YHC had always heard that the mumble chatter game at Ambush was stronger than quite strong. Having only posted on one other occasion and having gotten to know a few of the PAX a little better over the years, YHC knew he was going to get some form of entertainment, and the HIM of Ambush didn’t disappoint.
The friendly rivalry between Surge and Ambush is always a source for untapped mumble chatter and today it was confirmed that Zamboni does exist and not just in race competition (although knowing the wit of the men of Ambush, they could have just as well hired him for the day knowing a Surge PAX was coming in to guest Q. I digress). Regardless a great group of men, ones I’d want on my side in a street fight, welcomed YHC for the Q this morning.
What had happened was……

Mosey to the Block pile
Knowing that Ambush has a very strong presence during Stride Lite, YHC didn’t want to overwork them as I was sure that they must have been tired from all that running. So we engaged in a tabata style workout and told stories of yesterday, which included but weren’t limited to Saluda Sheriffs breaking up fights, feces-eating dogs, and frozen hot dogs and air condition units.
