Table Setter Back Blast 8.6.18

18 met at the Sanitary this morning, including two from off, for a workout requested by Shroom, one with plenty of upper body work, while still putting in some miles. Of course Shroom fartsacked, but he did give me an HC for the Dread tomorrow. We shall see. Anyway, with no FNGs, the intro was skipped and we were off to Big Rock Landing for the first stop of a rolling . . .
