It was great to get back out this morning. YHC certainly needs to get his mind right as Urkle says… and does… repeatedly. But he’s certainly right. YHC is now glad to be writing this BB since it means the Q showed up. It was great to be out there this morning doing the harder …
YHC was happy to see the Rooster shovel already flying at 4:45 but apparently not by the AOQ. Happy Trees was getting in some early work and then he regaled the Pax with a tale of almost being trampled by deer during his run along Crosson. So, with that we ventured out toward Bernard Mt. …
YHC was thrilled to have no rain during the gloom as 30 minutes prior didn’t seem to promising. It was decided that we would focus on the legs and core today after my last Q was burpee heavy. No doubt the Pax will be feeling those heavy legs later today. And lastly a happy 50th …
Having not taken the Q at Smokehouse in a while YHC was excited for the gloom. For some reason YHC thought using #% alley to do a little Reaper variation would be fun. How many burpees can we fit into 1 workout? Can we do more? Some ideas are better than others. In the end …
YHC planned on the Shealy Rd route and almost posted it the night before for any of those Pax that would want to meet up along the way or jump from behind a trash can and scare the hell out someone. But as we gathered readying ourselves for the run 1 Pax decided to voice …
It’s great to see these numbers improving Rooster. Maybe it’s the mild weather for January? Maybe it’s the start to a new year of fitness goals? Probably the AOQ. Bouknights by nature are accountable to other Bouknights I suppose. Oh well. Great to have strong numbers no matter the reason so let’s keep it growing. …
YHC figured a back blast is required for my final run as AOQ especially since Urkle just took the flag without letting me have any final words. He was very intent on not having any major or elaborate gesture made. How selfish of him? It was all going to be about YHC!! All kidding aside …
YHC needs to ready himself for the BRR and having missed the last opportunity today’s gloom was critical. The route was even adjusted slightly thanks to then insights of Doodle. Punishment will be dealt out at a later date. Belding was also up for the challenge as we wondered where Puck rode off to. Nevertheless …
YHC was glad to be back at Rooster this morning to run off all the vacation drinks and food. Choosing the Chicken Strip also seemed fitting for what appeared on Titterverse to be a good posting of runners, ruckers and bikers. While we missed a few Pax we did have all the styles covered so …
Following the P200 YHC was feeling well enough to run but certainly enjoyed a coffee walk. Back to proper running next time. A cool morning saw 4 Pax ready to hit the streets. While 2 runners, 1 rucker and a coffeewalker set out a friendly feline was waiting to accompany us back. It followed/led us …
YHC needed to get in some hill work to get back in shape and ready for the P200. The invitation was thrown out to group and a $20 wager thrown down to entice as many P200 Pax as possible. 2 posted and Urkle remained $20 to the better. So, with 5 total Pax off we …
YHC decided there was no better way to celebrate the 2nd Anniversary of Rooster and kickoff year 3 than a fabled BoBerry run. 10 Pax shared in glory of a run/ruck followed by some quality 2nd F breakfast. Great chatter on the Kardashians and Kenny G all around the establishment can never go wrong. Weather: …
YHC was happy to be back in the gloom following a little hernia repair. Still only able to coffeeruck but anything is appreciated at the moment. YHC was also happy to see a strong showing and good weather. Weather: Cool but dry Disclaimer/Prayer The Route: Swayze/Hollywood Checkup Long Terrace to Crosson and up to Hwy …
YHC has been wanting to go for a light run after posting for coffee walks lately. Surgery is coming soon and then back to normal in a few weeks. A classic simple route was ahead of us in the gloom so let’s get to it. Weather: Perfect Disclaimer/Prayer The Route: Follow Long Terrace to Crosson …
With arrival of the new F3 card deck a workout was easily planned. Next time YHC will be sure to review exactly what some of the exercises are. In any case it provided good mumblechatter and creativity from Pax and Q alike. Weather: Perfect 1 min warning Disclaimer Prayer Mosey to practice field COP SSH …
YHC was happy to jump in for Cinco after he helped out a few weeks ago in same manner. With no real plan it was decided to let the Pax plan the the route and alter it as we ran. After Swayze pulled through parking lot talking about Michael Jackson’s Beat It (yeah that’s what …
YHC has really missed the brothers of Smokehouse and it was so great to be back. To get my mind right it was critical to get some music going in the gloom today and so with that some AMRAP fun seemed appropriate too. Apologies to Wino for not making any of this difficult enough. Weather: …
YHC was thrilled to be able to post and run today as life events have caused some absences other days of the week. It was great seeing Shank again in the gloom and having Wilson back out, even if on 2 wheels instead of feet. (Looks like he was pacing the Pax via that mode …
YHC was pumped for some work in the gloom and even more so as the cars kept rolling in. It was great to see some faces we haven’t seen in awhile. There was little doubt as to whether we should attack some hills and/or perform some merkins so with that in mind we pressed ahead …
YHC Was thrilled to see a strong in the gloom on today. Typically numerous HC’s the night before can lead to an equal number of fartsackers. Well done all. Kudos to the XLersvand we were thrilled to see Wilson. Now if we can just fill up those Q spots. Let’s keep spreading the word that …
YHC was thrilled to lead the Pax in the gloom today. After Tuesday’s Caboose beatdown it was important to finish the week strong. Blocks and burpees usually help. And why not have some tunes for ambiance? Great effort and mumblexhatter by all. Weather: Perdect 1 min warning/disclaimer/prayer Might as well kick it off with 5 …
