YHC received a text last week asking if I could Sub Q for Polly, who has been nursing a bad back for a couple of weeks. YHC jumped at the opportunity to Q, after what seems like forever since my last boot camp Q. Definitely, the first time in awhile there was no BRR looming over the pax. That being said, YHC wanted to take this boot camp back to one of the core locations of what the Epicenter has to offer. That meant a return to Polly’s favorite spot….HeartBreak Hill. No restrictions on taking it easy on the legs……just full body #Beatdown. 8 pax would break free from the #Fartsack and embark on this journey.

#Mumblechatter was minimal due to work being done but encouragement could be heard all over the Epicenter. Polly was even rather reserved and quiet this day.
Kobayashi posted for an FNG who did not show and cussed me the rest of the boot camp. He is probably taking a nap right now. I even threw in planks in areas of the #beatdown but it could not lift his spirits.
Cold Feet posted for a Meatloaf Q but was stuck with the Floss. He said I still had a good Q which made me feel a little better!
Meter Maid (in his first couple of days as 1st F Q) joined us at the Epicenter. Polly was of course quick to welcome him and YHC to the Epicenter as only he can.
Roach had to make a return trip to his house but got the Shovel Flag to its rightful location with a couple of minutes to spare!
#tclaps to Polly and Woddpecker for posting anyway despite nursing injuries. Way to keep pushing fellas!
Judge Hairy continues to amaze and push that rock. JH keep it going man! You are an inspiration to all of us!
That’s all I got……well done fellas. You guys all pushed that rock today! Keep up the good work! It was an honor to be your Q. #tclaps
