Recruiting is an ugly business
After a 48 hour recruiting blitz to increase numbers at Fury, YHC was anxious to see the turnout Saturday morning. Boy George and Spud were present when I pulled up, but no one was else was to be seen. Had my efforts been in vain? Luckily, I checked my twitter feed and noticed that my […]
CoffeeRuns
YHC had the Q on Wednesday and is ashamed to admit that I blew it as far as Backblasts go. I have no excuse, other than the busyness that affects us all. I’ll try to do better next time. 29 Pax assembled on a warm Wednesday for a variety of 5k, 8k, and 10k+ runs, […]
SSG Keith Matthew “Matt” Maupin
Another RED Friday is here and 12 Pax have chosen to honor the memory of SSG Matt Maupin with a “new to #theWood” Hero WOD. Read his bio here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Iraq_KBR_convoy_ambush 84* misting and super muggy Disclaimer (actually, i don’t think this happened) RED Friday’s are, in YHC’s opinion, the toughest workouts offered in #theWood.

Hop n Pop
It was a Wednesday…I remember it clearly like it was yesterday even though it was 2 (two) days ago…I offer no excuses nor apologies as life gets chaotic….I did however, 2 days ago, offer the disclaimer and a new route from Clovers Corner…I for one was a little worn out from the hills of the […]
It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity!
Conditions: 75* and MUGGY! I could feel the thickness of the air when I stepped out of the house this morning to let out the new puppy, and I knew that today’s #HillsAreAlive run would be a tough one. Everyone pushed through the thickness of the air and worked hard to overcome the hills today. […]
I’ve got 1100 Reps but running ain’t one of them!
With all the BRR training going on and most pax either increasing mileage or nursing injuries due to increased milage, YHC thought a WOD with no running was a great option. So what do you do to get a solid workout when no running is involved? How about the 1100 rep workout that Sugar concocted […]

Flying the Hindenburg
YHC has had the pleasure of posting to workouts with BLIMPS in the past and recently punched the passport at #GideonsHouse up in F3SwampRabbit where we built 10 BLIMPS. That was pretty #Turrible. Then YHC discovered the Hindenburg BLIMPS while randomly perusing the Lexicon and Exicon. YHC highly recommends this as it can be both […]
FountainHead OnB or some variety of that……..
14 pax got the led out and ran the #FountainHead OnB! This run has turned into anything but an OnB. As stated last week, pax go everywhere. Mill Village, 10K Course, OnB. Pax are everywhere! The main thing is the pax are out running. They are hitting some hills, going farther or faster on the […]
