Some posted at 6:30 and ran 10, some posted at 7:00 and ran 7ish +/- Some ran on two legs, some ran on four. Some ran in silence, some ran with YHC. All were better off for having done it. Make it a great week!
2 arrived early and 1 warm up and appeared at exactly 05:30, only to have trouble finding the PAX. Temps were 70 and sunny. The PAX were hiding. It was childish. It was kinda fun. YHC apologizes. 1.5 out. 1.2 back. Short and sweet prior to the BRR. Numbers, names, YHC took us out.

Nine WARRIORS came out in what couldn’t be a more perfect morning to join YHC in just his second Q, including an evacuee from NOLA that has posted over 270 times this year in the deep south. Shout out to Hokie! After a few vets admitted to taking the day off due to college football kickoff, YHC thought it best to step back up and give another run to lead the PAX. After a few months in the gloom and feeling better about the process, we put on a team based beatdown honoring our brothers and sisters that gave the…
