Friday at the Chopper not only did Nino injure spygate, he injured Me. With his insane runs up a wet muddy 90* hill in the dark. Great idea Nino!! Kidding kidding. But no really I tweeked my knee Reid Travis style. Just a little sprain, it’s tight and a bit swollen. Being less than a week away from the StarCourse 50 I wanted to rest my knee and my legs. Therefore the mashedup pax were in for an upper body smoke show. The kind where you leave and are unable to lift your coffee cup to your lips for a sip. That’s what we did.

The extra 15 minutes really makes a huge difference. It’s been a while since I’ve posted on a Saturday, for the past couple months Saturday mornings have been reserved for long ruck StarCourse training. Nice to get back in the gloom on a Saturday a week before myself and 12 others tackle 50 in Columbus.
Plenty of good intentions and announcements were spoken. Always be there when someone needs it. You never know when you’re going to need someone to be there for you. This group epitimizes that and is one of a million reasons why I love it so much.
