You’ve been waiting patiently for my fartsack of a Backblast.  I have to continue to live up to the reputation I’ve worked so hard to establish.  Pax showed out in droves to check out Kilos gearlander for the big day.  This year I decided to dial it down on the spandex and dial it upContinue reading "2/14 Valentine’s Day Backblast #KiloLoveBag at #ToG"

Backblast – 2/20/19. The Tank @ Veterans

Methane, Deep Dish, Drysdale, Aerobie, and Bob Ross Q Weather 32 and Pouring. We huddled up (all 5 of us) under the pavilion. The Disclaimer wasContinue reading "Backblast – 2/20/19.

The Not So SMURPH: Back Blast 2.16.19

This Saturday started off a little earlier than normal. With the Star Course closing in, several of us wanted to get some miles in prior to starting the day.

PreBlast for The Blender at The Mutt, an interview with Roosevelt E. Roosevelt

My good friend Roosevelt E. Roosevelt won't make it to the WO tomorrow, but I called to get his thoughts on the conditions. What do you think about my Weinke Roosevelt? "It's hot! Damn hot! Real hot! Hottest things is my shorts. I could cook things in it. A little crotch pot cooking." Thanks. HowContinue reading "PreBlast for The Blender at The Mutt, an interview with Roosevelt E. Roosevelt"

Backblast – 2/16/19. The Hurt @ the Mutt

As others on here have noted, something great about getting to lead is dealing with changing circumstances, and frequently at this time of year the changes are in the weather. I experienced this when I Qd at the Hurt last Saturday. I prepared the Weinke a few days ahead of time, before hearing forecasts forContinue reading "Backblast – 2/16/19. The Hurt @ the Mutt"

PB – Grinder @ The Bridge 2/20

It’s been over six months since I’ve Q’d at the Poshlands and I’m excited to get the chance again. I remember there’s a huge covered pavilion there. We’ll be able to see it from a distance as we run and carry coupons through the steady rain and driving winds on Wednesday morning. Can’t wait! RememberContinue reading "PB – Grinder @ The Bridge 2/20"

2.18.19 O BO BB: Beer can cause questionable decision making.

Backstory- This past weekend at the Ruiner the PAX were all a buzz with talk of the TailSpin Ale Fest taking place later that afternoon. I bring this up for a few reasons but understand, we talked about this for at least 10 of the 60 minutes of the WO. Buschhhhh had a ticket forContinue reading "2.18.19 O BO BB: Beer can cause questionable decision making."

Post Blast – The Nest/County Saturday 2/16

Some came because they knew it was a heavy run day, some were "pleasantly" surprised :).  Goal for today was to run 5k! For a change of pace we went off campus into surrounding neighborhoods, stopping every 1/2 mile or so to do 25 merkins, 25 big boys, 25 plank jacks.  We finished over 5kContinue reading "Post Blast – The Nest/County Saturday 2/16"

BackBlast – #Pleasantville 2/15 Abacus Q
