The last Battle Workout of 2017 presented plenty of challenge. Freezing temperatures and relentless punishment from the Q’s made this one Battle-worthy.

I said burrrrrr, it’s cold in hurrr, there must be some Pax in tha atmosphurrrr!!! Ok, it wasn’t that cold, but it wasn’t exactly comfortable. YHC was glad to take the reigns once it was decided we couldn’t play frisbee w/ just 4 Pax. So, here’s what happened while you fartsackers were all snuggled up …
YHC enjoyed Qing for PAX that represented several differet AOs in the gloom this morning. Even though there was a few instances of mumblechatter, this Q presented its own challenges otherwise. Particularly, YHC was trying to incorporate some running and “little guy” exercises along with “big boy” exercises one would find at a CAT workout. …
Conditions: Dry and cold Tha Thang: 11 pax (1 for faculty) set out for 3.5 miles of Friday-approved quickness.

We warmed up fast. …
5 pax braved the freezing temperature this morning to #getbetter at the last 2017 #TheCastle workout. Early this morning, YHC woke up to an e-mail that the scheduled Q was sick, so I jumped at the opportunity (and extra motivation to get out of the fartsack) to take the reigns. COP: SSH x 20 IC …

Any man who has been around for over 3.5 decades would probably agree that the birthdays begin to lose their appeal as we get longer in the tooth – unless we’re talking about the birthday Q. Nothing quite like gathering up a few of your brothers, and delivering to them a proper beatdown to show …
6 pax braved the cold conditions for a game of futbol. Unfortunately, futbol only works if there is a glow ball. Said ball is missing. The good news is there was a light up disc! Ultimate frisbee was agreed upon, and 6 pax ran wind sprints for the next hour. The blazing speed of one …

The #CAT5 has quickly established itself as a very difficult #AMRAP in F3Lexington.

4 Pax joined YHC in the gloom of The Stand for a tribute to 2017. It has been a year of ups and downs that included some of the best and worst moments ever. It was quite appropriate that YHC’s 85th Q of this year would happen on a day cold enough to test the …
On any New Year’s morning, it is often a challenge to emerge from the #Fartsack in search of a way to #GetBetter. Candidly, many of the various #Jesters (whether the celebration of the night before or the anticipation of football on the day of) will tempt a former #SadClown to stay home and choose the #BluePill.

For a while now, YHC has been thinking of a second version of the Smoker (our version of a periodic PT test). This morning seemed like as good a time as any to test it out and see if it may make it to the Q sheet again in 2018. We sometimes struggle with darkness …
Temperature: 30° and windy With the temperatures dipping below freezing and the wind chill in the 20s, the Q tried to keep the PAX moving to take their minds off the cold.

During a convergence run around River Bluff High School, a friend of mine (Happy Trees) mentioned his desire to run The Reaper as we mosey’d up the hill where said workout occurs each Friday morning.

YHC reached out to Bambi Christmas afternoon about his upcoming Q on Tuesday morning. With some family issues, Bambi asked if someone could cover. He also asks for prayers for his family right now.

6 PAX showed up disappointed that Pew had to postpone his VQ, and remained disappointed throughout YHC’s Q.
