YHC got there early to find dirty, wet mud holes. Plenty. And crabdaddy gives weather report and doesn’t show. What gives? The Thang: Disclaimer. And pax needed to know this was an EH/Grow Ruck simulation. YHC was sick. But we mosy to first intersection. Mumble chatter says we get run over by @Jarjar. No, nothing. …
conditions: it was chilly. Colder than a witches …you know what. After a discussion with R2D2 we thought it would be a fun/nightmarish or good/terrible idea to invite the Columbia Splinter over for a Celebrity Q/Death match. When YHC was moving from Charlotte to the Columbia area for a job. Tiger Rag in Area51 informed …

CONDITIONS Cool and clear with some lingering holiday cheer (and lbs for at least a few of us). A new year is upon us and time to get back in the saddle or in Depot train parlance, back on track for 2025. We circled up, popped on some tunes by the Stones, AC/DC, and a …
Conditions: Perfect. Just like the view. 15 awesome PAX from Lake Murray and Lexington came out to celebrate the first Anniversary of the most scenic AO in the Whole World! Okay maybe just SC.

CONDITIONS Partly cloudy with a half-full moon, ~70 degrees, perfect conditions! Nine pax gathered behind Speedo’s truck to find a couple of Amazon boxes, a deck of Skipbo cards, and an as yet to be revealed dry-erase board. #Mystery WARM UP Usual disclaimer then warm up with: SSHs x 10 IC IWs x 10 IC …
CONDITIONS SC weather doesn’t get much better than it was this morning. Low 70’s (?) and nice breeze, very helpful in diffusing Laettner’s flatulence and Lumbergh’s belches.

CONDITIONS Subtract out the lightning, thunder, and bare breasts (sort of like the clickbait title) and this GIF pretty much sums it up. WARM UP Depot standard items with a few twists including 100% humidity thanks to Debby and some on the nose tuneage courtesy of YHC and his (not waterproof, it turns out) speaker. …
CONDITIONS Upper 80’s and humid, made slightly worse by the 0600 start (but not as bad as Hostel’s proposed 9 AM start time). Celebration was in the air for we had visitors….#F3DepotRoyalty Box Wine popped over from Goat and #F3DepotRoyaltyEmeritus Devito popped over from Globogym. YHC noted that both men, just like our current/former and …
CONDITIONS Lower 50’s, and I mean lower 50’s…the same kinda temps that Ned Stark warned us about what with his great sword named “Ice”, the dire wolves and #WinterIsComing and all that. Far be it from me to dictate how the #MenOfDepot should prepare themselves each morning, but lo to those that would ridicule others …
CONDITIONS Mid-40’s and cloudy….same as several of the PAX who posted today, including YHC. An unusually large crowd gathered as YHC pulled in just in the nick of time to unload his effects and shout out a 1 minute warning. YHC was happy to see some guests from Strut – Enos and Socrates and Depot’s …
CONDITIONS Cool at ~33 degrees F, skies relatively clear and a bit of frost on the grass (Frosty Grass might be a good FNG name down the line, or perhaps some illicit drug YHC is unaware of). Unlike a few weeks back, thanks to CSX and Stagecoach, the train lines were open and brought a …
CONDITIONS Cool 34ish degrees and relatively clear skies with the new car smell that is 2024 permeating the 7 PAX (and one mannequin leg) that showed up to kick off 2024 together. WARM UP Usual disclaimer, with explicit recognition (and agreement by the PAX) that YHC is not a professional followed by a rather quick …
CONDITIONS A clear sky. Relatively dry (unlike a Lumbergh Q). Temps approximately 45. The little rhyme YHC led with is but a portend of things to come, as you’ll see. WARM UP After a one-minute warning, we circled up for the usual Depot fare: SSHs x10 IC Hillbillies x 10 IC (in honor of Hostel …

Just like yesterday, E-lectricity was in the air as it always is on a Depot morn, but there …
8 PAX posted this morning for YHC’s first Q at F3 GOAT. Needed to get a lay of the land and the PAX obliged by following me around campus for a while. Good work men, looking forward to more mornings in the gloom. Weather- 65 or so The workout- Disclaimer, prayer Mosey around the circle, …

CONDITIONS The PAX were greeted with absolutely perfect conditions this morning….58 degrees and a slight breeze out of the Southwest.

That seems like a trivial thing to do, right – checking your pulse? I mean, if you’re breathing and reading this, you obviously have a pulse. And with today’s technology, you surely are wearing a watch that will tell you how your heart is performing. You do this by checking how many beats per minute …
Greetings F3 PAX. A family needs our help. Imagine being awakened in the middle of the night by the deafening sounds of smoke detectors. You frantically gather your wife and children and exit the house as quickly as possible. Minutes later, standing in just the clothes you wore to bed, you’re watching your home – …
Conditions: 52 degrees, light winds, 92% humidity, with a low UV index. My name is Socrates and this is my story. 5 PAX gather off campus at Saluda Shoals Park fir a pre- Go Leo Go 5k boot camp. The PAX probably wondered if the workout was to be a trick or treat, given the …
CONDITIONS 70’s and humid. Both the air and the tension in said air were so thick you could cut them with a chainsaw. You see, rumors were swirling at Depot this morning. Last night’s Depot chat (also known as “The Real Housewives’ of Depot” in some circles) was on fire. Like a flaming dumpster in …
Conditions: 76 degrees; 75% humidity, 68 degree dew point, Winds NNW 2, low UV index My name is Socrates, this is my story.

