The suspense is over. Iron Pax is here! (Woof....) Come out to the County at 5:30am tomorrow for the Week 0 workout. No coupons, but there will be copious amounts of Merkins and Running (about 3.25 miles of running if doing the non-modified version). I will have the workouts (modified and non-modified versions) on theContinue reading "PB 9/2/2021 Iron Pax Week 0 – The Agony at the County"

It was a damp but mild morning...still pretty muggy. I arrived and stepped onto the b-ball court right at 0500. Gathered the PAX (Uncle Sam (R), F-Stop, Kitty Litter, Mr. Hat, Flip Flop (Q)) for COP. We began with SSH-25, Arm Circles into Michael Phelps, Toy Soldiers-10, Grass Grabbers-10, Merkins-10, Downward Dog Stretches, Mtn Climbers-15Continue reading "BB 9-1-21 The Escalator @ The Abyss"

A few weeks back YHC stumbled into the Vets heavy. The beatdown was challenging and tough despite a slightly lower intensity than running all out. When the opportunity to lead the Foundry presented itself, I jumped at it. This was my first Q at the Foundry and maybe first Foundry workout. 12 PAX turned outContinue reading "BackBlast – 9/1/21 The Foundry – Abacus Q @theCounty"

Join me for the most limited running workout I've ever Q'd. Don't worry we will work plenty hard. No tabata, that might be the most boring workout ever created. Bring a coupon. SYITG!

Weather: 70 degrees, 95% humidity Pax (7): Handbook, Harry Caray, Alfalfa, Russdiculous, McAfee, Sump Pump (R ), Fergie (Q) The PB called this a run smedium, which was a hedge in the event we had lightening and needed to find some cover.

Day four of Q school kicked off at 0530 in The Boondocks @ Peggy Baker Park. Forecast was spot on, weatherman got lucky, very slight breeze just under 73f and a big bright moon for light. To be honest, I failed from the begin on this one, not remembering to announce who I am, BuckshotContinue reading "BB – 08.26.2021 – Honey Do – Q school at the Moonshiner"

I'm going to keep this short a simple. 6 PAX showed up in the extra dark gloom pf Posh. We worked out to a pretty incredible display of heat lightning in the sky. COP - The normal stuff. Thang 1 - Super 21's1 Merkin and 1 Big Boy, 2 Merkins and 2 Big Boys, 3Continue reading "BB Squid Q – Incubator @ Posh 08.30.21"

Tomorrow at the O will be a run smedium. No long distances, but we will cover some ground. If it's only raining, we will likely proceed with Plan A. Plan B - If there is lightening, we will find some cover. Bring a coupon just in case.

I don’t know for sure what we’re doing at Posh tomorrow, but I know you won’t need a coupon for admittance. You’ll probably want your gloves, if your in to that kind of thing. Sweat will be poured and work will be done. You know the place and you know the time, be there. SYITG

Bring a coupon tomorrow and your running shoes. We are going to conquer a ladder workout. Guaranteed to start your Monday right. SYITG! - Minnow

Started with 2 laps around the circleContinue reading "8/27/21-BB The Chopper-Bunghole"

Installment #4 of Q School week at the Agony turned out to be an adventure around the County.  Temps were a bit tepid but bearable (and even if they were not, we would have managed because that's what we do - rain or shine, hot or cold - "it don't matter").  We called the time,Continue reading "BB 8/26/21 The Agony at the County – DeVitto Q"

Q School week was easy for me, as it was just Uncle Sam and myself. With Uncle Sam being a site Q himself, this was a breeze. We started with a quick mosey down to tree island and back to the b-ball court for COP. This included a messy countdown of nuclears from 8, 20Continue reading "BB 8/23/21 The Abyss-Motivator"

Good evening! I sure do hope to see you tomorrow. After a great 4 days of Q school by amazing Q's, come on out tomorrow- Friday.

It's Friday of Q school and the weekend is upon us. Having a teacher named Bunghole is a bit frightening but we will hopefully learn how to count, learn the core principles, see if an FNG is around, provide a disclaimer and much more. No coupons required but we will get after it. SYITG!

Come out ITG at 0530 on Thursday and we’ll be hammering home the 5 core principles. On top of learning how to give a disclaimer, the proper way to count, and leaving no man where you found him, we’ll also learn the importance of giving respect you your elders. Lace up your shoes for someContinue reading "8.26.21 Pre Blast: The Extender @ The Mutt- Sump Pump Q"

As I noted in my pre-blast, I really need to make an attempt to get out to the Vets more often. It is so awesome to work out with all of the memorials for our Vets as the background. When Bunghole reached out about Q'ing out there, I immediately jumped on it and I appreciateContinue reading "BB: 8-20-21 Cratchit at the Vets"
