Eyes Up

Posted on August 3, 2019 | 2 minutes | 376 words |

I’m gonna be honest with you. Many Saturdays I take the opportunity to get a little extra sleep. This was a good workout week, which also means that the body is feeling a little sore by the time today rolled around. But, the opportunity to Q Phoenix was too much to pass up. So I managed to unfold myself from the fartsack and make it to Bond Park in plenty of time to get some stretching in. [Read More]

Accountability Revisited

Posted on July 21, 2019 | 2 minutes | 310 words |

Accountability - sign up for the Q slot after a long week out of town to ensure that you post. Accountability revisited - repeat of before, so why not repeat the workout. Hard to believe that we did this back in February 2018 the first time. There were several modifications though since was my first running Q after recovery and with Green Mile down the road our hi tempo guys had an additional option. [Read More]

Baker's Dozen 60 Minute Co-Q

Posted on July 6, 2019 | 2 minutes | 420 words |

Jigglypuff popped his Co-Q cherry this morning when he teamed up with YHC to take on a 60 minute beatdown at Phoenix, Cary’s only Saturday AO. A lucky 13 came out including 1 FNG - Wrench for what turned out to be over 3.4 miles of running and other hoopla. Warm Up YHC’s watch of nearly a year decided to stop working. We started 1 minute late due to this but off we went down to the Kiosk. [Read More]

The Freedom Trail July 4th Convergence

Posted on July 5, 2019 | 3 minutes | 572 words |

@Qwerty, @Red Ryder and YHC met last week to plan the 2019 July 4th Convergence hoping to create something special. Our goal was to keep the PAX together in order to preserve fellowship and maybe a few exercises in-between. The disclaimer was disclaimed, the F3 Mission was delivered and Whitney Houston’s Star Spangled Banner put the PAX in a USA state of mind that included a Fly Over courtesy of Delta. [Read More]

Start spreading the news

Sixteen go-getters decided that the prospect of a 60-minute Bartman Q was somehow more attractive than the spectre of 90 minutes of Banjo, and I don’t blame them. So as not to disappoint, we gathered up, gave what was judged to be a minimally viable disclaimer, and headed to the community center parking lot, with some fortunate restraint shown by ToC’s BFT-wielding CheddarBo. We warmed up. SSH, GM, you know, the popular favorites. [Read More]

Core work at FOD 6-25-19

3 guys did some ECP or something b/c they think South Cary couldnt handle it. I think it started at 5ish. 5:45 - “Disclaimer” was stated, literally. Follow me, the path around the ball fields is closed, like with a fence closed in case you were wondering. Do some penalty burpees for YHC not knowing this. Jog over to the nice soft field and circle up for some warm up stuff. [Read More]

The answer to Life, the Universe and Everything....

YHC didn’t sleep very soundly the night before Q-ing at Phoenix, and wasn’t sure why - perhaps the anticipation of clocking another year old and wiser (?) or perhaps the gnawing feeling of a half planned Q. Whatever the reason, I found myself wide awake at 5, so used the time constructively to complete the Q plan and put in a solid 45 minutes of EC around the beautiful Bond Park……by 06:25 there were only a couple of other PAX beginning to form a rather anaemic looking circle in the senior center parking lot….

As YHC walked around the pax, he noticed a few new faces. Welcome F3 Mozart and his relocation to Carpex from F3 Greensboro. Kotters to 5 Hole. Good to meet CRO and Perry. No FNG’s, Sky Blue led us in the Pledge of Allegiance. Start your Stravas, we’re off. Mosey to the bottom of the hill intersection for various warm up exercises including Nature Boy led good mornings, in absolutely perfect cadence! [Read More]

Aging Gracefully

Posted on June 17, 2019 | 2 minutes | 411 words |

Whoever said getting old can’t be fun? What better way to celebrate your birthday than challenge and push yourself beyond what you thought capable? Even better if a bunch of your friends are pushing you too! 22 HIM ventured out to the mean streets of Bond Park to ring in Franklin’s 49th and YHC’s 48th. Welcome to FNG Huckleberry, named for declaring his favorite movie as Tombstone. Warm-Up: Franklin led the PAX on a friendly mosey to the kite field where we circled up in some moist grass for warmups. [Read More]
