Following my VQ on 3.19.18, I posted 132 times the remainder of the year & 17% of the time I was the Q again. For me getting to Q isn’t just designing a WO & instructing the PAX what to do. Qing is the opportunity to lead a group of men (whether it be 3Continue reading "Back in the Saddle 2.18.19 BB for The Incubator"

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

We finished over 5kContinue reading "Post Blast – The Nest/County Saturday 2/16"

BackBlast – #Pleasantville 2/15 Abacus Q
10 PAX turned out to get better ITG. Temp was nearly perfect at 45 degrees, but the wind was constant and provided zero relief. YHC promised no running.

You know the exercises. You can do the exercises. But can you do the exercises on time? Come to the Mutt tomorrow and find out with Aerobie!
2/16/19 – Fergie Q the Ruiner @ the “O”
I've been refining my weinke for the past week, and monitoring a potential 1-3" coming Friday night. Accuweather is saying there is an 88% chance of little to no accumulation. We'll modify if the 12% hits to stay safe/dry, but plan to do some running, some coupon work, and generally keep moving. SYITG.

Extender Valentine’s Day Back Blast
I scheduled to do Valentine's Day at the Extender quite a few weeks ago. I knew I could have some fun with it. But before I even firmed up the weinke, the playlist had to be completed first.
