Fog. Not to “The Fog” but disappeared into the actual fog or gloom as we say.

Disclaimer given So on to the warmups. Iceman getting chippy about the 7:00:0003 start time, smhhh.
