12 HIMs graciously posted for my Virgin-Q in full knowledge that it would likely be an absolute shambles. I had to do something British-themed for my first ever Q so, with it being the day of the London Sevens which is an annual rugby sevens tournament, I decided to do …
13 for the Memorial Day Murph at the Milestone Marsh. Mumblechatter was strong and the weather was stifling hot, muggy, and brutal. PAX: Speedy Gonzalez, Bird, The Hammer, Parrot, Zoolander, Steve, Shooter, Tanked Up!, The Manny, Chewy, Jose 10k, TruCoat, Akbar Warm Ups: SSH, Self-Love, Arm Circles, Grass Grabbers, Windmills, …
Mid day text from Whacker alerted YHC that rain was in the forecast. Even when there is an 80% chance of rain, there is an 80% chance that it won’t rain. Last minute change to the Marsh was necessary. We finished the original workout in 30 minutes, which is the …
17 showed up today to a warm 61 degrees, the first real sweat in the past few months (except for Russo). Tiga showed up from a recent beatdown in Austin where he was named, jumping right into the fold like he’d been here a year. A surprise comeback from Captain …
45ish and wet as all get out, a slight modification was needed for this gloom. YHC can handle wet or cold, but not both. So instead of sloshing at the Shaft, we headed to Noah’s Ark for Grant’s Tomb. Ulysses S. Grant’s mug adorns our $50 bill, so we moseyed …
The third installment of Flicker ball on the North Shore’s lakefront pitch was a battle to the end. After a short warmup of core exercises and a push-up medley that included gorillas and spidermans, the group divided into two teams of 8 based on age. Once again the Juniors versus …

9 men showed up to get better this dark gloom for the annual Merkin Trap. It was so dark YHC was worried about seeing the Wiki if needed. But this has been done before, and besides making some cadence mistakes, went well with no Wiki needed. Conditions: near perfect, a …
Pax of 19 (including special guests like Paul Skenes, Creepy Baby, Green Alien, Bear Bird, Spider Man, and the Dude) for a scary good time this morning YHC referred to as the Northshore Monster Mash, with weather in the upper 60s and the sun finally appearing midway through. Warmup 10x-15x …
MUCH better weather all of a sudden today for a split beatdown. YHC, who is hot and sweaty when it’s a December morning, might even call is “mildly pleasant”. Up is down. Down is up. Cats and dogs living together. REGARDLESS, what a blessing some relief from the oppressive heat …
