3 Hills

Posted on October 29, 2017 | 3 minutes | 457 words |

The inspiration for the workout today at Phoenix came from reflecting on the hill of Calvary on which Christ persevered and shed His blood for us on the cross. We took on three hills at Phoenix, and I asked the PAX to think of Him and His sacrifice as they persevered this morning. It was a great time. Warmup: One FNG in attendance invited by Malpractice, so gave the disclaimer and then we were off for a little jog through Bond Park to another parking lot. [Read More]

Take me to the other side

Posted on October 28, 2017 | 3 minutes | 460 words |

Twenty HIM showed up on a cold morning for YHC’s second Dante’s Peak Q. For my first Q we stayed on the main side of the park and did burpees. Lots and lots of burpees. More than once I was reminded that there was more to the park than the baskeball court. Today I decided we should stretch our legs and make our way over to the other side. Warm-Up [Read More]

I love @jeremyfoland sending out the weekly “Who’s Qing” tweet because about every 4th week or so I look and say, “Oh, I’m Qing this week.” And speaking of Hotspot, we’ll get back to him a little later. Good crowd of 21 PAX today, including 2 FNGs from out of state. The FNGs came with Grease so I knew they’d be athletes and were probably use to being in action. Gave the disclaimer and we were on our way. [Read More]

Christmas Came Early

BB 15 HIM joined YHC on a crisp, cool NC fall morning at the flaming chicken. I recommended beforehand, that anyone not wanting to run far and work hard, should stay home. These men came out on purpose. Proud of you guys. Today, we learned about teamwork and, in particular, team communication. When you run a trail in the gloom that’s littered with roots, stumps, spiderwebs, and uneven bridges, you need to work as a unit. [Read More]

Then, when pulling into Dante’s 10 minutes before start, no one was around. I thought to myself, “wow”, everyone took that Tweet seriously last night. [Read More]

How quickly..

Posted on October 19, 2017 | 3 minutes | 593 words |

How quickly things change. Last week, Gloom temperatures were in the 70’s and humid. This morning the PAX broke out the long sleeves and sweatshirts (some of them, anyway) for temps starting with a “4.” And that’s Freedom degrees, not in some commie temperature. The Tortoises crew had made the journey north in order to partake of the 2nd/3rdF after the workout (more on this later), so go time was even more of a goat rodeo than normal at SnS. [Read More]

We Did it All

Best way to kick off your birthday (unless you’re off on an exotic getaway) is to Q! This year I just so happen to get one of my favorite AOs, FOD, on one of my favorite fall weather type of mornings. Things were lining up perfectly for me to put it to the Pax. My Twitter #PreBlast said we’d be moving today and move we did. We did it all. [Read More]

It took me a while to get the site going as it was the first site where we doubled up with Danger Zone. The PAX were resistant to adding another site, dividing Carpex on the same day, but I am glad we did. [Read More]

8/17/17 YHC decided that since no pounds have been shed in about 4 months, there has to be another way to measure my F3 fitness quotient…. WARM-UP On this fine August morning the 19 PAX headed west on Hunter St to the Bladestone Ct parking lot for a little stretching and warm-up. A few SSH, merkins, calf stretches and good mornings was all we needed (no arm circles today boys…). [Read More]
