Double Indian Runs

Pre-Thang It’s December and the temperature at 5:30am is hovering around the low to mid 50’s.  It was time to break out a long sleeve shirt today.  Shorty showed up decked out in full sweats and explained how he doesn’t do cold very well.  Somehow he just doesn’t sweat…must be …

No Flags, One Ball

No flags in the city or apparently in the rocky outskirts this morning. The uptown PAX instead turned their attention to a medicine ball resting in the circle. After a brief disclaimer, we moseyed to the bandstand. Luckily the intimidating, statuesque figure from last week was no where to be …

The PAX made a short mosey across the street for a Circle of …

Mondays at the Cage

Six men started the week off right by gathering at the birdcage this morning. This marked the first Monday at the cage and a split from the guys who like rocks a little too much. Much to YHC’s surprise, our good friends at Audubon upgraded all the workout stations along the …
