11-16-19 The Hurt at The Mutt Backblast
Sump Pump sent out a slack message saying he was injured and needed someone to take his place for his Q.

Preblast 11-16 The Hurt at The Mutt
Next man up! That’s what we say when the starter is injured. That’s sorta the way it’s been for my beloved Boilermakers since we’re currently on our walk-on 4th string QB, but I digress.

9-10-19 Backblast The Rooster at the Mut
A year ago I was an out of shape 40 year old. With work, school, dance, gymnastics, soccer, and baseball the last thing I had time to do was to take care of my health, both physically and spiritually. I had recently participated in the Rugged Maniac at Paoli Peaks. I finished but my upperContinueContinue reading “9-10-19 Backblast The Rooster at the Mut”

Star Ruck Back Blast (We Be Shufflin’)
50 miles on foot is a loooong way. Carrying over 30 pounds on your back is no picnic either.

Not just our team, butContinueContinue reading “Star Ruck Back Blast (We Be Shufflin’)”

So as I said in my Pre-Blast I picked up Blueprint’s Q so he didn’t have to Q two out of three days. He took the bitter cold day on Monday and I took the rainy Wednesday.
