It took 5 years of posting to F3 Columbia but one day about a month ago it finally happened. This phenomenon is probably common if you’re name is Chaser or Splinter. For YHC, it was not something to be expected. Gump had the Q at Thunder and busted out a workout YHC Q’d a few months earlier. YHC almost didn’t post that morning – yet another reason to avoid those demons that pull you back to sleep.
In the wake of the tragedy that struck Gump’s family this week YHC felt it appropriate to run this workout back one more time. For the 10 faithful in attendance, work was done.

- Great words from PaperBoy in the Devo this morning. The challenge is upon all of us to offer our support, thoughts, and prayers for the Fleischer family BEYOND this week. When everything quiets down, and the out of town family departs, and the church committees fade to the background it will be up to us to carry the family forward – to get Gump out to workouts. To move forward.
- Solid work this morning. This workout is a lot easier on December 7th.
Announcements
