No longer the Site Q at Purgatory, YHC (#Spamtan) is now free to explore the other Saturday AOs. What better way than heading to Impossible Situation. The Mothership. The site of YHC’s first post, over 3 years ago. Saturday also marked the 100th birthday of Hanes Park. Wonder what the citizens of Winston-Salem in 1919 would think of what we did….
Before the best five minutes in F3, YHC produced my ruck. Affixed is my patch from the first Blackbeard’s Challenge. The challenge is named in honor of Matthew Pucino.
The challenge occurs every Memorial Day. The boys at F3Greensboro host. Next year will be my 4th time. Hope to have you join me.
Inside the ruck was a 20 lb. plate. The ruck would be with us all hour long. When not in use for exercise, Pax would alternate wearing it.
