We gathered at Midoriyama on Tuesday where I planned to celebrate Slaw’s 50th birthday by doing the hero WOD I created for him. If you are unaware a few years ago I decided to create some WOD’s to celebrate guys that are important and impactful in my life. Slaw happens to be one of those guys.

Shout out to Chubbs for pushing his pace a little more today and also to Wirenut for running around me and helping motivate me to run a little further this morning!

Maybe Man Nipples Are Not Useless

I saw Round Up after my run this morning. He was quickly heading to the truck to get home to help his babies up and ready for the day, but I did get to ask him briefly about some ‘interesting’ Facebook videos I saw of him and his baby last night. You will need to friend him on Facebook or ask him in person for more details. He and his M are 2 of the funniest people around on Facebook so you should check him out. They’re like a little reality show or something.

Great crowd this morning. We had 17 running or rucking various distances. Great work men!

Announcements: Q vs Q final at Folsom Saturday @ 6:30, Community Foundation Run also Saturday at the basseball stadium in Gastonia. Painlab-style workout before the run at the stadium if you’re interested. See Ball Joint or Flintstone if you are interested in the 24 hour run at the White Water Center.
