The chilliest morning yet (that YHC has posted for) didn’t scare 19 Pax away. YHC was thankful to be the Q for the day, otherwise YHC would have been fartsacking. YHC knew that 8 Pax would double down and immediately conduct a 5k ruck, so YHC graciously planned a Q

No More Curse
Today’s workout was dedicated to celebrating the Cubbies and honoring their long-suffering fans. Fittingly, some of the Pax and (especially) Q Slugger showed up bleary-eyed after a long night of awaiting the outcome of the Greatest World Series Game Ever.™ Nothing like an early morning workout to shake those cobwebs
Post-Halloween Variety Show
YHC thought a little fun after a night of trick or treating was in order, so we had a Halloween party /Variety Show (or whatever you want to call it) with music, frights, and candy. Disclaimer Prayer COP SSH x15 IC TTT x10 IC DQ x10 IC IW x10 IC

You’d think the JC Pax would have learned by now that when Donatello sends out an email and asks for Q’s—someone needs to respond. This day was particularly challenging, given YHC was hobbled coming off a 10K OCR on Sunday. Appearantly jumping from a 9-10 foot embankment into grass (which did
Straight up Loopy!! or “Lovin’ the Loop!!”
