Q-School at Turning Point

16 Pax beat the tardy bell to attend Q-school in the gloom of Turning Point this morning. YHC loves doing Q school because it is an opportunity to give back and pass on the lessons learned over the years. It also serves as a great reminder of all the small things that YHC typically leaves out of the workout that should be included.

 

The Weather: a nice cool 66! almost felt like mountain weather
