Wisteria @ Pleasantville BB 01/31/2020

My first trip back to the house that Grinder built in a while was an exciting prospect.  A busy week at work and three hour beer tasting had me less prepared than usual Thursday night.  Hey no problem!  The possibilities are endless in Pleasantville.  Fast forward six hours and I’m driving that way, listening toContinueContinue reading “Wisteria @ Pleasantville BB 01/31/2020”

Back Blast – Bulletin Q at The Tank – 2/5/2020

I rolled into Vets a bit early to get the Bulletin Board. I was surprised that PK had the WHAS 11 news van there for coverage. It must have been too cold for them, as they never got out of the van. They left and came back for the COT but they must have filmedContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Bulletin Q at The Tank – 2/5/2020”

The air was crisp this morning as I pulled into the lot at the Bridge with the temperature hovering at 35 degrees.  I didn’t really know if it was going to rain or not this morning so I decided to forgo my usual elaborate Q weinke for a drummed down straight forward workout that couldContinueContinue reading “BB The Bridge @ South Posh 2/5/2020 – Cowboy Q”

Preblast- Loco at the County, 2/4/20, Grinder Q

It’s been over eight months since I’ve posted at the County. That’s terrible. But, to distract from my shameful support for my County boys, I think we’ll focus on some other numbers instead. Seven and eleven would probably be a good place to start. We’ll run a lot (sprints, not distance), crawl a lot andContinueContinue reading “Preblast- Loco at the County, 2/4/20, Grinder Q”
