Weather: 47 Degrees – Very nice The Thang: Intro, Disclaimer, Prayer 9 Pax posted at Crusade on the 9th day of December. On Mondays the Crusade pax are known for heading towards the dam, but Simon Says was not in charge today, so YHC decided to hit three neighborhoods and check out the Christmas lights …
It was a perfect morning for some speed work today at The Bounty. Not too hot, not too cold, couldn’t have been more perfect if we were Goldilocks! Great time today as always. This is one of the more challenging AO’s that YHC attends and is also hard to Q. Thanks for running around with …
In thinking of what to plan for the Hollow PAX, YHC went back and read what Iron Mary did to these men on Tuesday and felt bad for these poor souls and knew they’d be sore. But, this is The Hollow and these are real men who appreciate a good kick in the pants so …
YHC was not late, but had to yell “1-Minute” out of his driver’s side window from about a 100 yards away…wait it’s Cryptonite, I didn’t yell anything. I just out greeting my fellow hard-chargers, and away we went. Truth be told, I had to do a bit o’splainin’ before we started The Thang. Weather: Nice, …
YHC pulled into the Depot this morning with a new bag of tricks and a beatdown surprisingly devoid of any block work. Sorry Chippy.

Many Merkins and then a few Missed Free Throws YHC planned to get there early and do an early run but did not quite make it. 7 Pax climbed out of bed and got warmed up before YHC arrived. Upon arrival AO was dark with a few blinking vests in the distance. Checked out setup …
YHC put out on a request in the Detention Group DM yesterday to see if anyone wanted to bring the pain today, which was met by crickets. That is, until Waze remembered that years ago, he once visited Detention for the Gauntlet and we ran the Expulsion and suggested we do that instead! For those …
So after a short trip from the metropolis that is Batesburg-Leesville, we arrived at the Beech. I’ll admit I should have left a few mins earlier to properly scope out this new AO but I knew all I really needed were some lights, not so much as to see what we were doing but …
Flu-like symptoms claimed our Super Special Guest Q Enos, so two Foxhole VIPs put their heads together for a Co-Q. ??? Last week this dynamic duo introduced the pax to “The Plory”, so this week…… “The Torn B”! Intimidating, right? Anyhow, 7 pax posted this morning in an …

It was another great day at Shawshank. As always, these men make me better in so many ways. YHC was proud of Lego for keeping pace with Coon Dog and Buzzsaw during Stride Lite, nice work to all three of them. YHC also would like to thank Soaker for staying back with him. We had …
9 others (eventually) joined YHC for all sorts of fun and excitement today at TP. YHC arrived early and set out blocks and had a “a spring in his step” all of which prompted questions of YHC’s true identity. Fear not, good PAX of TP, ‘twas I, verily. Conditions: Clear and cool with a slight …
Conditions: 35 degree and clear Disclaimer Tha Thang: A scrawny 4 pax converged at Sbux for a long Wednesday “run”.

The buzz around the newest AO in Lexington is something special. Muggy Tape and Field Goal have done a fantastic job of EH’ing everyone possible to come check out the Beech House.

YHC enjoys themed workouts. With the Christmas season here, he thought an Advent themed workout would be interesting. The Q didn’t know much about Advent, sonthis gave him an opportunity to read up on it and put together an Advent inspired workout. The Thang: Warmup lap. Kinda around parking lot across grass, back onto loop. …
10 PAX defeated the sack for what YHC described would be “Fun” the night before on The Hollow DM board. Knowing it would be a little chilly ITG, YHC thought it’d be a good idea to let the PAX know he’d be changing things up a bit in effort to lure some of the boys …
To my M’s great dislike, YHC has become a huge fan of the music for the musical Hamilton over the last few years, so much so that when we traveled to New York this summer to see it for the first time she was amazed and maybe a little embarrassed that I was singing every …
It was a nice balmy 30 degrees this morning, so YHC wanted to do something to keep the blood flowing. And despite popular myth everything done was on the pre-planned winkie.

Lord Trevor and the boys rolled into Columbia on Saturday prepared to crush any remaining glimmer of hope that may have still existed down there on Bluff Road. By 12:20 pm it was apparent this would be the case. Tee Higgins had just strolled into the endzone from 65 yards out for his second score …
