Good to be back on the horse

After a long hiatus, I stepped up to take the Q at Tin 2 Iron. This is one of the newer AO’s since I first joined F3 in the summer of 2019. I took a long break from F3, I could blame COVID but that’s an excuse, really got lost in life but continued to follow the PAX remotely. Many of the men stayed in contact with me and I appreciated that so much. [Read More]

The Hangover Q

To quote Jimmy Buffett, “It’s a fine line between Saturday night and Sunday morning.” Or in this case Friday night and Saturday morning. This installment all happens to be Captain Jack’s fault, but that is a story for another time. OTR waits for no man, and the sweat will help everybody - especially YHC. 0620 and someone is already skateboarding at this place. Contrary to popular belief, skateboarders have no chill.

The Den in the Darkness

I showed up a few minutes before 0530 to find some returning EC runners who said the parking lot was dark when they left. This is only my second time at the LD, so an impromptu darkness Q would have been unwelcome. Luckily the Diocese had indeed paid the electric bill and the original plan was in effect. No new folks, although Rock Lobster has shaved and looks like a different human.

May the 40s Be With You

To be honest the last thing I wanted to do today was get-up and workout. It was 28 degrees and I hate the cold. I have seen a lot of HIMs Q for their birthday so I jumped on the opportunity. I enjoy workouts that keep your heart rate up and build muscle and that was today’s goal. Exhaust the muscles to build the muscle. 5:30 hard start. No FNGs. First item on deck was the Pledge of Allegiance then onto a quick warm-up. [Read More]
