During the CSAUP, Alamo got pooped on for “just being a parking lot” so I was set on showing that Alamo has a softer, gentler, more delicate side once you really get to know it. Today the pax got to experience the tranquil embrace of nature as we made our way to the serene views of the reservoir… And were met with two piles of coupons to remind us that our @$$ was Grass today! Nancy reminded YHC we start at 5:30 but I didn’t want to leave the downrange (and 12 year F3 Veteran, Guinness) in the dust. 20…
Attila & Seymore joined me this morning for some sweaty fun. Not sure where our Goochland & Pork friends were this morning and Attila also felt lonely without his headband brothers. But that’s ok, it’s better in a Deep three-way. We warmed up our bodies in the parking lot then went exploring in Greengate. Took a left at the Adirondack chairs and did a triple check of HRM, Jump Squats and a ~50 yard run and back. Then we took a left and found our way back to the Bridge to Nowhere. Did some bear crawls or crawl bears down…

15 strong came out on the first Saturday in June. It was a muggy 70 and sunny but that didn’t stop these HIM from putting in some work. Started with a mosey to the next parking lot with a resistance band in hand, everyone wondering what I had in store for them. YHC got started with the warmarama SSH, Don Quyotes, Imperial Walkers, Ukrainian Soldiers and 41 LBCs In Cadence. Indigenous People’s Band on the Run PAX moseys around the parking lots doing Moroccan Night Clubs, Arm Circles, and Raise the Roof while they get to take turns doing banded…
A record 213 men formed up at 6 a.m. for the latest edition of The Dogpile (officially a pop-up stop on the Summer Tour). Temperatures were 70 and sunny. With UpChuck’s 9th Anniversary on offer, the PAX were treated to a menage of many YHC’s favorite Q’s from other PAX members over the years. To start, the PAX were given two choices: 1 hour of pain (beatdown) or 100 miles of pain (ride). 13 choose the beat down, and one (Florence) was FIFO (first-in, first-out, in his PC). Sorry to miss you, my brother. 200 chose the ride. According to…

Seven gloom warriors shattered any remnant of lazy Saturday vibes by packing out heavy steel weights and speed rucking a few miles around Rockwoods Park in preparation for Big Rig’s birthday Q. Great to meet Cavity Search and share some missionary adventure stories. Gos is good all the time! Yours AYE, DTH
