YHC had literally just returned at midnight on Saturday from a post Ragnar trip to Michigan with family, full of lots of adventure, but it’s a lonnnng 11 hour drive back. That drive would later rear its head during the workout, but nothing YHC couldn’t deal with.

NMM

• @Burns called out on Slack my affinity for the number 22, TClaps to him for his strong memory. But Boo on him for skipping out on the fun!
• YHC arrived to @GreenAcres lying on the ground motionless… thankfully he was just stretching. Every monday he does a 4.4 mile RIRO to TIT, which means he gets nearly 200 miles worth of EC on Monday alone every year (since he posts just about every week). #ISI #RESPECT #TCLAPS
• Lots of talk about cities in Nebraska from @Palin, but no Omaha’s were given this morning.
• Great to see @Ziggy at the workout, which was quite possibly not the toughest thing he did in the day as we both discussed the start of a new school year at WFU starting at 8.
• No one likes doing 110 burpees and 110 merkins over the course of a single set. At least the humidity softened the blow?
• I think some of us learned (or relearned) that Lincoln was the capital of Nebraska. And other than Omaha, Nebraska City was the only other destination named.
• The previous night’s rain prevented both the use of the field and the track, and the pull-up bars. The PAX were glad to stay off of them though, no Cotton Candy melted this morning. Well, that is until we were all drenched with Sweat. 
• @Chowda left @Transcript to post Solo, and clearly he was missed!
• YHC reminisced about the time @Turnover first had to deal with a set of 22s and his disappointed exclamation of “Oh Van Gogh…….” pops into YHCs brain on the 22nd of every month.
• @Hansel posted with a hat on and at least 3 guys thought he was an FNG
• @Airbag has become quite the regular at TIT, and YHC thinks he is surely due for a Q again soon. He made quick work of our set of 22s, without nairy a complaint!
• YHC was glad to have jumped right back into F3 after being gone so long, but perhaps my back wasn’t quite ready? This is the 3rd recent instance of a long road trip yielding back issues the next day, but thankfully, things were close to normal by Thursday, so it worked out fine overall! 

Thanks for posting men, #TClaps on the strong work you all put in! Crash, the Keys were thrown wildly into the air when the pulled muscle occurred. Maybe check the roof?
