“Spur Boy” Takeover at Thunder

Since Spur moved to just Saturdays, YHC and other PAX from Spur have frequented Thunder on Tuesday & Thursday mornings. It has been great to post with 10+ men consistently, something we haven’t had at Spur since last Spring. There has been a lot of mumble chatter at Thunder about the “Spur Boys” and YHC was excited to get the Q and show Thunder that Spur wasn’t all fun, games, and hand holding. YHC loves the banter and mumble chatter of Thunder and usually cannot contain my laughter during workouts with Beta, Boris, KJ, Paperboo, and many others.

Weather: 67 and felt cool for the first time in a while

The Thang..

Mosey back to the start.

  1. Great workout. Add to the moleskine and announcements to come out to jasons deli in the vista on thurs at noon to meet with new director of palmetto place to discuss some new opportunities to be #HIM

  2. And don’t forget to mention our #BillyZane pulled in off the streets of Shandon for a lap and a half of the four corners. Might be we give it away enough, he takes it to India when he returns, and boom! F3 leap moves into a land of a billion people…also, in honor of his new PhD, we should call him “Doctor Neutron” it’s only fitting…
