COT

CSAUP 01 dedicated to Best-in-Show’s Dad who suffered a major stroke the morning of the event. Prayers go out to him and his family during this very trying time.

Moleskin

  • T-Claps to the guys who conquered the full Muff: Deep End, Mr. Clean, Picasso, Skitch, Ducktales, VSquared, Prosciutto, Fissure, Ohms, FNG-Uncle Fester, The Count
  • T-Claps to those who conquered the half-muff (Hill City to Coolidge): Ringwald, Laces Out
  • When you name an event like the “Tuff Muff” – the mumble chatter takes care of itself
  • Yelling “Muff!” instead of “Halt!” never gets old. Never.
  • Draw string bags aren’t the most comfortable running bags
  • Free Candy might be the most considerate dude ever – he brought water and poured it in individual cups for the CSAUP’rs and also offered some honeybuns to replenish electrolytes calories; What a guy!
  • Landfill dog-walker joined in on some dip action with dog on leash (Cade); said he knew a guy in F3 — yep! we all do 🙂
  • Let’s just say, we are glad the facilities at the Landfill were open today – What say you Fissure?!
  • Whole lotta Rosie might be tough to remember the measurements, but it sure isn’t tough to talk about that Rosie in the context of the Tuff Muff.
  • Whiskey in a plastic container looks like urine
    • Further, whiskey shot(s) after a CSAUP are now a staple (Thanks Picasso!)
  • Coolidge passerby who took photo at the end wearing Vancouver Canucks toboggan doesn’t watch hockey; but he took our photo so that’s awesome
  • Picasso loves AC/DC and is creative
  • Picasso drinks Kale Tonic medicinal tea after getting Muff’d; meanwhile, Ohms drinks whiskey laden coffee at a restaurant that doesn’t serve alcohol. It’s “Legal”.
