Snuggles in Disguise at #SwampFox

26 Faithful posted this morning in the seemingly autumnal gloom at CMS… and awaited YHC who peeled into the AO with the #ShovelFlag mere seconds before Snuggle’s second contribution as Q.  He did not disappoint and further distanced his moniker from the cuddly bear of dryer softness fame.  Or perhaps not…  amidst the beatdown, Snuggles was often heard encouraging the Pax as if a warmer, gentler, kinder side might be coming out… as if we were just moments away from a rest from our labors.  And then came the Walter Payton’s and the Suicides.  Snuggle… the evil bear.

Conditions: A welcome 64 degrees and 85% humidity.

COT & BOM

Moleskin:

  • Cooler weather, especially in August, feels good but is misleading.  Keep up on the hydration as it’s easy to get dehydrated when the weather shifts.  We’ll be talking about this again in a few months when the weather is here to stay.
  • With the school year cranking up, the pressure to be home right after the workout is going to get tougher.  Please try to stick it out for the COT.  That said, should SwampFox consider an earlier (yeah, I just said “earlier”) launch?  Lots of us have reasons we need to get the rest of our day started quickly but two thirds of the “F”s happen at the very end.  Think it over.  If one of our F3Columbia AO’s needs to be tweaked in order that all three F’s get their turn, we need to do so.
  • Also, we had an injury (requiring a few stitches) this morning so a shout out needs to go to an injured Pax… in fact a yet to be named FNG.  First, a reminder to be careful in the gloom.  Second, if someone gets hurt, speak up and make sure they’re taken care of.  Leave no man behind… but read the #Disclaimer

      1. Yeah, two mornings in a row that I’ve had Pax logging issues… I really was convinced Fanny was there with us in the gloom but trust you guys that his omnipresence wouldn’t be wasted on posting for F3 in two places.
