Great workout today by all Pax. I see so many guys getting stronger on pull-ups. Keep setting goals to go farther on pull-ups without help.
Announcements:
– Neck Brace is in charge of beverages for the Mud Run, but he is looking for an Ice gopher to help that is not doing the Mud Run. The Ice will already be paid for, but he needs someone to go pick it up, store/transport it, and help distribute it at the Mud Run. Please let him know if you can help.
– Remember, Depot now has two workouts to fend off the problematic workouts. One starts at 5:15am and the other one starts at 5:30am. DFHS location should be wrapped up soon.
– Remember to pray for Walker every day at Noon.
