First things first, G-6 himself posted at Asylum this morning, that’s an entire backblast right there. P-nut showing up made it even more historic, so unFNGs Wham-O and Trotline were given a remarkable first time back.

Opening the mailbag: SSH, BSIA, Shoulder Blasters.

A letter from the PAX introduced a tear in the very fabric of the space-time-first-F continuum. How can you grant a request to deny all requests? Your Q was so perplexed that he left the music at the lightpole and we did many Happy Burpees accompanied only by the silence of our deep pondering.

The last hill sprint almost got some merlot out of Wham-O but he took a knee and saved the grounds crew a cleanup.
