Leprechaun Hunt at The Yard
It was a dark start to the St. Patrick's Day, and upon arrival to the school there appeared to be some sort of overnight activity going on, so I needed to call an audible to work around the unanticipated changes, but it…

Identity and Purpose: Digging Deeper and Going Beyond
Though many said they would post, two brave Pax joined YHC for a cold, soggy morning launching Beyond from Flight Plan. Combined with the four runners for Flight Plan, we had seven in the Starbucks lot – the same number…

Shieldlock at Quagmire
The few Mondays I have not been DR lately most could find me logging a few miles for the impending P200 destruction. Pushups have been in shortsupply and even few posts to Quagmire or being a Q. GLOOM: The murky…

It's All About Perspective
It was awesome being back at Panteon. Wednesday is typically a DOR for YHC (day or rest, or day or run). But when it comes to exercise, the human body likes variance and change of routine. Definitely need to work on…

Ballet and Bear Crawls at Abyss
YHC was already planning to post to the Abyss and suffer the wrath of Wolverine, so when the flu knocked out the regenerating superhuman, it only made sense for a Jedi to step in and help. Plus, there were already…

First taste of The Tomahawk
Got my first taste of the many options that Tomahawk has to offer. Perhaps agreeing to Q the day after the Super Bowl wasn't the smartest thing YHC has ever done, but no one wants to disappoint the Pax. After taking a…

Taking it easy at the Golden Corral
After two Qs last week, YHC’s creativity was all but spent. Nevertheless, when Old Bay asked if I could fill in for Boeheim, I agreed to help. I still have that Twister spinner I made for a previous Q, so I already had…

No Rain At The Ballroom
I awoke to the sound of raindrops outside my window and mumbled a bit and got after it and I'm thankful eight other brothers decided to do the same. This morning was pretty simple but it resulted in a bit of…
