Six pax showed up this fine morning. No, I didn’t say we started off with a six-pack this morning…have some respect, even though it might have been acceptable with our “late” start of 0530. In any event, we began with light stretching, then cruised to the bottom of the boat-ramp to begin our nautical theme.ContinueContinue reading “06.25.21 Back-Blast: Kitty Litter Q @ Abyss”

Got to witness the train coming down Main Street at 5:205 this morning.

We took a stroll around the squareContinueContinue reading “BB Squid Q – BO @ The Patriot 06.25.21”

The Q/Event Calendar still says “0500”…but we’re sleeping in these days and not gettin’ after it until 0530! Sleeping in like a teenager. Since the Q is just getting back in town, logging 30k-step days in Boston & other parts of MA, we’ll need to bust some blisters and shake off a bit of I-tax.ContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast 6.25.21 – Gladiator @ Abyss 0530 hrs.

As I mentioned in the PreBlast, yesterday was a special day, my oldest son’s 8th birthday and my 400th post. So I decided I would have some fun with both of those numbers. 0530 and the disclaimer was given. I am NOT a professional, the men who showed up chose to do so of theirContinueContinue reading “BB – 6.22.21- The Cliffs at The Garden”

Tomorrow we will AMRAP the AMRAPs for time. Oh yea its a Thursday lets get weird. No coupons. No Bear Crawls! SYITG!!

Since I know Jolly Rancher will have something to say, let me clarify something quickly. I wrote the BB yesterday because it was a “Before Blast” and today is the PB or “Post Blast.” See, it had nothing to do with me not paying attention and getting ahead of myself. Anyways, on to the matterContinueContinue reading “PB Squid Q – Escalator @ The Abyss 06.23.21”

When planning this W I had running in mind. I am not the biggest fan of running so that’s why we did it. We started off by running to the front lot to do some COP, then we started at the first light post and ran to each one starting off with five burpees, increasingContinueContinue reading “Tidwell bb 6.15.21 the county”

Gentlemen: we will be enjoying the preview of Fall tomorrow at The O with a run-heavy. Gloves are suggested. No coupons.

My sincerest apologies. Was a busy weekend and this slipped my mind. The PreBlast mentioned I was going hunting. Subprime, Wabbits, and Jitterbug proved they weren’t scared and ready to embrace the suck. And suck it did. 0530 disclaimer was given. COP ensued with SSH, grass grabbers, toy soldiers, abe vigodas, and the always usedContinueContinue reading “Way TOO Late BB – 6.17 Cloverfield at The Garden”