CONDITIONS 60’s and clear. A veritable pantheon of celestial bodies everywhere you looked (also Jupiter and Venus shone brightly in the sky). Speaking of celestial bodies, 14 of Depot’s finest gathered to celebrate YHCs temporary departure from the gloom (as his orbit takes him “out west”) by getting a little work in. WARM UP Today’s …
On December 4, 2021 an OG in the CrossFit community sadly took his own life leaving behind a wife and two young children.

CONDITIONS Sixty degrees and despite a few hours of rain last night, much like that delicious looking chicken sandwich the ladies on Insta are flexing with, it was dry….really, really dry. Conditions were perfect for a little fun and games, especially after Buddy Love produced a Penny Hardaway-themed outdoor basketball to the crowd, which was …
A long lost soul returned to the gloom this morning, in all his glory. Whether that was me or Stagecoach is up for debate. YHC tried for a kinder, gentler Q as a prelude to a more user-friendly option for the old, the injured, the huddled masses yearning to breath free downwind of Moose. Several …
It’s that time of the year that a lot of you have been waiting for: The Cottonmouth! Each year gets tougher and tougher to beat the previous; but they all have a common denominator: you have fun. From the inaugural Cottonmouth where we crossed both Broad River and the Canal, to the year we played …
CONDITIONS Clear skies and temps in the 40-ish range as we started our day at the cozy confines of GOAT. YHC snatched up an open date on the Q sheet a while back in an effort to connect with some old pals and perhaps make a few new ones. Just before we kicked things off, …
12 PAX were in attendance to celebrate 8 years of THE Pothole. CONDITIONS: 42 degrees and partly cloudy. Perfect. THA THANG: Eight years of Potholes sounds like a bad thing. And normally it would, but not when it comes to me. YHC. THE Pothole. So check this out… it’s been eight years that I have …
CONDITIONS A perfect 46 degrees and mostly dry conditions (in the track area at least). Partly cloudy, with a 40% chance of rain that never materialized. PAX chippy (RIP) and energized thanks mostly to an FNG in our midst (more on him later), but also at the sight of 5 basketballs that had been staged …
CONDITIONS Nice and warm at ~50 degrees….the calm before the storm (get your bread and milk now). YHC and his new best friend “Log” arrived to find Shakespeare and Lunchlady already stretching and ready for action. It was clear that after a few nights of the “wolf moon” these Silver Foxes of Foxhole were rabid …
Olive Oil handed off Q responsibilities to YHC for the day while he was DR so instead of traditional UF that the PAX have got used to, we added the dodgeball element for a great game of Ultimate Frodgeball. For those wondering at home here are the (very fluid) rules: Offense plays standard Ultimate Frisbee …
CONDITIONS ~38 degrees, cool with clear skies. PAX questioning the presence of Lumbergh’s block in the middle of the driveway when they arrived. With Lumbergh on IR, it meant YHC had to step it up with the inappropriate comments and innuendo. Those are big shoes to fill (nestled beneath shapely tatted up calves) could YHC …
CONDITIONS/FORESKIN Slightly cloudy, ~37 degrees, but felt a bit warmer than that. It seems to always be warmer than you think once you get to working out. A lot of us were shedding outer layers only a few minutes in. I’m getting ahead of myself, however. When the Q arrived about a minute late, all …
7 #MenOfDepot slayed the #fartsack for an improv Q at the hands of YHC. Usually YHC likes to meticulously lay out his Q’s with flashing lights, polyhedral dice, and/or politically offensive paraphernalia. Today; however, we decided to “wing it”. Quick BB for my many fan (singular intentional, thanks Mom for always hitting like button). Disclaimer/Warm …
UPDATED 10/6/21 with new time, now 8am-1pm. FREE T-shirt and $20 EGIFT card.

CONDITIONS Fall is here my friends and with it came 60-ish degree temps for what was the best weather day we’ve had in the #gloom since spring sprung on us about 6 months ago. ….that was an oddly erotic GIF. Anyway, as I was saying….the cooler weather and perhaps even the possibility of birthday cake …

Step 1: Watch this….(make sure the sound is on for full effect). Step 2: Read on…. It’s been a tough year, numbers are down, many of our brothers are hurt or are hurting, and apathy seems to have set in for some of us (no-one more than YHC at times). Have we forgotten what …

Upon arrival, everyone was wondering what the newly placed tent and orange cones came from.