What an exciting morning for a BoBerry run? YHC arrived having not really decided exactly what route to take from Bojangles. Fortunately it was suggested to check out Main St where some of Batesburg’s finest were assembled. How exciting it was to learn of some shot out windows of Tidwell’s. Great idea from Matlock to …
After missing some posts the last couple of weeks YHC was stoked to get back in the gloom with the F3 brothers. Knowing a good beatdown was necessary YHC could only think of blocks and burpees. Burpees and blocks. So, we set out this morning to work hard and get better with hope that beatdown …
YHC was extremely excited to run the Haynes after injury prevented full participation at its inaugural running. YHC was also determined to set a new record and nothing made that more possible than sheer will and determination accompanied by Mermaid’s abscence. Great effort by all and a special thanks to Puck for putting it together. …
Over the last few days YHC struggled with what to put together for Smokehouse. No one thing seemed fun so mashing a lot of things together seemed appropriate. YHC then let his mind wander and AMRAP seemed like a good idea. And from there combining some of the challenges from Gauntlet week seemed like something …
As the message board reached a fever pitch on a Thursday night, YHC knew a fartlek was in store. While lightly tossed around at first it seemed to solidify as Wino asked with seemingly strong passion “Is it a fartlek Friday?” Others seemed excited as well. As we gathered this morning without the presence of …
After the P200 and then Caboose’s leg destruction from Tuesday the pax were all in agreement that the legs needed some sympathy this morning. YHC even received a twitter warning the night before from a pax who won’t be publicly humiliated here. But YHC agreed with Urkle that the focus should move to our fantastic …
Have no fear as the pax of Rooster created plans for elevating the train tracks of baesburg to create running/biking lanes. Also planned were paths to connect the trails of the rest of the midland. Nevermind about funding. City government was well represented this morning and all is well. Prayer The Route Runners and Ruckers …
For some reason YHC thought this would be a good route to help with P200 training. Only time will tell that but it was fun and hard. Also enjoyable were the tales of a bloody hands car crash, cigarettes and leaking water. But water is all clean after 4 feet of flow so drink up. …
First, let me thank Parks and Rec for getting me out to the Smokehouse. YHC remembers all too well the that first beatdown where the struggle was real. In the first few minutes YHC thought “Cool, we’re doing some “jumping jacks” and “stretching.” Woohoo arm circles!! 45 minutes will fly by and these guys seem …
YHC was expecting a lunar marvel near the end of our run/ruck this cold morning but alas the moon was “just full.” Maybe Puck was off on timing or maybe it was NASA. Let’s blame NASA. Either way we had plenty of light to guide us around the Bernard/Bozard Mountain loop. Glad to have Doodle …
YHC was excited how many Pax would make it out on yet another cold F3 Saluda morning. It was great to have double digits as we worked hard at a little Dora and to welcome an FNG – Lunch Meat (Josh Bouknight). YHC enjoyed the fun this morning. 1 Minute warning Disclaimer Prayer COP SSH …
YHC was happy to see so many faces on a cold morning today. It was especially nice to see Penfold and Danger Mouse back at it. With a route that allowed for varying distances for your own running pleasure T-claps to Babe for pushing the furthest. Conditions – At least it was above freezing Disclaimer …
YHC was a little nervous for the weather this morning but it turns out all we had to deal with was the cold as the moisture delayed until we were finished. Since Urkle posted (at first we thought a sewing machine was pulling in but it was Urkle’s “car”) we were able to talk about …
We certainly give thanks at this time of year and YHC is certainly thankful for this group of F3 brothers. This mornings run was full of mumble chatter regarding the coming day and Black Friday events to follow. Best of luck to HT he sets out at midnight to conquer Bed Bath,and Beyond… I mean …
YHC was very excited for this VQ and wanted to make it as memorable and enjoyable as possible. What better way than with a little music and some burpees. YHC started F3 last February and remembers the first workout very well, specifically how few burpees and merkins he could do (3-5) and how close he …

YHC arrived to see more cars than Pax as 2 had set off early to get in some bonus miles. Way to push Wilson and Urkle. The Rooster was alive with 13 total Pax including 2 FNGs (Welcome Steven- Happy Meal and Cody-Sparky) for the mornings’ run/ruck. The ruckers headed out in search of possums …
Let’s see if we can find those early out of the roost PaxRead More »
YHC grabbed Q late after learning Happy Trees would have start and leave early. Early indeed as he was finishing his run at Rooster as we were arriving. Danger Mouse brought a FNG (his dad to later be named Penfold). In all we had 2 ruckers who looked to set a fast pace and 6 …
6 Pax arrived at the Tooster ready to get better and that’s what we all did. After some chatter about Apple and Amazon we were ready to hit the streets. Parks and Rec was less than enthusiastic about running but run he did. Tclaps! It was nice to hear whispers of encouragement from Hollywood’s estate …
With the option of a run with flat terrain or the daunting Bernard Mt and Long Terrace route YHC chose to run to the hills. With the smell of skunk in the air we breezed our way mostly downhill for the first mile before charging Benard Mt with vigor while grabbing some trophies along the …
On this Stay Puff VQ we had 4 runners and 2 ruckers. The running route was to take College St to Hwy 245, take a left and follow out past the elementary school and take a right on Shealy Rd. Follow Shealy back to Hwy 1 and take a left. From here we had a …
