Nothing like a Pax of 26 and an FNG to really make a VQ a nerve racking experience. YHC appreciates your patience and understanding for the learning curve.
Octonary – relating to or based on the number eight. YHC likes reps with a definitive end that gives a goal to reach. Eight worked for easy counting that YHC mostly got. It also allowed a variety of exercises along with running.
Mumbled through the disclaimer. Got started.

The explanation of Snake Charmer was not acceptably defined, so here it is. Snake Charmer = Indian Run of a different Indian. Just a Snake Run, trying to give it a funny name. Tried. Failed. Moved on.

YHC closed in prayer.
Thank you for allowing YHC to Q. I really enjoyed it. Hate that the Pax did not get to enjoy the final two cycles of The Octonary. Will speed it up next time to get all 8 cycles in. Did not see as much leakage as I had hoped, so maybe the 8 will do it. Or just drop the easy stuff…
Respectfully,
Gander
