Don’t call it a comeback

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 crowd pleaser.  Thanks for the push today, men!

DEVO:

YHC had the honor of collecting funds for the Salvation Army this weekend.  It’s amazing some of the stories that you hear on how the Salvation Army has helped people.  One lady spoke about how the organization helped her father after WWII to rehab his war injury and PTSD before that was even a thing.  Another lady in a wheelchair gave cash and asked how she could give more.  “Is there a Mission around here?”  “Why, yes ma’am, there certainly is!”  YHC saw the good side of people this weekend.  It made him realize, with all the bad we hear about on the news, there is also a lot of good.  YHC believes that there is much more good than bad out there.
