The Mystery Q idea, hatched weeks ago in the underground F3 lab, was put into action for the first time on Monday at The Thicket.

The opening disclaimer included an important warning: only Skynyrd is allowed to feed the dinosaurs.

Two PAX met for an EC run, while four met for a little Spartan training (aka, playing on the playground realizing how out of shape they (YHC) are.
