    Our mission is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.
    Five principles are open to all men, always free, always outdoors, always led by a member of the pax. Only you know your medical history so modify if needed. End in a circle of trust,

    Credo is leave no man behind, but leave no man where you find him.

    THE THANG:

    Rucked over the bridge and went down along the river bank, seen some deer walking on the frozen water banks. Also, heard water streaming on part of the Maumee river so maybe the deer should be more careful walking on the river! Good ole fashion ruck in pairs.

    Ending done by Mile High who Q'd the run
