11-18-22: It’s that time………AGAIN!!!

It’s that time of year.  Begin clearing the calendar, getting your hall pass, whatever you need to do to gain concentric approval, do it.  Here are the details of The Fort’s ultimate 2nd F event:

The Event – BBQ & if you’re so inclined, Bourbon & Beers

The Date: 11-10-23

The Time: 1800 – 2100

The Place: 631 Quicksilver Trail – Reserve at Gold Hill Clubhouse

The Ante: $50 (or whatever you feel called to contribute) and a bottle of bourbon to share with the PAX for those who are partaking in libations.

The Cause – Scholarships for graduating Fort Mill HS Seniors

The Why – It bears repeating that to those whom much is given, much is expected.  This presents an opportunity to give back and pour opportunity into the generation who will follow us.

Other details –   Wegmans will be fresh off his marathon and ready to load up with the rest of us.  Anticipate tremendous BBQ, beans and sides.  Bring your appetites.  There may also be a few designated drivers on hand who will be happy to provide PAX a lift home for a nominal additional donation to the cause – something to consider.  The rumor is that cigars may be on hand as well for those who may have an interest (but you do you).

YHC is always honored and thankful for the support of the HIMs in this region and I am confident November 10th’s gathering will prove no different as we move into a time of year whose focus is on giving thanks for all our blessings.

Let’s have a wonderful time and be a generous asset to our community in the process.  Look forward to seeing you there.

Gratefully,

Cyclops

10 Year Convergence

Ten year celebration came to a close this morning with a convergence at WEP. 12 men came earlier for a run to support Operation Sweet Tooth. 84 men attended the main event with three great HIM leading the workout: CSPAN, Maximum, and WWL. No warm-ups this morning. CSPAN took his group around the block with various stops along the way. Seven reps of Flying Squirrels, Merkins, and Sit-ups. WWL had playtime at the playground. Burpees and Pull-ups along with running fast around the playground. Did I mention Power Skips? Maximum had a simple plan. Run backwards up the hill many times and destroy your abs with American Hammers.
We closed the chapter on the first 10 years.
Monday begin the next.
The future is bright.
How will you contribute to the next 10 years?
Make an impact.

The Final Countdown

The day finally arrived for our CSAUP, The FInal Countdown. The rainy weather was not ideal, but it helped keep the temperature and humidity down for ideal running conditions. 67 men participated in the event. Most groups participated in the relay. Ruckers and trail runners fought the elements and got their work done to.
Relay details:   The first Pax will run 3 miles and return to the starting point.  The 1st and 2nd Pax will run 3 miles and return to the starting point. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd runner will run the final 3 miles.  Each route will be unique.  If you get lost, just run 3 miles and return back to the park.

Total miles:  3+3+3 = 10 F3 math   (Runner 1 – 9 miles, Runner 2 – 6 miles, Runner 3 – 3 miles)

Inspiring stuff this morning. River Rat’s 2.0s ran the course like it was a lap around the track. Lots of guys ran distances they have never run before.
We’ve got a good pool of runners for the upcoming Dam to Dam Relay.

Great job by everyone this morning!
