When Sprockets asked YHC to Q Hydra, YHC didn’t pay much attention to the calendar but then upon closer consideration, realized that this was a week away from YHC’s 6 year anniversary of joining F3. Figure why not make it the “early” 6th anniversary. Thanks Men for taking the time to come and join YHC in celebrating 6 years. It has truly been a great and life changing 6 years too. YHC is very thankful for all my F3 brothers, old and new and the significant impacts they have had on making YHC the person he is today. YHC looks forward to many more years.
Solid basic old school meat and potatoes workout this am. Escalator is no joke and leaves a mark. A grind from beginning to end. For those keeping score, it was 125 of all called exercises and approximately 400 yards of AYG. And everyone was crushing it and pushing themselves. YHC still needs to come up with a workout that might actually make Sprockets work – #machine
Sprockets and Gummy, thanks for the opportunity to lead. Hops, thanks for the takeout. Pax – thanks for following YHC around this am and thanks F3 Nation for the impact made no only in YHC’s life but every man that defeats the fartsack daily to make it out into the gloom. SYITG!

Something about a beer run sometime soon, somewhere close – if you are participating, you don’t need to ask.
YHC sucks and figuring out the formatting on this BB platform
