YHC doesn’t get to PHOP too often based on the distance from YHC’s house, but really enjoys it when the opportunity arises. Five other #HIM joined YHC this morning in the gloom for a Tabata inspired workout. YHC first came across this type of workout visiting a St. Louis AO a month or so back […]

I probably have made the drive to OldTown close to 150 times over the past 3 years. Today was different. Different in the sense that I was heading to OldTown thinking about the countless conversations, laughs, moments, and memories made at this AO in the gloom and trying to remember who I was 3 years […]
This morning was nasty and “really gross” weather as my M calls cold rain mixed with sleet. As I pull into the EarthFare parking lot, Jester rounds the corner from his pre-run. We stand under the EarthFare canopy and decide to call it when no one else shows up. Jester and I have been wanting […]
