What had happened was:

Intro
Heavy fog with near zero visibility driving into Mount X and the promise of pain this morning had the PAX questioning whether it truly was time to stop, drop, shut em down open up shop.

But YHC was determined to deliver and heyooo what these PAX want from brother?! So as promised Gas gone and gave it to em…

We kicked off with a 5-lap ride or die mosey around Mount X, figures moving in and out of the fog like 8 Ruff Ryderz on the prowl.

10X Beatdown
The beatdown followed a relentless rhythm:
– Carry the coupon up the hill
– 10 blockees at the summit
– Carry it back down
– Earn more work at the curb

10 rounds – 10 Xercises:
1. Squats + Lunge Walk
2. High Pulls + Rifle Carry
3. Curls + Bear Hug Carry
4. Tricep X + Bear Crawl
5. Swings + just run (5 more laps around MtX)
6. Simbas + Rifle Carry
7. Thrusters + Lunge Walk
8. Front Press + Bear Crawl
9. American Hammers IC
10. Flutter Presses IC

Musings
Shout out to Waxhaw’s version of Dark Man X, Deadwood, who protected the streetz of Five Stones from YHC and protected the PAX from the streetz early risers for small group.

At one point I heard Roomba say y’all goin make me lose my mind up in here around lap 8 and listening to both Chulula and Gilmore get an education on 90s and early 2000s hip hop was a much needed break from the reality of the moment.

Pretty sure Chastain went to bed rapping to DMX, woke to DMX, and threw out at least a couple Whaaaat and dog barks throughout the day.

COT
Prayers were simple but heavy, thank you to Xerox for sharing. There are people out there struggling, fighting battles we can’t see, sometimes hurting themselves and others in the process. We asked God for wisdom and discernment — to know when it’s time to stand up and fight, and when it’s time to show grace, forgiveness, and love.
