A strong showing of 22 came out for Day 1 of YHC’s Farewell Tour at Highlands, as I say goodbye to this wonderful place before heading back west to Texas. A disclaimer was given of the presence of an FNG was noted, before we moseyed over to the RRMS parking lot for… Warmarama (IC) SSH […]

Lakeside Pearls on a String
16 men braved YHC’s warning that headlamps might be needed — or maybe they ignored it? — and posted to kick-off Tuesday right. A solid disclaimer was posted, a grand total of 4 (maybe 5) headlamps were donned, and off we moseyed out the rabbit hole and across the parkway to the golf course for… […]
Highlands Boot Camp After Dark
After YHC’s Wednesday evening got later than expected, a 5:30 a.m. wake-up call was not heeded. So, what’s a Pax to do? In MeCa/at Highlands, you sign-up to Q the region’s only evening beatdown: 7:30 p.m. at Highland Creek Elementary. A preblast was posted to Slack, hoping to induce some company. Two others heeded the […]
Block B.O.M.B.S. and Trunk Coffee
13 lucky Pax came out to Highlands 5:30 a.m. boot camp with thoughts of a beatdown and a promise of post-workout coffee from YHC. A thorough disclaimer was given, noting the presence of FNG Aaron, before we moseyed toward the middle of the bus lot for… Warmarma (IC) SSH x19 IST x15 Weed Picker x10 […]
I Never Said We Wouldn’t Be Running
Six men — including a blast from the past — made the smart decision to start their Friday right by posting with YHC for Cardio. It could have been the promise of coffee that drew them in, or a (albeit misguided) thought that we weren’t going to be running. Who can say? A disclaimer was […]
Dutch Boy in the Daylight
With a mission down range this week, YHC wasn’t able to post on Thursday morning as is usually the plan. Instead, with an early flight back to CLT, YHC took the final Q of the day for Thursday to do my evening VQ. Not being an afternoon regular, YHC was posted over at the middle […]
Not Your M.A.M.A.’s 11s
YHC had something special in mind for the last Last Call workout of April. It was going to be fun; it was going to be different; Some of the men might hate it. But, plans changed when YHC received a (semi)drunk dial from some Fire Pit Friday pax advising of a hard-charging FNG en route. […]
B.O.M.B.S. Away
13 of the finest men MeCa has to offer got their Tuesday off to the right start at Highlands, despite YHC’s Slack pre-blast about the B.O.M.B.S. that were to come. A request for headlamps from YHC at 5:28 had some questioning their choice, but I promised it wasn’t for the usual Tour de Highlands that […]
Stay on the Sidewalks for Safety (This is Fine)
One thing YHC values is transparency. I like to know what’s coming, and I like to let others know what they can expect — especially when the situation may be different from what may be expected. So, with that in mind, YHC put out a brief preblast on Slack Wednesday night advertising that 1) I […]
“You Don’t Wanna Spend Too Much Time Down There”
Seven men, including some not seen in The Gloom in some time, made the right decision to end the week at Last Call, despite some lower than expected temperatures. YHC was curious about the turnout, since we were 18-strong last week, but as the clock struck 7, a disclaimer was given and off we moseyed […]
