Music has always been a huge part of my life. I'm almost always listening to music and I love listening when working out. I've started bringing tunes to my workouts. (See my valentine's Q at the Mutt). This time I wanted to incorporate music directly into at least a portion of my weinke. What betterContinue reading "3/19 Rooster at the Mutt Backblast"

BackBlast – CSAUP 3/23/19 North Posh Abacus Q
Several weeks ago at a North Posh run workout Dunphy floated the idea let’s run 50K around the 1.8 mile loop called the Coppiced Woods Trail. If you’re keeping score at home that’s 20 laps! Hmmm! Seems like a great CSAUP opportunity. YHC jumped on the idea and set the date of March 23, 2019.Continue reading "BackBlast – CSAUP 3/23/19 North Posh Abacus Q"
FORE!!! Black Ops Ruck at Seneca Golf Course
4 Ruckers departed from Seneca Park this morning at 0500 to head to the golf course for 18 holes. I forget exactly how hilly that course is, making it perfect for rucking. Played all 18 and back to Seneca put us in at just over 7 miles. I thought I might be running this oneContinue reading "FORE!!! Black Ops Ruck at Seneca Golf Course"

Back Blast – Extender @ The Mutt – 03/21/2019
Zima said it best in his pre-blast - when you mix Jolly Rancher and Zima together it's almost better than PB&J. What a fantastic mash-up -- it's like it was meant to be. Or, perhaps it was just a ploy by Zima to make sure he didn't show up to Q a workout by himselfContinue reading "Back Blast – Extender @ The Mutt – 03/21/2019"
BB 03/06: The Bridge = Glauc Q
This was the beginning of a rough patch for me... a very bad sinus infection and grandfather passing, means this was put to the side.. I'm sorry PAX. This am(03/06), I was just starting to feel a little off with some post nasal drip the night before.. That led to an awful, sinus infection thatContinue reading "BB 03/06: The Bridge = Glauc Q"

Backblast 3/13/19 #TheBridge WWCID
The PAX arrived at The Poshlands last Wednesday in anticipation of a Captain Insane-o beatdown. Just one problem...no Captain Insane-o. We quickly realized that this was a test to see how we would react (CI's brilliance is subtle ) and knew we must apply the principles of what we had learned in F3; soContinue reading "Backblast 3/13/19 #TheBridge WWCID"
