Overtime, the parking lot has slowly gone down hill; with parked tractor trailers, lots of garbage, no lighting, rough asphalt, and construction fencing. So it was a sad realization that YHC would have to find a new spot to Q\u2026 allllll the way on the opposite side of the mall at the old Macy\u2019s (now known as the Truliant Operations Center)! The format of the Craftsman was simple, and the Macy is mostly the same, only with one slight new twist &#8211; the \u201cY\u201d loop:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Warm-o-rama\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mission Statement \/ Core Principles!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SSH x 24 IC<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mosey to start loop<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>The Thang<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Macy\u201d<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run around the approximate \u00bc loop stopping at each station for 8, 16, 24 reps.\u00a0<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 1: <\/span><b>M<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ike Tysons x 8 OYO<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 2: <\/span><b>A<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">merican Hammers x 8 OYO<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 3: <\/span><b>C<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">arolina Drydocks x 8 OYO<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeat loop and stations 1-3 with 16 reps<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeat loop and stations 1-3 with 24 reps.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run the \u201cY lap\u201d (pronounced \u201cWWwHHHhYYYyyY!?\u201d)<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 1: Burpees x 8 OYO<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 2: Burpees x 16 OYO<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Station 3: Bear Crawl x 24 Parking spaces<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeato<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Return to start<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Mary<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No time!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fin!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>CoT<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prayers for safety from the coming rain<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prayers for safe travel and safe weekend for Ragnar Runners<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>NMM<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">We completed 8 laps, which registered as 2.5 miles on YHCs Apple Watch, completing 96 Mike Tysons, 96 American Hammers, 96 Carolina Dry Docks, and 48 Burpees, along with Bear Crawling 48 spaces.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Somewhat inspired by the coming weekend for our Ragnar runners, YHC decided to stick to the plan and fully embrace the 3rd Core Principle.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The decision to not meet in a parking deck was met with Disappointment by some and Excitement by others.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Posting in the rain can be a lot more fun when it\u2019s expected and you plan ahea<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When YHC first planned The Macy, it was before \u201cThe Debby\u201d was on our radar. We incremented by 8s to reflect the date, up to 24 to reflect the year, at 3 stations with excersizes starting with M, A, and C.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u201ctwist\u201d on the Craftsman format was the \u201cY lap\u201d (pronounced \u201cWWwHHHhYYYyyY!?\u201d). Supposed to be an integrated nutpunch-esque lap that the PAX don\u2019t look forward to doing, but are proud to have done that really difficult thing later.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We got through two entry 4-loop cycles, ending perfectly at 06:15:50 (still on time). Note: to save shoulder, for the second Y loop, the option of running to finish and doing 24 burpees instead of the long bear crawl. Rubber Ducky and Pollster chose this option. Dr. Toot and YHC went for a second bear crawl.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This morning was an absolute blast. Of course Rubber Ducky was there, but relative new guy Pollster was there, and WIB\u2019s resident War Daddy (and Site Q) Dr. Toot posted as well!!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This group made for a great dynamic, still small enough for great conversation, but big enough to push and encourage each other without it feeling awkward. Kidding, YHC never feels awkward.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pollster saw the preblast map and said he just had to post &#8211; taking note to lure other future new guys\u2026<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pollster is a self proclaimed runner, so YHC was happy to help him lose the Soccer arms. He did well through all the upper body, and was constantly pushing ahead, completely unaffected by the rain.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Toot called the weather nice, and we both agreed that if it was 33 degrees it would be the worst weather imaginable (just like YHCs first Red Line Q 8 years ago\u2026)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rubber Ducky was glad he was able to get home from a work trip early so he could post this morning. He was there with \u201cBells On\u201d, and said even though he went to bed at Midnight, woke up and arrived 20 minutes early from the excitement of a MOIST beatdown.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">YHC wore a swimsuit and water shoes with socks. Only thing missing was Goggles, but the hat did just fine blocking rain from the eyes. An old pair of shoes probably would have been better, but it was fun to try.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Burpees near the corner drain were easily in 2 inches of water, and rain ebbed between sprinkling to moderate with the occasional 15 mph gust of wind.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overall, a fantastic morning.
