YHC is a big fan of using weights during bootcamps. A mix of aerobic and anaerobic exercises is the best way to get your money’s worth IMHO. So per usual, blocks were used, and the lines of the parking lot were used as markers. Only this time, YHC wanted to try something different to keep us moving the whole time.

- #TClaps to the runners who skipped the bootcamp and ran 3-4 miles instead… though they could have stayed and gotten 2 miles… plus so much more!
- #TClaps again to the EC runners… gotta love all the miles being put up in WeFoCo!
- TO said the beatdown was horrible, so you know it was good!
- Bullwinkle texted and see he didn’t like me at the moment, so you know it was good!
- Schneider came through clutch with a speaker so we had something to take our mind off of the pain being endured.
- Wobegon was sad to miss a WIB at the Estate, and was only there hoping GinNJuice would be present.
- Bummed to later find out that @GinNJuice broke his toe and was unable to join us for this one. Hope he recovers and makes it out soon!
- YHC gave Huck some crap about lagging behind, he soon caught up and made YHC look bad.
- 60 minutes seemed unphased by his run and is definitely ready for a Spartan race or something crazy.
- Crash took a moment to reset his back, which didn’t seem good at first, and then next thing you knew he was flying along passing everyone. Way to listen to your body and give things a second, but seriously: what type of wizardry is this?! Perhaps a trick he learned from Cruiser?
Madoff missed the beatdown, but YHC had to miss his later that week at Alcatraz, so we called it even. The keys were left in the parking lot, along with TO and Bullwinkles crushed spirit.
