9 brave souls posted to the Latham Grinder the morning after the first overtime in Super Bowl History, except for Cavity who didn’t know who won the game until posting. With only 9 PAX I-beam, Hermie, and myself decided to consolidate the groups with no running splinter this morning. After a short introduction and disclaimer after Cavity came in on two wheels we moseyed through Fisher Park in front of the First Presbyterian steps. Here is how it all played out:

Announcements :
Crab Legs has the Q and Shake Weight, should be a tough workout as Dr. Phil he will be there
Gilligan has the Q at Local Honey, come out and welcome him back off the DL
It is hard to believe but I-beam has been the site q for one year, although this has not been verified but he is attempting to pass the shovel flag (or at least take it out of Jordache’s car and give it to someone) looking for a brave soul to step up. Contact I-beam if interested.
