F3 The Abyss – May 19, 2021

I have been posting for a few years in the Lake Wylie region. My first post in Lake Wylie was at The Abyss, however I had never been out here to “Q” a workout.  I had a general idea of what I wanted to do when Grassy Knoll asked me a few weeks back. After a brief disclaimer, we took a long mosey out of the school and came back in from the entrance off…

Who’s missing a glove?

Barracuda….running with extra work.  I was dreading this day, the worst are these days where it’s 33 degrees and raining.  I thought for sure that I could talk 1-2 guys that would come to just go get coffee instead.  Well, 9 other aggressive men showed up on this terrible day so it looked like we would be working.  I told them all they were idiots and we took off.
