What a beautiful morning. YHC was put in the EH hard by the silver fox that may have in turn needed his own EH this morning. The no show thus ruined efforts in deterring a plank challenge…oh well it will make us better. Putz wasn’t last to show but not because he was on time. …

Having been the ONE pax to post before (#401KRun)- and also remembering a time when Moose was Q and no one showed for his workout, it’s easy to agree with Three Dog Night’s assertion. Today though, YHC was determined to prove that one isn’t always the loneliest number. (Editor’s note: Does that guy ever open …
YHC signed up several weeks back toQ at C.A.T. with the hopes of being MUCH further along into the recovery process. Unfortunately, YHC is barely able to participate in many of the exercises due to RA slowing the healing process while causing a great deal of pain. YHC is praying that the recently started IV …
Five (5) PAX started their week off right by beating the Fartsack. Since this was a switcheroo Q, YHC blames the low numbers on the anticipated Special K run the loop and the terrible Special K Crunch. Don’t fret, Special K will be on the Q Wednesday, so the PAX can toughen up and enjoy …

The PAX of Urban Legend had a tough Q last week with Knozit taking them on a field trip (great BB too), so YHC decided to keep things “fun” and on-campus. The crowd was a bit lighter than anticipated, but it made for a better competition in the end, with some pretty winded PAX by …
Was it even real futbol?

Nonetheless, there was a game. With Pinot on …
13 PAX post for YHC’s first F3Lexington Q. The air was filled with good energy, trepidation, excitement, and a dash of mystery. Would YHC deliver? Could he count? Did he get a quick in person tutorial (Yes). The reality of the situation is that YHC had a long unbroken streak of only Qing at his …
11 men took their DRP and posted at Swampfox this morning. The conditions were excellent for a July summer morning.

YHC didn’t really have a definitive plan this morning. Probably shouldn’t confess that fact, but lack of planning for YHC sometimes leads to his best workouts. Today might not have been a top 5 beat down, but 6 men posted, work was done, and we are all better for it. Here’s how things went down …
The Bounty is always a tough workout. Today was no exception. It’s been a little while since we’ve gone back to the basics of a speed workout, but today we made it happen with some 400 Meter repeats. It’s amazing how running around the track 1x with a little extra effort can completely sap all …
