Y2K was not the best decade for music

Rain threatened, but we did not care. 23 HIMs strode into the gloom to do battle with ourselves and be AWESOME! There were no FNGs. The mission, disclaimer, and pledge were recited. We moseyed to the green way parking lot for warm-ups. Warm-ups Side Straddle Hops Good Mornings Cotton Pickers (my hammies were really tight) Sir Fazio Arm Circles Merkins Calf Stretches Thang One We ran through the darkness of the green way heading for the bridge.

Exercise To Be Named Later

Beautiful morning for a 0515 workout. Even better for a 0440 EC. Repeato enjoyed a ruck, YHC and Gym Tan Laundry enjoyed a 3 mile run while discussing rock climbing. (If you haven’t already, watch the Documentaries The Dawn Wall & Free Solo. In that order.) 9 other HIM showed up, disclaimer “was given” and off we went. Mosey to the median at the end of Regency Pkwy for a little Warm-Up and Advertising. [Read More]

One for the Record Books

YHC apparently forgot why Rush Hour got its name! Waze said 5:43 arrival and it was dead on. Popped out the car and noticed a LOT of people waiting around for a Q. 19 to be exact. It was said that’s a record, not sure the accuracy of that but YHC will take it! Why so many guys!? 1. The weather, bro! It was gorgeous out there! 2. The beers that would soon follow. [Read More]

The Murph

The day immediately following a Maynard Run is usually reduced attendance, and today is no different. Six HIMs felt the call and posted regardless! Gorgeous weather this morning, and I wasn’t the only one still nursing minor aches and pains from yesterday’s Maynard. 7:15, time to start. No FNGs, so two brief laps around the pickle followed by a quick Warm-Up 20 SSH 5 Good Mornings 20 Merkins OMD 20 Squats OMD The Murph! [Read More]

She's a good girl...

…as long as she squats. Just ask Smokey. Any who… 15 pax deep for YHC’s return to FWD. Been a minute since I’ve been at the second darkest AO in all of Carpex. A stellar mission statement, short disclaimer and we’re off. Warm-up: Over to the pickle lot for agility weave thru the balls (giggidy) and circle up for GM, SSH, Imperial Walker, EWalkers and quick feet/merkins on the curb [Read More]

50 Challenge Vanilla ... NOT!!!

PAX: Ashbury (hate), Captain Jack, Chipper, EarharT, FNG Fedora (hate), Honeycomb, Joe Smith, Kermit (Hate), Kitty Litter, Meatloaf, Milton Bradley (hate), Sega (hate), Smokey, Staubach, Term Paper, Titanic, Whirlie, WWW My original Q slot was supposed to be last week because Blue Water was not going to get back from his trip until later that day, so he needed someone to step in and Q. I thought I was the first to respond but Riptide was quick on the draw and beat me to the punch. [Read More]

TTT is back!

It was a perfect morning to bring out the old tank-top, but it required digging it out of my pile of old t-shirts that I keep for some reason. Is it possible for t-shirts to have sentimental value? Smokey had the same idea, and looked quite stylish in his colorful apparel. We began with the F3 disclaimer and pledge. Then a short jog to the end of the park for: [Read More]

Unofficial/Official BRR Training Season

Shut-In blew-out his kankle on Friday and needed to go to the bullpen early in the week. This is now the most unique way that he has managed to avoid my Q.

Head across the street for a standard warm-up. 10 SSH, 10 GMs, 10 PJs, 10 IWs, 10 MCs, and 10 merkins. [Read More]
