Diamonds Are Forever … or Until You Need a Bathroom Break By the time YHC arrived on the scene we already had a police cruiser observing from a distance in the parking lot. The Commish told him something that apparently made him believe we posed no threat, so he eventually left without hitting the siren. All license plates are no doubt now on a watchlist, so score one for the PAX who parked offsite and ran it in.

Changing of the Guard
The time has come for the guard to change at Wolverine. Bogo and Pivot completed their time at the helm. They did and amazing job, continuing what Hi-Liter and Biner so graciously began two years ago. The workout and transition went something like this.
Well, maybe it was a little more American.
Maybe not quite that patriotic and brave. More like this.
Yes, the workout today was based on the GHHS Color Guard conditioning routines which are set to music.

3.9 miles + a boat load of stuff in between ... The things you come up with to fill 1.5 hrs
Date: 8/31/19
PAX: Cataracts, EarharT, Kermit, Lookout, Peeping Tom, Sub, Trike, WWW
YHC got the honor to Co-Q with Peeping Tom (True HIM). PT approached me via Slack. We were supposed to Q The Green Mile a few weeks back but I had to take an anniversary weekend trip to beach. So, when PT asked, I didn’t hesitate to accept. Here is a learning point: we did coordinate with each other but we weren’t specific on what we were doing.
