I was prepared to reprise the F3 Churham Baseball workout I've done in years past. Thanks to Crabcakes Pre-blast, it reminded me of the amazing baseball season my beloved Diamond Heels had…they won an unexpected ACC Championship in defeating the vaunted Virginia Tech Hokies, College World Series participating Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the rival NC State Wolfpack.

Two Stout pax showed up, and Crab Cake ran a lonely EC 5k (Rumor that he was running 5:30 miles)…and YHC leaned in to the smaller more intimate group.

YHC conveyed a plan to do 15ish minutes of cardio, 15 minutes of coupons and 15 minutes of Yoga/Core and invited the Pax to offer suggestions about what they did (or did not) want to work out.
