Naked-Man Moleskin: There is an old joke about the 3 stages of Ugly, 1st: 1 Paper Bag, 2nd: 2 Paper Bags, and 3rd: Coyote. We did not reach stage 3 this morning, but we came close. YHC had created two (2) 25 lb. sandbags back in April for a “Sandbag Indian Run” like I had just enjoyed while on Spring Break in Charleston. Thankfully when making the bags, I DOUBLE bagged them! After sitting untouched in the sun for the last FOUR (4) months, the outer bags (Stage 1) on both bags had dry rotted and ripped open in the course of our run. Thank goodness for the inner bag (Stage 2), we were able to complete the run without anyone chewing their arms off (Stage 3.) All the PAX really seemed to enjoy running through the dark Epicenter, winding around trash cans, transformers, and successfully avoiding low hanging braches (all except Roach.) It was great to have Pooh Bear back and with him ANOTHER FNG, Cream Puff. Pooh Bear has got to have the most FNG Recruits of any PAX – Great Job on the EH’ing Pooh Bear! This was the first time the mighty Capri has posted to one of my work outs; I hope he got his money’s worth. Great job men, work was done, sand was spilled, tears were shed, NO eyes were poked out (Roach,) and NO arms chewed off! That’s a successful workout in my book!
