Moleskin:
Not much mumblechatter from the pax today. They were probably hoping YHC was joking about the volume of 2H swings that were on the agenda. It wasn’t a joke.
TR was alternating his swings with two different kettlebells. YHC would have called him out for sandbagging but both the bells were probably 50+ pounds.
On a personal note, exactly a year ago today YHC made my first post at Base Camp. I was given the choice of being named Mighty Mite or Pop Warner based on my history of playing little league at South Charlotte’s athletic fields The most difficult part about that day(besides the workout) was waking up at 4:45 to make the “long” drive to South Charlotte Middle School. Luckily, there is now a Monday workout across the street from my house. Whether I was carrying a log down Park Road at 3 AM, contributing to the worst smelling van in history during the BRR, or just growing stronger with my brothers at many of Area 51’s workouts, I have a lot of great F3 memories from the last year. YHC has met a lot of great people that I’m now happy to call my friends(even though they all tell me how much they hate hate me every morning) and I’m looking forward to some even better times in the years to come. Aye!
