“J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a genuine masterpiece. The most widely read and influential fantasy epic of all time, it is also quite simply one of the most memorable and beloved tales ever told…”

Ok… YHC can’t possibly live up to this quote above, and this isn’t a CSAUP, but will do my best to make my trilogy of Q’s this weekend unfathomably painful quite enjoyable for those PAX in town this President’s Day Weekend and can post.  As an added incentive, for all A51/SOB PAX completing of all three workouts, YHC will buy your breakfast at Einstein Bagel (future Saturday after Stonehenge 2nd F) OR your beverages at the next 2nd F A51/SOB Event.  #notworried #moneyissafe #allyoulightweights

***YHC Soapbox: at least once in your F3 fitness careers, YHC firmly believes all PAX in Charlotte should post at The Muthaship (picture below).  It’s the 12 story parking deck directly across from Time Warner Cable Arena, home of the legendary dizzyback spiral which A51’s Frasier once held the F3 record for trips up and down at 17 (broken last week by Bunny with 18 trips). It’s where some of Charlotte’s best runners and athletes from all AOs, not just Metro, converge each Monday for the ultimate mental and physical test for an entire 60 minutes. It’s where you will see A51 Mr. Brady fly up 12 flights of stairs like a high-speed escalator, and Ice9 spill merlot in no more than 10 minutes pushing his body to the extreme.  It’s where MECA’s SS Minnow at 60yrs+ drinks from the fountain of youth, and shows age is just a number, as he bests men less than half his age.  It’s where you will see Frasier push Metro’s finest Bunny, Cindy, Foul Ball, Swamp Fox, and others to their limits.  It’s you versus you in the ultimate arena… The Muthaship. The word is out to MECA, The Fort, Harrisburg, A51, SOB/IL … be there and see what you are made of.***
