Lost and Found

Conditions: Muggy 73 degrees 18 Pax showed up this steamy morning for another one of YHC’s circuits through his home turf of Boogertown.  Procrastination is normally not a good thing but it left this workout free of YHC’s tinkering and over complication.  We had a scare with a lost wedding ring but to the relief of …

#Hammer Goes to Recess

YHC has never liked the “F3 is like adult recess” familiar refrain. I guess I take it a little more seriously than “recess” (what?…me?…naw…). Heck, I even took recess seriously back in the day. It was time to go win something. #recesschamp Yeah, I know. Anyway…today at #Hammer really was like recess though. We ran, …
