Weather – 45 and clear, moist field conditions as usual YHC thought a little Halloween theme was warranted on this fine day. Having just watched “It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” special with the kiddos, decided a classic bed sheet ghost would do nicely. For the Q, YHC brought along a few more bed sheets …

With an empty Q sheet, YHC took advantage to stretch out some of the muscles affected by Wilson’s IPC sneak attack Tuesday morning.

First, cobains for the late BB gentlePAX of Smokehouse. YHC had some other items to attend to yesterday and succumbed to late nap time a little early. Under the assumption, nay, the hope of an FNG, a bit simpler WO was laid out than what was initially planned. It wasn’t easier unless your calling Murph …
YHC had a plan to keep the pax dry. The forecast looked nasty but, much to my surprise, the rain held off until the final recover was called. This allowed for some nice jogging which we will get to a little later. The Q was changed 15 minutes before bootcamp started and, if I say …
YHC snagged the Q today expecting lots of rain. As usual the rain paused during the workout and gave us a chance to loop the school while putting in some work. 7-Elevens was the theme for the day. Frizzle got in solo miles. Cramps squeezed a couple SL miles in and managed to avoid most …
It was supposed to rain today, so YHC came up with something for both dry and rainy conditions. It was more of a mist, so YHC combined both. The suck factor was high with the humidity. The burpees and bear crawl added to it too. Good to see the guys at BeechHouse. It’s been a …
Strong numbers today at Bounty with half us doing the IPC and the other half getting faster. There looked to be a ton of Burpees being done at the IPC station. For the Bounty guys, somehow we got 4 miles which is a record for one of YHC’s workouts. Keep getting better, men! Great work, …
Coming off the GoRuck HTB in NYC, YHC knew he would be in recovery mode this weekend. Seeing that the Q sheet was open, I grabbed the lead today to make sure I got a chance to work out any sore muscles. I chose to do another run of the 52 card pick up routine …

YHC is feeling some FOMO about not being able to do the 9/11 Challenge this year, so he decided to incorporate it into a Weinke. This is an outstanding event and one that you should try to do if you can. The symbolism behind each exercise brings with it a sense of pride. Never Forget …
