YHC hasn’t Q’d at Bounty in a while and has not been doing much in terms of speed workouts lately, so today was fairly tough. The Bounty men put in some good work and kept the pace at a high speed. They seemed to enjoy the return of some stair work, which is always a …
Turning Point Boot Camp 12/10 Weather: 43 degrees and slight breezy. YHC was expecting an FNG who has been work in progress for several years, but this morning was different as the FNG promised he would be there….. but never showed. 5 AM start time is a tough pill to swallow when you’re not used …
We were due for another round of Gut Punch Saturday so we made it happen. 7 PAX showed in the chilly morning to get things done. Argyle was the loner Ruck-lighter. Cinco made his first Saturday workout. Although he couldn’t remember his name at first, Bundy made his second workout. YHC and Bundy opted for …
x 12 Hammerheads came out to shuffle around the ponderosa this fine day (note, despite 6 years of friendship, I never knew how Pondo got his name. Turns out it is from the Presbyterian College version of the Walk of Shame. Wow!). It’s Friday, so that means a flat-ish fast-ish 5K followed by #TBCIF3N. Conditions: …
Conditions: Low 30’s 13 PAX put in some work at Hammer. We covered about 1.5 miles with various work along the way. The Thang Disclaimer Warm-up > 15 X through the tunnel IC, 15 X raise the roof, 15 X SSH IC Mosey to end of Gamewell > Merkin Pyramid, OYO 20 at the top, …
Today, we did a modification of “The 12 Days of Christmas” song at Surge. This is the third time we have done this and has become somewhat of a tradition. Disclaimer, No FNGs, Prayer Mosey to the side of the cafeteria.SSH x 12TTT x 12OH Clap x 12 Grab blocks, and line up on the …
Today was YHC’s last day as AOQ of The Hollow. Like I said in the COT, being the AOQ was a little bit of work and a whole lot of fun. This stems from the fact that the PAX that post there are really great guys who get after it, day in and day out, …
It was a beautiful, clear morning at Shawshank. Constellations were bountiful, the air was crisp, and the fellowship was off the charts. Some of the finest men around showed up, pushed each other to get better, and provided some support for a 5 year old boy who is putting up the good fight. 4 pax …
Conditions warmer than usual 37 degrees on the fields of Depot 13 pax showed up for YHC’s “Respect Q”. Ol’ Stagey hadn’t led in a while and had a little “pre-game jitters” before the start. (Notice 3rd party reference there. Cool kids do that…or is it DBs?) Anyway, YHC was just happy no #TummyTroubles came …
One thing you can count on is mumble chatter at Shawshank. YHC is guilty of it too, so it stands to reason that when the PAX get the chance, they are going to let him have it. YHC wouldn’t have it any other way. Thanks for the accountability and brotherhood, men! Here’s how it went …
