Pre-blast: 1/30/21 – The Hurt @ The Mutt

Tomorrow I’ll be abandoning my site Q duties @ The Ruiner and heading across the zip code to lead the fine gentlemen of The Mutt. I can’t put my obligations @ The O aside and bring a soft workout to another AO so expect to get your fill in the morning. It’s gonna be aContinue reading “Pre-blast: 1/30/21 – The Hurt @ The Mutt”

PB – 12/26/20 – Sump Pump Q – The Hurt at The Mutt

It will be my last Q as site Q for the Hurt. It will be cold. But after all that food you had today, you’ll surely have a little extra to keep you warm. Come out to The Mutt with a pair of running shoes and gloves. Both will be needed. Christmas Day may haveContinue reading “PB – 12/26/20 – Sump Pump Q – The Hurt at The Mutt”

👻🎃🧛‍♀️ PB – Ghost Q – The Hurt @ The Mutt 10/31/2020 👻🎃🦇

The Ghost Q reached out to me months ago (like January) to secure his spot to Q at the best AO in 40207. I asked HIM to send me a pre-blast and I would post it so we did not reveal his identity. So after 10 months of waiting for an epic PB, here isContinue reading “👻🎃🧛‍♀️ PB – Ghost Q – The Hurt @ The Mutt 10/31/2020 👻🎃🦇”

Pre Blast 17-Oct-2020 Saturday the Hurt at the Mutt 07:00 Crock Pot Q

What meal is in the Crock Pot? My 6 year old (F3 Luigi) has been watching parkour videos lately. Consequently, he’s been jumping, rolling, flipping, and bounding over everything we own. In several cases, he’s literally run and jumped off the wall. At the Hurt tomorrow, we’ll spend some time on the wall. Or willContinue reading “Pre Blast 17-Oct-2020 Saturday the Hurt at the Mutt 07:00 Crock Pot Q”

Pre Blast – Sump Pump – The Hurt @ The Mutt 8/1/20

Old Bay always says that you can only get wet once. Tomorrow will offer a good chance (70% at last check) to get wet early. I cant promise that we will hang out under the portico (50% at last check), but you can be sure that a full body beatdown is in the making. MakeContinue reading “Pre Blast – Sump Pump – The Hurt @ The Mutt 8/1/20”

Pre-Blast The Hurt @ The Mutt 6/13/2020

As promised a few weeks ago, we will keep with spin the wheel, roll the dice, or just pick someone to Q.

6/6/2020 PB – The Hurt at The Mutt

For those that were out last weekend, you know that Wham! and Blueprint volunteered to lead 13 HIM to a subtle beat-down. The PAX were so gassed that no one had the energy to argue when the Site Q said we’ll likely have a spin the wheel Q (or 2) all summer. Come out andContinue reading “6/6/2020 PB – The Hurt at The Mutt”

Backblast – 1/4/2020 @ The Hurt with Meter Maid

It was my VQ at the Mutt and I wanted it to be special. I decided about doing something around this day in history. I took the historical numbers and made them the counts for the exercises. Conditions: It was 40 degrees but the wind chill had it feeling like 33 degrees. The rain hadContinue reading “Backblast – 1/4/2020 @ The Hurt with Meter Maid”

BB – The Hurt – 11-23-2019

PAX: No Show, Blueprint, Glen Ross, Tiger, Barney Fife, Tureen, Deuce (Q) Weather was pretty nice considering how the rest of Saturday shook out.

PB – Deuce Q at The Hurt – 11/23/2019

Pepperoni was on the calendar to Q at the Hurt, but it turns out he has far more important things to attend to, and so I gladly took the Q for him.  As for tomorrow, its probably going to rain, so come prepared.  We will utilize the portico for part of things tomorrow, but otherwiseContinue reading “PB – Deuce Q at The Hurt – 11/23/2019”

St. John Center for Homeless Men Merkin Challenge Update & BLACK OPS – 11/27

Great News – 770 You may ask what does that number mean.  Well that is how many pairs of socks we have raised with 6 days remaining. HUGE Thank You to everyone.

11-16-19 The Hurt at The Mutt Backblast

Sump Pump sent out a slack message saying he was injured and needed someone to take his place for his Q.  I don’t get a chance to make it out very often on Saturdays so I decided to be the next man up.  I wanted to keep moving to stay warm, have some fun butContinue reading “11-16-19 The Hurt at The Mutt Backblast”

Preblast 11-16 The Hurt at The Mutt

Next man up!  That’s what we say when the starter is injured.  That’s sorta the way it’s been for my beloved Boilermakers since we’re currently on our walk-on 4th string QB, but I digress.  When Sump Pump messaged a few of us saying that he was on the DL and he needed a back upContinue reading “Preblast 11-16 The Hurt at The Mutt”

St. John Center for Homeless Men Merkin Challenge

Calling all PAX and AO’s for a wonderful 3rdF opportunity.  I met with St. John Center recently and with the winter coming they are in need of white crew socks for their members.   St. John Center for Homeless Men is a great local non-profit that helps homeless men address the barriers to housing andContinue reading “St. John Center for Homeless Men Merkin Challenge”

BB – The Hurt – 10.19.2019

PAX (3): Soft Top, No Show, Deuce (Q) Weather: a little chilly, but for mid-October it was pretty nice out there. I knew that since  Rucktoberfest was going on the night before, there would be a relatively light crew ITG on Saturday.  However, at 6:59, it was just me, and so I was thinking aboutContinue reading “BB – The Hurt – 10.19.2019”

Back Blast – 9/28: The Hurt @ The Mutt

“Alright Tureen, I’ll be at the Mutt tomorrow. You up for a wager on the game tonight?” – Nugget I’ve done some dumb things over the years: but betting on St. X (straight up) Friday night is right up there with partnering with @buschhhhh or @f3pope for a full morning. But that’s what we do:Continue reading “Back Blast – 9/28: The Hurt @ The Mutt”

9/28/19 Preblast The Hurt @ The Mutt

Well, Sump Pump caught me in a weak moment (pretty sure it was after I had partnered with @buschhhhh, which is just stupid on many levels…) because I’m not scheduled to Q for another 6 months at least. But hear we go… 2.0 friendly workout tomorrow morning. We’ll work hard, have some laughs, and getContinue reading “9/28/19 Preblast The Hurt @ The Mutt”
