20 Pax arrived at #SwampFox this morning expecting a soft, fresh-scented workout after hearing word of a possible #snugglefest. By the time the gloom cleared Snuggle’s maiden Q left everyone ready to depart promptly. The workout began innocently enough with a ~0.5 mile warm-up loop through Jackson Heights. The innocence quickly faded at the initial COP as by 6:07 AM the Pax had registered a circuit featuring (among other things) 150 merkins (including the burpees). Throw in suicides x 10, another COP circuit that brought the merkins total to 210, and Walter Paytons x 7 and the depletion was complete. This was an excellent first Q beatdown.

- A group including Fountain Head, Chaser, Fannie, Sway, and SubPrime are planning to train for and run in the Governor’s Cup Half-Marathon. The race is Nov. 9th (Gamecock open date) and if we get 10 (hopefully we’ll blow past that number) we will be eligible for the group discount. Please let us know if you are interested. We’d like to see solid F3 Columbia representation.
Hate I missed it guys. Sounds like another grinder just like Tuesday. We’ll have another virgin Q on Tuesday.
