I pity the fool that doesn't come to the Black Ops at Mr. T tomorrow. Sorry...wrong T.  Don't mind that and come out anyway.  We'll run. We'll climb. We'll merkin for certain. And the view of the sunrise over that reservoir will be the best thing you see all day.  Meet at the reservoir stairs. Continue reading "Pre-Blast – 6/14 Black Ops Mary T"

The musical generator was out in full force. No one's attire really stood out, I still have trouble recognizing methane without his blue pullover and nino is really starting to favor tanks and a nike hat with a little neon stitch.  I did notice little jerry and I did not match today and Retainer didContinue reading "BB: 06/13/2018: Glauc Q.

Swim, Pike, Run! For this week’s Rough River Black Ops, we decided to get a little crazy. If IHOP can start changing up letters, so can we. Thus: Swim, Pike, Run. PAX: Ashley, Scratch-N-Dent (Q). Couldn’t get the 2.0s out of bed. COP: Disclaimer, Mosey down the dock. Arm Circles, Abe Vigodas, Imperial Walkers. THANG 1:Continue reading "6/12 Back Blast: Rough River Black Ops"

Great workout coming to Shelbyville at 5:30 tomorrow.  Maybe burpees, maybe running, maybe etc.

If you read my pre-blast you will recall we were going to do some core work today.  15 PAX made it to the Tank this morning including 2 FNG's (Gangplank and Purnell) and I don't think they were disappointed!  OJ, Kilo, Bob Ross (left the plushness of the Posh), Flounder, Tony Malito, Peek-a-boo, Cutlass, Wham,Continue reading "BBlast “The Tank” 6/16/18"

I failed again. But this time, I meant to fail. I meant for everyone to fail. Because we all push ourselves to the point of failure, then again, then again. Sorry to the HIMs that are attempting the 10k Merkin Challenge, because my Q certainly didn't offer assistance with easy Merkins... Nope, I made theseContinue reading "The Rooster Backblast- Star Child’s latest failure"

Two-thirds of our way around the Egg Lawn after Thang Two, Big Bird looks over and asks, "did you sleep last night?" No, sir, I did not. In fact, I set 6 different alarms, one every ten minutes between 4:00 am and 5:00 am, to make sure I didn't fartsack my first Q. I didn't.Continue reading "Backblast, #Incubator VQ"

I am looking forward to my first Q at the Tank!  In fact, I'm heading that way after work for a little old fashioned Recon.  The Wienke is almost complete and  I want to make sure I'm using the best parts of the park.  What to expect?  Core, core and more core.  Some might evenContinue reading "PreBlast “The TANK” 6/13/18"

That is right boys. Come on out to the posh and get those glutes and love handles. Your M will thank you later.   Glauc out

The rain held off this morning for a nice 70 degrees with just a little mist at the end.  We had a good crowd with T18, Banana Bread, Gilly, Capt. Goodvibes, Thumbtack, Turrible (FNG), and Grandpa Bear (Q) representing.  The pressure was on as Banana Bread jokingly said before starting Grandpa Bear never disappoints.  AsContinue reading "6/12 Backblast Bayside"

I know it’s early but I wanted to get this out as soon as possible.  I’m back as Q at the ToG and my skinny arms are tired from this merkin challenge.  So if you are looking for merkins- head over to the Mutt for PEDs 500 Merkin beatdown.  But I also know the OContinue reading "Preblast 6/14 Temple of Gloom"

Come join me at the O in the morning for a Bag of Wrenches beatdown.  There's an 85% chance of thunderstorms, a 99.99% chance you'll get wet, a 100% chance you'll get better and only a .000143% chance you'll get struck by lightning.  I'll take those odds.  SYITG and bring garbage bags for the rideContinue reading "Pre Blast – 6/12 Bag of Wrenches"

I'm trying to Q as much as possible these days before the 2.0 arrives, and I had something special planned today at the North Posh, a little too special that I swept my own feet from under me. 13 HIMs craved to know more about the significance of 6, 11, & 18 Monday ITG: ForcedContinue reading "North Posh 6/11/18 Backblast"

What's up F3 Nation!!  Sorry for the delay, I had some technical difficulties getting this BB out, typical VQ here!  What an AWEESSSSOMME day to start out my inaugural  Q.  Thanks to all who came out to support me.  I hope everyone got a good workout in, I know kicked my own butt! Looking forwardContinue reading "6/7 Back Blast – Who Dey VQ #templeofgloom"

Sorry for delay.. Unlike  the lack of effort in getting this out in 24 hours, there was no lack of effort in 5 other PAX this past saturday @ Bayside.  The random music generator was out, the sun was coming up and hot.  It was steamy... Q:  Glauc PAX: Grandpa Bear, Thumbtack, Capt. Goodvibes, SixContinue reading "06/09/2018 : BackBlast Bayside, HIMS getting work done"

  As I previously stated, I hadn't Q'd a Saturday in a while, so I had been tinkering with my weinke (heh-heh) all week. I was jacked for the WO that I came up with, but I slept surprisingly well Friday night. My alarm goes off at 0615, I get up, drop the kids offContinue reading "06.08.18 The Hurt BackBlast – Old Bay, eventually, at the Helm."

In college I felt like on any given night of the week if I wanted to drink & go out to the bars I could ALWAYS find a fraternity brother who was willing to do the same. Jump ahead 10 years & I feel the same with way this PAX, although slightly modified. On anyContinue reading "6/9/18 Backblast Pre-Ruck for The Fog"

Tomorrow is 6/11/18. So keep those numbers in mind. 6. 11. 18. North Posh tomorrow @ 0530. SYITG. #TheSilo

Come out and get your Sunday started the right way, at the O (6:00-6:45).  I'll be testing out a few things in preparation for my Q Tuesday at the ToG.  Plus, Snowman has already given me the HC, so you'll be in good company.  SYITG

I woke up this morning feeling every minute of 41 years old, aching all over and completely ready to fartsack.  But I remembered that I had called this Black Ops.  I was the Q and on top of that, a PAX I had never met, Duplo, had already contacted me the night before about workingContinue reading "Backblast – 6/9 Black Ops at the Mutt"

Funny story. Nugget and I were talking over a beer at Gerstle's two weeks ago. Retainer: "I'm not sure I'm ready to Q. Give me a few months to get in better shape and figure out how F3 works." Nugget: "You're Q'ing on June 11." Retainer: "So that's how F3 works." I'm loving this group,Continue reading "Preblast VQ Alert at the #Incubator"

One year ago June 7, 2017 happy on the outside, but frustrated with my appearance.  Loving father and husband, but a short temper.  The birth of my son (Ryan) coupled with some health scares and a great friend (Rhythm) recommendation, soon led me to you.  F3Louisville.   Needless to say, I was certainly not theContinue reading "6/7 Kilo Birthday BackBlast #TheExtender"
