Staying Upside-Down at Pantheon
I’m heading off-grid for two to six weeks, so when the call went out from Fish Sticks on Tuesday asking for a sub Q for Pantheon, I hesitated then accepted the challenge. Seven showed up and a disclaimer heavy on…

100 Degrees of Suck
It was Wednesday and it was hot! Perfect time for my annual(?) Q at Run & Gun. Following a grueling itinerary of coast-to-coast travel over the prior 5 days, I was in deep need of a strong dose of 1st and 2nd F…

Run and Gunning on the court at Paradise
Our Wed Run and Gun numbers have been low for a while, and yesterday was no exception with a solo R&G. Help us out at R&G's on Wed's 1815...but this post is about more than that. After stopping at the Y until 1820…

The Mature Coop
20 High Impact Men, including two 2.0’s, took to the COOP today see what maturity was all about. With no FNG’s present and many friendly faces, the disclaimer was given and we were off. Mosey around the parking lot…

Tempo
It was a beautiful morning for a run. YHC decided to try the new, and still unopened new connector road to Walmart, then back to Trailhead park. Thanks to Zima for the map which showed a 5.2 mile loop(perfect)…

Merkins and more with plenty of Pax
It was a perfect morning to show up early to setup and prepare my beatdown for the Pax. Then it all quickly changed. Pax kept flowing in, one after another. 5, 10, 15, 25, 30 and on. We truly have something special…

Triple Lindys at the Abyss
YHC answered the call for Zima to Q at the Abyss. Having wanted but never been there, had to scout out the day before. Lots of open space at Palisades Park Elementary (and well lit). Ideas started popping in my head…

Passing the torch after poppers

More than 5 Alive with Panther pounding at The Deep
YHC apologizes to the 11 PAX at the Deep for the delayed backblast, but thanks them another opportunity to lead at a Lake Wylie AO. The PAX started arriving early on a brisk (never say cold) morning to get in a little…

Hey, Look at those Homeless Guys
I'm beginning to think there is a method to the madness of why we work out in the Gloom. Because we're not that pretty in the daylight. This was evidenced at the most recent installment of Run Ruck and Gun! Some of the…

Complain if you must, but do no NOT quit!!
14 PAX descended upon The Fort despite YHC being the Q today. Weather Conditions - hot and humid with 100% chance of PAIN. Board of Pain that is. FNG was present (thanks Bolt for the EH), so full disclaimer was given…

Suicide Circuits
Block Party definitely feels like home to YHC. I don't care what it smells like there sometimes, it's a great AO with lots of options. On this Tuesday morning, 10 pax gathered to tease out some pain to break us down and…

Run n Gun n Bleed

Run-n-Gun - Cake Boss stroll around the lake
9 PAX came to the VQ version of Run-n-Gun by Cake Boss. YHC has never posted to RnG and I thought I don't have the right to Q that gem, however I was on the list and my number was up, so I took it! It was my…

Simple Men- Keeping it Simple
Chances of rain at the Coop: 40%. Actual rain at the Coop: 0%. Be that as it may, 7 men with a desire to be better, or at least keep me company in the "rain", were ready for a challenge at 5:15am. No FNG's so onto the…

Officially Named: "The Yard" (and still exploring)
A Fantastic Five pax gathered in the FMMS parking lot with the goal of exercising their bodies and creative skills by the time the workout was over. Skinner wisely capitulated to CSPAN's cyber bullying and posted…
