Hitting the ground running

First time over at the fairly newly minted Kryptonite and decided to see what all of the fuss was about.Ā Stallions that’s what. These hombres want miles, speed and whatever you can throw at them. Varsity team need only apply….non of that Thursday night JV stuff, no sir. That being said, YHC didn’t want to bring down the mean, especially after having spent all weekend with Denali at Y Guides Spring Outing. [Read More]

Guns, Bras, Rocks, Johnny Cash

The threat of rain didn’t keep too many away today. Parking lot filled and at 5:45 sharp (or thereabouts since YHC didnt have a timepiece today) we were off towards the front entrance of the park. Tight pax running 2x2 on the sidewalk headed up the High House hill to the 2nd entrance where we circled up for warm up. GM x20, IW x20, SSH x20, Sir Fazio - 10 each way [Read More]

Dora Dora

15 Pax including 4 FNG’s for Explored a new area at Flirtin With Disaster. Gloves were donated to each of our 4 FNG’s. Great work Oofta in bringing out all these FNGs! I think this might be tied for a common era FNG record. The Warmup: Jog to the office park across the Parkway, a little Karaoke and backwards running, plank holding and one-arm merkins along the way to keep us all together. [Read More]

Beat the Funk

YHC has to attest that he went to bed not knowing how the morning would roll. Coming off a week long work-vacation where he had no time for rest (the 3 year construction project will not end), YHC was broken and tired, add in there just in a bad mood. At 5:30am we were off with little shared by YHC, the only thing in the back of his mind was to beat the funk out! [Read More]

It's Great to feel Young Again

It’s Great to feel Young again No FNGs, 12 men Indian run to community center for warm-up of some things that are routine.

Round 2 of Double Q

Having rid myself of negative feelings at Round 1 of Double Q regarding the cheaters…no, moving on; they know what they did…a much kindler, gentler Ma Bell showed up to Q round 2. Maybe it was just the sweltering heat that drained YHC of all energy after a mentally exhausting day at work; we’ll never know. 6 strong, aaaaaand let’s roll. Jog over to the parking lot and up the stairs to the top of the parking deck for some assorted warm-up exercises that honestly escape me…cause I was literally making it all up as I went along.

No theme, just disillusionment

It would have been easy - though maybe a bit trite - to come up with some March Madness themed workout given the championship game was the night before. But YHC was just ready to get the juices flowing and work out some aggression because: YHC was tired from having stayed up and watched a basketball game Officials and BOG overseers of the university that the winners of said basketball game represented willfully, arrogantly, and unremorsefully initiated and perpetrated the longest and most egregious case of academic fraud in the history of sports in order to keep players eligible, maintain their cash cow of a revenue stream and ultimately win championships so said officials and BOG overseers can bloviate to their country club, academia, faux academia, and law firm colleagues how “their” basketball team is better’n your’n, all while NCAA and ACC officials nodded in agreement as aforementioned officials, BOG overseers, hired mercenaries, PR firms and pompous academics obfuscated, hid behind obtuse laws, delayed, denied, countered, covered up, and persecuted in order to keep the truth from being exposed.

Bloody knee and no cape

And so it begins…Kryptonite is in the books and off and running (or racing). Pet Sounds and YHC scouted the site out last Monday while Flouride was running surveillance in Israel (that sounds cooler than KoKa Booth but who asked). We went around the lake and in and out of building parking lots. Kryptonite has many options for the PAX to enjoy. Let’s see what happened today: YHC arrives six or seven minutes prior to the launch.

50

Within days after turning 49 last year, I startedĀ hearing questions like, “Are you still 49?”, and “Shouldn’t you be 50 by now?” Contrary to McCants’ accusations, I have not been 49 for 3 years. 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]
