It's getting steamy

Wake up…pouring rain.  Initial thought = FARSACK.  But thank goodness I signed up for the Q.  It was that drive, and knowing that there would be at least 1 person that would show up wanting to Get Better.  To my delight, we had a total of 5 at #earlyedition to play in the rain.

5:14 AM – Mr. Winslow selfishly asks to stay dry – We shall go to a parking deck in which the air does not circulate well and the humidity is “Columbia-esque”

Mosey up Main Street to the parking garage behind the Westin, and run all the ramps to the top.
***Something was in the air the past 2 weeks because both Grim Reaper and I decided to wipe the dust off of the kettlebells and get in a workout.  Legs were SMOKED and needed to be stretched out some before moving forward
