BB- North Posh – 7/4/22

After coming back from Scout Camp in Canton, NC, YHC picked up the Q for North Posh. It is a great spot for running. If you haven’t been there, check it out sometime soon. With it being a holiday, the 7AM start time didn’t make it seem so much like the usual gloom. I wasn’tContinue reading “BB- North Posh – 7/4/22”

BB- North Posh – 1/24/22 – Meter Maid Q

BB- North Posh – 7/27/20 – Meter Maid Q

Last night, my AC went out, I wasn’t sure how I was going to sleep. Luckily the house didn’t go above 77 degrees. I know I wouldn’t be dreaming of my Q in advance like Backflop. I think he may need to lead a Q school class on this. I knew some of those whoContinue reading “BB- North Posh – 7/27/20 – Meter Maid Q”

It is crazy how much F3 (3 AO’s) and myself have grown over the last 2 years.  F3 has challenged me physically, mentally, and spiritually and made me a better father, husband, and friend. Still remember the conversation I had with StarChild and him not accepting my excuse.  I challenge all PAX to push the personContinue reading “BB 8/26 – Uncle Rico @ North Posh – 2 Year Postversary”

It happened.  I missed a Q this week.  I won’t go into the excuses because it really doesn’t matter.  I own it, and like a good friend said, “sh&t happens”.  So I have to make sure I don’t miss this Q. So I have it booked, marked, alarmed and planned out. I’m finally rounding backContinue reading “Alarm is Set. Calendar Booked. See you at North Posh on 3/18. Heavy, heavy heavy Preblast.”

Slippery Hills at St. Pats – Back Blast 3.14.19

I didn’t realize what the weather was going to be like this morning until after I read OJ’s pre-blast and took a look at the weather channel.

1/14 North Posh Preblast (Read on for some Pro Tips) – It Gonna Be Goooooood
