Lucky for me, GORUCK posts a Wednesday Workout, and this week’s looked pretty good. With four of us to get after it, we stepped off to go find a coupon for our ruck-less brother. Everyone pick up a pain stick at the parking deck. Everyone. [Read More]

The day had come: YHC’s F3-aversary – 365 days since stumbling out into the gloom at SNS and earning a new appreciation of the nuances of Bond Park.
