9 PAX, plus YHC, rolled into Foxhole this morning with their trusty rucks. What would it be? Arms? Shoulders? Legs. It would be legs. It wasn’t more leg workout than you could shake a stick at…no…a stick is stiff. It was enough leg workout to turn them into Ramen Noodles. Conditions: 60 degrees with a …
YHC saw Foxhole needed a Q and decided to step up and deliver a no rest beatdown to all takers. If you want to Q there are plenty of openings. Don’t make me keep thinking of harder ways to punish the pax. Conditions: chilly and clear The Thang: Warmup: 53 SSH 4 ct IC, 50 …

15 Pax rolled into the gloom at Foxhole for their monthly PT Test and a small pushup-fest with YHC. The only mumblechatter came from R2D2 this morning, but we all know that he is the only one who goes home after bootcamp and does more pushups. The Pax were none to excited about the combining …
Gentlemen: We are right at a month away from our GRC. If you aren’t training yet I feel for you. You have to get under Ruck. There is no substitution for that, and there are several options available to you in the Columbia/Lake Murray region, as well as some in the Florence area (see U-Haul). …
5 pax posted for a stair mania led by YHC. As I was scoping out the venue and prepping for the terribleness that was to come the FB field lights came on. At 5:45 in the morning this can seem a bit strange… After a sprint back to the COT I grabbed the pax and …

“This morning is going to suck.” If you want to get the anxiety filled, ulcer inducing juices of your PAX going at 0515, start your Q off with that statement.

Mosey from parking lot to lighted area near stadium and …
14 pax entered the gloom for a pinch hitter Q as the starter was pulled due to excessive use of his legs. YHC committed via the wrong Twitter feed believing it was for a different AO. Once corrected on both matters, YHC decided to bring in the big guns, the logs, to substitute for blocks from …
12 faithful and eager PAX rolled into #Foxhole this morning for a Pothole Pre-MudRun circuit beatdown.

The new AO at Dutch Fork High School was christened in the gloom of 9/16. 25 Pax chose to start their day with a little exploration of this new land in what some termed the sauna. What they found was not a walk in the park but a pain session of unknown adventure. The land …
