Building Blocks

While half dozen PAX ventured down to launch F3Orlando, the rest of us (12 PAX) stepped up to a challenge made of blocks and hills.  YHC has three goals in life – 1)Build better bonds between men, 2)have thighs like Drone and 3)have shoulders like Jumanji… so this w/o covered all three.  Turned out to be a grueling team w/o with lots of encouragement and accountability mumbled throughout.  It was hot and the hill was soggy – perfect!
