Skin of the Mole

YHC really appreciates the men that made it out this morning to help celebrate.  You (and others not present) have made YHC stronger over the past year and have pushed YHC far beyond where YHC thought possible.  Not only that but the memories and friendships made in just one short year are priceless.  YHC can’t thank you guys enough for the positive and lasting impact that you’ve had on YHC’s family.

Mario was strong as ever this morning, leading the way on Suicidehorn and the dreaded ascending curb crawl.  Brisket, Bucky, Mic Check and Wild Turkey helped push the pace on Suicidehorn.  Well done, men.  Great to see Busboy after a year-long layoff.  Keep posting.  Congratulations to those that gutted through all 366 merkins that were deviously called this morning.  YHC wasn’t sure we’d have enough time to get them all in but we kept the pace moving and got them done, just under the wire.  It wasn’t fun and it wasn’t pretty, but at least it’s over and we’re sharper.
