Mixing it up this morning, we had a String of Pearls with the #LilDarlins. At the risk of seeming inappropriate, I’ve included a soundtrack for this back blast; I hope you can rock out with your phone out.

- Guitar Hero: stopped on his run last night to help a family push their van over a bridge and to a gas station. GH thanked F3 for putting him in the right frame of mind to help.

YHC was consistently inspired today by the resilience of the PAX. I would’ve hated this workout (in a good way) if not leading it. Seeing everyone sack up and push through motivated me. One thing I re-learned and hope is instructive for new Qs is that the String of Pearls is a good format to keep the PAX together, whether you have a lot of PAX like we did today, or a wide variety of fitness levels.
Camo, that is the last time you ever beat me in a running event.
