No Larry This Go Around

Posted on May 15, 2017 | 2 minutes | 336 words |

Shut In was afraid of what happened last time YHC led the horses at A-Team. The Pax tried some new exercises and were better for it…were they a bit creative? Sure. Edgy? Perhaps. Did you get to know your fellow man a bit better? You bet your damned ass….(hmmm, interesting choice of words). Anyhow, Shut In didn’t want any more of what could come but his worry was unwarranted. No sir, this day was not to feature Mary’s brother that lives in Key West, Larry. [Read More]

Pain in the Butt

YHC and Michelob ran in to Peak City Beatdown. Monkey Nuts huffed it in too. The Pax was restless this morning. After witnessing a late night twitter war, they were curious to see who would lead them! YHC’s goal of the morning was to be a pain in the ass, or at least make your ass have pain. Freebird seemed to be clock free and was coming in hot, but he’d have to catch us if he wanted to feel some pain. [Read More]

Posted on May 10, 2017 | 3 minutes | 520 words |

I arrive at SNS after not posting here for some time being a regular at Tortoises to a crowd of PAX either hanging out or running in from all directions. Seems SNS has turned into an outdoor gym environment where you can do running, beatdowns, several aerobic options. What is next, cycling and yoga classes? Anywho, 30 plus guys gathered, some ran away for Vesper, some stayed with me for the traditional beatdown. [Read More]

A perfect Wednesday morning for a Shakin-not-Stirred workout: temps in upper 50’s and mild+ humidity. There were a lot of F3 men milling about the shovel flag by 5:40 a.m., many of which were covered in sweat after the 5:05 a.m. F3 Insomnia run. By 5:44 a.m., men had split up into Vesper running group and the classic SNS bootcamp group. There was a singular flip flop that someone tossed in the center circle of the classic SNS bootcamp group, then I stepped into the middle which added another singular Flip Flop in the center circle.

The second week of Bounty Hunters kicked off with 19 strong, including 1 FNG. As Water Wings fumbled his way through Open Out’s half made flag YHC fumbled through the disclaimer. 0545 and some change and we were off to the American flag for the warmup. Before warming up we took in a moment of silence to reflect/pray for our government, military, and freedoms to kick off National Prayer Day. This was then followed up by the Pledge of Allegiance.

Feels like Merkins

From the time YHC’s bowels awoke him at 4:56, it just felt like a merkin kind of day. You know how that is, amrite? Ma Bell’s Qing, you know there will be merkins. Goose and I arrived to a reluctant group of PAX. I mean, it’s 70 degrees out already. Let’s get out of those cars! By the time 5:45 struck, we were 15 strong. Let’s go. Into the park to the first ntersection for Warm-Up [Read More]

After wrestling the Q away from Hotspot, picking up Biner and seeing no bat-signal at PBX’s, YHC rolled into a darkened Apex Nature Park. On the way in, we passed a group of runners (the usual suspects) – Hotspot, Michelob, Pet Sounds, and Old Maid. As we gathered in the gloom, Pet Sounds mentioned that he would like something a little run-lite since we’ve logged so many miles in F3 this week. [Read More]
