Flip Flop Q-Skool

Yeah, I went to the F3Carpex Q-School a couple months ago, led by the honorable CK. I learned lots that day, however just like in high school and college, I got an A+ on the exam….but forgot everything after that day. Then the day comes for me to Q again, but I didn’t remember all of CK’s simple lessons that day…….kinda like taking the GRE and forgetting how to calculate simple items you learned in previous years, like a cosine or tangent.

Danger Zone welcomed us with a deluge as March was determined to go out like a lion. If you don’t get that reference, look it up. I’ll wait…Anyway, YHC’s grand, beast-like plans were thwarted. Yeah, we could have run around the pickle and rolled around in it with some Superman - Bananas, but nah. Warm-Up Jog up and around by the basketball court and into the shelter. Perform a little Hot Spot-esque feng shui (again, I’ll wait…) with the tables to make room for the Thang. [Read More]

50

Well, 49 no longer. 24 PAX showed up at SnS today to join in the 50th birthday Q celebration. It went something like this: Warm up Fellowship jog to lower parking lot 50 Merkins (because 50) 50 Hillbilies, IC 10 Good Mornings, IC 20 Mountain Climbers, IC Thang 1 [Read More]

YHC is working on his fitness and his #CarpexChallenge so after making sure his passport is valid he hit up the ole Q sheet and got on for DZ. Swung by and grabbed Open Out so we could take turns driving and let the other one sleep. I love road trips! Upon arrival we had to check our calendar. This was Friday, right!?! Empty lot. Soon enough the PAX rolled in. [Read More]
