Hit the PAX with a challenge to post at Kryptonite on the Slacks.

Surcharge was unable to make it, although I am not sure he received my request. Anyways, 27 total showed up to see if I learned anything in the past 5 years…………. [Read More]

OK, Boomer

Google it, if you have to. I did. Hint: it has nothing to do with Oklahoma. 19 PAX + 1 for EC only showed up at a damp and gloomy FMJ as Carpex Respect Week rolls on. Seems like an appropriate week for one of our Respects to ask, “Hey! Can you just tell me what ‘OK Boomer’ means so I don’t have to look it up?” In the meantime, we did do some exercises: [Read More]

QIC: Gibraltar Date: 09/20/2019 After 7 years of not exercising in a disciplined way and with only one month of training with F3, Pivot told me if I would like to be a Q. At the beginning it sounds to me very challenging, to lead the workout with people who are really in good shape but I did not want to miss the opportunity and thanks to Torpedo I was able to schedule my Q for the last day of the VQ week.

YHC was in the middle of a BH butt-kicking recently and noticed a REAL NICE stack of sand bags, and so naturally I designed an entire workout around them… and naturally they started to split and spill the sand RIGHT AFTER WE STARTED… but I’m jumping ahead. Pax out on a crisp sub 50 degree morning in Apex. 1 FNG c/o the Greek God of the Olympiad. A purrfectly nailed disclaimer and mission statement and we’re off. [Read More]

Post Odyssey Krypto

 Posted on October 7, 2019  |  2 minutes  |  259 words  |  

If it’s after a weekend event that is likely to have worn the PAX out, it means YHC has signed up for the Kryptonite Q. Did the post-BBR Q last year & had signed up for the post-Carying Place Q this year as well. So nothing different this year with the Odyssey just behind us. A nice easy Krypto to bring the legs back is just up YHC’s alley. But then last night I got to worrying that with most of the guys avoiding Flip’s Krypto Q last week for relaxation with Franklin there could be a pent up demand for miles and miles. [Read More]

Well, YHC was at a conference since Friday, so my Slack time significantly decreased. But I see that Shut-In asked someone to Q for him on Friday. Guess he got nothing, so asked again Sunday, which I saw that night. YHC thought, “my goodness, hope Shutty is OK, he wouldn’t just not Q unless something is drastically wrong”. Nope, he just wanted to attend Franklin’s anniversary Q. pffft. big deal. Nah, just kidding Shut-In, you are a great man and ‘Mantan.
