But hey, at least there were no shot puts involved! As sometimes is the case, the most amusing part of the beatdown happened in the first few minutes, as Jose entertained us with tales of being a track coach. Coach 10k has got some stories, and it dawned on me …
Mild, foggy gloom this Saturday as 10 took the red pill for Grants Tomb. In honor of Ulysses S. Grant, our 18th president who adorns the $50 bill, we would mosey around doing 50 reps up and down the Lakefront. Fun Fact: Grant was invited to Ford’s Theater by President …

Taking the final beatdown of 2024, you had to know YHC would incorporate some type of relation to numbers.. And while I did learn there were 2 square roots to 25 thanks to our very own math genius Jose10k. I still stayed with my basic mathematics and picked 24 and …
Warm-up:ssh, grass grabbers, torso twists, imperial walkers, self love (all to Christmas Time in Hollis Queens). Where the first trivia question, who was John McClain’s limo driver?
