It was great to return to the Castle with the Q. A small trip to the Dominican and three weeks of vacation mindset kept me away. Hopefully I can feel the pressure from the Pax to show up to get me there regularly. In typically Castle fashion, the question was asked, ” Beamer are you …

Thanks to all 27 men who showed up this morning to get better. My apologies for not listing all the pax in attendance. I had a phone malfunction. My bluetooth was connected to my car when I recorded everyone’s names and the microphone in my car picked up nothing. A lot of the usual’s were …

After being out of circulation for longer than a Susan B Anthony coin (ask your grandpa), YHC made it to Ballentine Elementary at 05:09, with minutes to spare before @F3LMRucking was scheduled to start at 05:15, so parked the car with a wide field of view and waited. And waited. 05:15 rolled around so donned …

15 PAX arrived at #TheCastle to get better by playing the Deck of Pain. The “deal” was simple: Each PAX took 2 cards. Spades = Blocks; Clubs = Bricks; Hearts = Cardio; Diamonds = Abs/Quads. Reps were performed by taking the card value and adding 10. 2 Jokers were also included, and unfortunately, the Q drew …
18 pax made a great choice to beat the fartsack early this morning and come post at The Armory (wait, are we THE or just ARMORY?).

On the first “cool” morning in some time, it was nice to be at the Shank with a portion of regular cast of characters. Seven of the “normal” PAX were “on assignment” helping Elmers move. That’s some serious #HIM work and something we’re all proud to be associated with. TClaps to those guys but also …
16 Pax beat the tardy bell to attend Q-school in the gloom of Turning Point this morning. YHC loves doing Q school because it is an opportunity to give back and pass on the lessons learned over the years. It also serves as a great reminder of all the small things that YHC typically leaves …
With both unseasonable temperatures and the reality of the fall racing season looming on this Monday morning, YHC emerged from the #Fartsack looking for a way kick start the week with a tall glass of #DRP.

A couple of business items to cover before we dive into today’s workout. First things first, I’m not exactly sure what the official F3 lexicon is for the opposite of “gloom”, but there was not much gloomy about this morning. If you think you’ll ever find more pleasant bootcamp weather in August in South Carolina, …

Posted on WeeWee’s behalf. YHC had a lot on his mind heading into this workout with a 9 hour drive ahead of him to help coach his son’s baseball team, so he decided on a tabata workout for the PAX that decided to beat the fartsack. The WO looked easy in paper, but YHC told …

Recently my work schedule has made it hard to forecast my Q opportunities – to the point where I’ve had to bail on a couple. Filling open Q slots at the last minute has been working out better for me. And today was one of those days. This was my second visit to Jumanji so …
A few months back, YHC realized how close college was so YHC signed up to Q at his three most frequently visited AOs one last time before USC.
