Has anyone seen Tickle?
YHC was justifiably (based on my recent track record) called out on Twitter last night by Tickle as to whether the Q was going to show up to the workout. YHC was there, but Tickle must’ve gotten too deep into his new double IPA brew to set his alarm. Four other pax showed up on […]

The Fantastic Four got better, not sure about anyone else?
YHC told Smalls on the drive to the Epicenter that it just might be the two of them this morning because Twitter was mighty quiet on Friday night.

Sgt. Rahul Kumar
YHC was looking for a REDFriday WOD with merkins but didn’t want to do Capoot. YHC remembered F3PizzaMan posting this on his Strava a couple of weeks ago and saw that there was 200 merkins and 80 burpees in it and it fit the bill. 7 other men answered the call to honor Sgt. Rahul […]

Just a couple of Merkins
It’s the first day of November’s Merkin Challenge. 16,000 Merkins in 30 days. I knew the PAX needed a little boost in their numbers, so I tried to offer up as many Merkins as I could within a workout (well, without just totally blowing everyone’s shoulders). I learned later that we actually need 533 points […]
