YHC rolled in around 0500 to do some Pre Yoga and such and noticed Red Skull frantically getting the mud ready. Apparently, the auto start hadn’t been affected by the time change yet and needed some attention. The 413 guys slowly started making there way out to the smoking lounge, er picnic tables as YHC, Porcelain et al regaled them with tales of pain.
0530 Time to Circle up for Disclaimer and the beginning to what would be a Primer on the Weight v Wait homonym of a Q.
As we circled up YHC called out 8 Count Body Builders to start so the explanation of the W v. W concept could be laid out. Twist was that the “wait” on the 8 Count Body Builders was at #3, the down portion of the Merkin. That got pretty old, pretty quick and the weight of our bodies soon set in. Nevertheless, we pushed through to 13, grabbed both shovel flags and headed out.
Partner Up one F3er w one 413er and we’re off. Mosey’d it about .20 miles out from the StartEx and circled up across from the STEM graffiti wall for

PAX break off in to two groups for a Partner IR…YHC wasn’t clear on the turning point so Bad Boy’s group went for a bit longer IR…that was ok because YHCs group got to work on their Plank Progression.
We had just enough time at the end for a Primer on the MARSOC Short Card…found a way to get the military in this one after all.

RII 30 Merkins, 30 Flutter Kix IC, 10 Burpees, 10 Cherry Pickers
TIME
NMM: YHC must admit, that wasn’t as much of a Woggler as YHC had intended but it probably was a good intro into F3 for the 413 guys. I really love the Weight v Wait idea and think it works well not just when we are with the 413 guys but in our everyday. Paul talks about it in his second letter to the Corinthians, as the “seen v the unseen”. Anyway, great work this AM and YHC looks forward to many more bruisers at The Stronghold with the HIM in training.
BH: 12th Man lunch tomorrow. $20 at Richland CC. We are in a different room tomorrow so just be sure to have Situational Awareness.
East Side looking to get an AO up and running. Hit up Bro @ Law for details but be aware, it is still early in the gestation period.
Three more days for IronClad Double Glove edition, if you are like YHC probably a good time to start tallying your posts and such.
YHC,
