YHC has gotten accustomed to Q’ing at least one workout a week and really focusing on spreading the wealth between the three T/Th AOs. This week it was time for Talon to cash in.
Conditions: Cold, not quite Omaha cold, but dang cold for Greenwood. Wet, as in it rained all day and night prior to the designated gloom time. Windy, the wind hit as we opened our car doors and forced us to embrace the environment from the first seconds of exposure. Thankfully the Lord blessed us with a #BlindMelon morning by pausing the rain from 0500 – 0605. BenGay’s statement about the gloom misses the downpour more times than not proved wise once again.
Disclaimer: Given as we carried our blocks to the picnic area. However, with only two wily F3 vets that have been posting for the better part of 5 years it was really unnecessary.
Attire: UA thermal leggings, shorts, thermal top, longsleeved top, shortsleeved top, blue white gloves, and my trusty beanie.
Tunes: Spotify Rage Against the Machine radio

Due to the conditions and the lack of contestants on the Grand Prize Game, YHC decided that we would knockout each exercise together before moving on to the next volley of hatred.

Devotional: YHC has made a Lent commitment to a daily devotional trying to get right with the SkyQ. Today’s required more detail and than what was allotted so we went with what the Nantan put out on Monday.
Romans 12:2 – Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is, His good, pleasing and perfect will.
By simply doing what we do in the gloom we are anticonformist to our society, especially on such a lovely morning. The 2nd part of that 1st sentence is where I focused my words. By actively seeking out the small simple blessings that He has bestowed upon us, shoes on our feet, roof over our heads, warm blankets, running water, heated homes, etc. we can be transformed with a renewed mind.

DC hit me up the night prior and was wondering the potential of being able to post but also socially distance himself considering that he’s had the KungFlu for the entire year. My response was quick to invite and assure that we would make every effort to provide him with the necessary elbow room and focus on trying to stay dry. He was the only car in the lot when I pulled in. I sure am glad he posted, because it allowed me a breather after every exercise waiting on his sickly out of shape carcass to payup all of his reps. The dude’s a stud to even try to workout with his ailments, but in all actuality, he’s a shell of his IPC 3 self. There is no doubt that this is only momentary and that he will once again be leading the charge into the darkness.
Tickle claimed that he had no intentions of posting this moring, and further more really didn’t want to be there. That was confusing to me, because he once again plowed through the work without pause or sweat. The latter may have been more a result of the atmospheric conditions, but YHC doubts seriously doubts it. He continues to post and perform at a high level day after day.
YHC is dang sure glad that these two men posted! A quick UTurn and retreat back to mi casa was what was on the forefront of my thoughts on the drive there. After the burpees, it was apparent that the best possible outcome was what was occurring. It was an honor.
