YHC woke up to the sound of a downpour hitting the roof and had a brief moment of regret for signing up to Q this morning. In fact, after the usual morning pre-BC routine, the M said, “You know it’s pouring, right?” and then she said, “You have the Q, don’t you?” Gosh, she is so smart. YHC slightly hoped that maybe no one else would show but YHC knew better. No amount of rain, snow , or sleet can keep the Fury regulars away as Inspector and Crayola were waiting for YHC in their vehicles. And shortly thereafter Foreclosure, Chipper, and Weaver joined the party.

What a beautiful morning in the gloom. YHC was hoping to get a little bit of running in but the rain never let up. It poured the entire BC. Thankfully we had some alternative tunes from Crayola and a bright arse light from Foreclosure.
Beano shared this workout yesterday on our D2D text thread and YHC was intrigued by the different movements, so we gave it a whirl. YHC hopes the PAX that braved the elements enjoyed the slight change in pace and variety.
YHC was looking for a relatively leg friendly workout since YHC was weak and caved into peer pressure and is running a half marathon on Saturday. YHC hopes this wasn’t the last you ever hear from him. If so, YHC isn’t sure who the vice-nantan is but he needs to be ready.
Until next time,
