The last time YHC Q’d at #TheOuthouse, it was in January 2017 and there were threats of snow – school may have even already been cancelled, but on that Monday morning in January at #TheOuthouse – there was no snow.

Fast forward to March 2018.  A similar scenario.  There was talk of the white stuff, but alas on this Monday morning – no snow (yet).  It was, however, a cool, wet morning – probably one of the cooler and wetter in awhile.  The threat of the biggest snow storm EVER was looming over our heads.

This morning, at #TheOuthouse, 5 brave, strong pax dug deep, found their inner-warrior and did far more than just withstand the storm… they became the storm!

COT/BOM

YHC took us out – giving thanks and praise for F3 and the encouragement we provide each other; praise for @Balco’s run; and asking for Him to watch over families as they may have to juggle schedules given the school cancellation, and watch over those traveling in any precarious weather.

NMM

  • Not a ton of mumblechatter, but quite a bit of groans early on – in Warm-O-Rama… when our shoulders were screaming.
  • Had to call Derkins a little short – or else eat pavement.  Know your limits.
  • YHC was honored to have @InkSpot compliment the beatdown.  Strong words coming from a beast like @InkSpot!  Seriously, that guy is a true warrior – love working out with him.
  • Despite the rain, the pax somehow dodged the raindrops and remained relatively dry – without just staying under a single shelter.  #QHumbleBrag
  • @TR was watching Lady and the Tramp on the way in this morning.  Seriously.  Getting his game-face on.
  • @Balco smoked his 5K this past weekend… definitely #Broke20!  T-Claps!!!
    #Break20 #Breaking20 #BreakSomething #TrustTheProcess
  • Thanks for the keys @Redeye… always an honor to lead!
