Baseball at Boneyard

This was YHC’s first time out to Boneyard.  At the Christmas party a few weeks back, DirtyBird said he would come Q Ambush if YHC would come Q Boneyard.    Challenge accepted.  After suffering through a DirtyBird Q on Tuesday YHC knew that he had to bring it this morning.  The men worked hard it …

Classics

Classics are classics for a reason. Prepping for the Saluda launch has the snakes swirling and feeling a little nostalgic. YHC decided to test drive for timing purposes some of the old classics like the Ark Loader and The Beast. Simple yet effective. Tclaps to the 9 men of The Shank who took the Daily …

#CAT5 with a new wrinkle

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

Here’s what went down. ***Conditions: 31 degrees and windy. Gloomy ***Disclaimer and prayer ***Crank …

The Quiet AO Boot Camp

YHC enjoyed his time today leading the quietest AO in Lexington. This is quite a departure from the mumblechatter at Shawshank, so it took some getting used to, to say the least. Were the PAX bored? Probably, YHC isn’t very creative, but did his best to get them talking. There is something to be said …
