Surge was a little chatty this AM and it was good. Wee Wee got in a little trash talk for the big game. Nail Pop was Nail Pop, always talking. Abner proclaimed his school DBU while kicking himself for failing terribly at Carolina/Clemson trivia. Wild Hog learned a little Southern speak. We also got in a 2.3 miles in 45 min worth of AMRAPs and suicides. Great morning at Surge.
Happy Thanksgiving, men. Eat well and take a good nap.
