Fours + Special Guest Mary

This is the second Q for YHC, feels good to be leading again. If good things come in 2’s it must be twice as good to get 4. . . so let’s go with that Let’s Go - 4.1 Disclaimer Pledge Mosey around the parking lot to the front of the church I bet it’s like four 10ths of a mile. . .

A Case of the Mondays

The sun comes up early these days. Early enough for an old guy like YHC to be able to make out most of the faces gathered around the shovel flag at about 0543. As the garmin strikes 0545, there are 21 PAX who pledge their allegiance, then follow the Q as we all mosey into the bowels of Apex Community Park. Warm Up SSHs, Good Mornings, Steve Earles, Moroccan Night Clubs, Overhead Claps, Plank Jacks, Calf Stretches, and 10 burpees OYO. [Read More]

Not enough... no problem

Filling in for the legendary @www is no easy task. Prepped the workout and all plans are in place. Until Texas Ranger posts on slack “might not be enough cinders”. When I showed up on site and ran quickly to see the cinder count, I thought I should be good with about 10 or so Pax standing around and roughly 9 min to “go time”. But… cars continued to roll in and by the time we began it was 19 solid HIMs waiting for some fun. [Read More]

Starting posish, move.

It won’t be 10, but ya boi will lock it down this week, so let’s go. -- To start: Heavy hearts across F3 Raleigh and beyond after hearing the news that Warchild (Alec Romulus) lost his battle with addiction this weekend. He was way too you. We lifted up him and his family through a moment of silence before the workout and many of our pax were in black from head to toe. [Read More]

There's a fine line between Mumble Chatter and just plain whining.

Because sometimes 0500 is too late, our EC today started at 0450. YHC, Snots, Sub, Parker, Water Wings & Jiggly Puff got dizzy running circles around the track. Welcome to Carpex (from Wake Forest) Kid Rock and his 2.0 Hank Williams Jr. Run to the basketball court to circle up **Warm Up **Good Morning, Windmill, Cotton Picker, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Clap, Overhead Clap, Moroccan Night Club, Steve Erale [Read More]

Mini Murph

January 18th, 2019 YHC was an FNG (EH’d by Banana Seat) at Dante’s Peak. Almost 5 months later my VQ date had arrived. Most cadence counting was done correctly. . . 24 PAX showed up for a beautiful 70 degree morning with all the humidity central North Carolina can throw at us. Disclaimer I am not a professional, in fact I’ve never done this before, Frisco has limited assets and you are welcome to them, but you probably already have nicer stuff. [Read More]

What the Hill

The day didn’t start just like any other day. The FartShat was oh so close, butt didn’t rear its ugly head till the drive home from work, but that’s another story. With BRR around the corner, 94 days to go, the training has begun for many newbies and veterans alike. And feeling a little behind the curve following last years nipple run, it’s time to get into hill shape. Warm Up jog around the parking lot and circle up for various warmup exercises including runners stretch. [Read More]

Lets see what sticks...

YHC had not Q’d since we sent the guys to Peru so I was long overdue. A cool and clear spring morning brought strong numbers out to Salem Elementary. EC guys rolled in with a minute to spare and after a piecemeal disclaimer we began. Warm Up Good Mornings Windmills Sixty Second Arm Circles (Check out the exicon, I think I did them justice but confusion ensued!) Sprinkler (Another exicon gem, looked more like a Heisman pose or awkward prom dance move) [Read More]
