Why two Flags: well, YHC brought one to use because YHC didn’t think Strange Brew would be there. Then Brew pulls up and plants his. Something about his race being cancelled due to a flooded trail. Obviously not a F3 sponsored event.
Great effort by all today. YHC was told that it was on the high end of moderate intensity. Sorry about that if it was too much. YHC did advise to modify, modify if needed.
T-claps to FNG (Ram) now known as IPA, who was EH’d by Strange Brew. Way to hang in there. We hope to keep seeing you out in the gloom.
This was YHC’s first post to Ascent but I have been to OP before at Hydra. So, YHC thought we’d do a tour of the campus to see all that the site has to offer. The neighborhood hill was a crowd pleaser for sure. Perhaps 6x on the hill was a little aggressive. Audible, except for Hopper and Slimfast, who did 7x, I think. Strong!
Soccer ball provided a great little addition at the end since we had 10 mins left and the wienke was empty. That field was sloppy, good stuff.
Thanks for allowing me to lead Ascent. It was a true pleasure to serve you good men.
