    • 1 of the PAX neglected to inform the rest of a serious medical condition. Now, to his defense, he hadn’t experienced an Asthma attack in 10 yrs, so even he was unprepared (i.e. no inhaler). Watch the “6”, call “Man Down”, assess the situation.  He sat out the remainder of the running and recovered but will have an inhaler with him in the future.

COT

4 of the 5 PAX did a double today starting with a 2.7 mile Ruck.  Along the way we discussed the launch, Co-Q’s, the workout and coffeeteria afterwards. We’re getting pretty excited about making it official up here in Kingwood. Looking forward to a big turnout and seeing some new faces and old friends. TAP’s to Tortuga’s aunt, my sister and my great aunt (family matriarch & 91 yrs young) that fell and had surgery for a brain bleed.
