So…recently trying to get back in the swing of things, Piranha Park has become a new favorite. I’ve still not had a single drop of Vicious Fishes brews, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the Piranha Joe’s offerings. This has become a “go for the 1st F so I can enjoy the 2nd and 3rd F” workouts. The call went out from Peeping Tom on Thursday afternoon…and it sat there for just a little bit before YHC picked it up. [Read More]

On a rare weekend at home, Earhart put out the call there was no Q for Piranha Park. YHC quickly snapped it up. EC and pain options abound at Apex Nature Park, even though the AO has to start so late to allow Cheddar Bo Jr the chance to unlock the cot dang gate. Anyway, remembering an OTB EC run we did a few months ago in from Vicious Fishes then back again afterward, I decided to resurrect it. [Read More]

Another glorious night in DTC, ok, it was gloomy and misty. It had been awhile since my last Q. I have been working on this idea for awhile. I arrived early to set up and Old Maid was already on his way out for an EC run, 4+ miles. 4 other did a EC around the ToC campus. Red Ryder let me know of a possible FNG he was bringing. I was nervous, since I had never Q’d when we had an FNG. [Read More]
