10th Mountain Division, World War 2. These men did not let the winter get in the way of being Awesome. That’s right, Pax, tomorrow’s weather calls for snow. And what could be better than training in the snow? Maybe nothing. So get out into the Gloom at Long Run Park tomorrow at 0515 and getContinueContinue reading “PB: The Abyss, 0515 Mon 2-1-21, Motor Boat, Q”

The American Century continues. At least it did this past Friday, Jan. 29 at Pleasantville, when 9 men won one for the Gipper by passing the test of the Time for Choosing. They chose to get up, and get out in the cold and in the snow, and get tougher, faster, and more humble. Pax:ContinueContinue reading “BB: Pleasantville, Friday 1-29-21, Motor Boat Q: MORNING IN AMERICA”

HIMS are killing it all over the city as we start 2021. So many PAX just busting it and doing really cool stuff. I hadn’t Q’d the hourlong workout at the NEST in a long while, but felt I had to bring it. Hopefully I succeeded. Weather – Cold but clear (along with a beautifulContinueContinue reading “Backblast 1/20/21 The Nest @ The County (err..Boondocks West) – Fungi Q”

Lots of cold and lots of snow was in the forecast for the morning so figured I’d have to scrap my original plan and come up with something based on the safe space available and the # of PAX in attendance. With the snow coming down I wasn’t sure how many people would be thereContinueContinue reading “BB-Pelican Q the Agony at the County 1/28/21”

Tomorrow is the 30th day of January 2021. Crazy to believe – time flies. This will represent just my second Q at The O. The first one came the day after the Taste of the Tough back last year. Boy, was that a bad idea. Come join me tomorrow at The O. We will runContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – The Ruiner at The O – Jolly Rancher Q – 01/30/2021”

Tomorrow is going to focus on legs and glutes. No coupons, gloves if you want to keep your hands warm, wear your ruck if you’re feeling froggy. SYTIG Squid

It’s been a crazy week at work so I’m looking forward to getting out to The Nest for a change. It’s gonna be cold so we’ll be moving the whole time. We’ll pretty much run back my Q from yesterday with a few wrinkles and a bit more running to fill the extra 15 minutes.ContinueContinue reading “PreBlast – 1/30/21 The NEST at The County – Fungi Q”

Sometimes when it’s cold and dark, you have to make a decision. A decision about what kind of day it’s going to be, and what kind of man you want to be. Tomorrow, decide to make it a winter’s morning in America. Come to the shining city on the hill. Even if we turn outContinueContinue reading “PB: Pleasantville 1-29-21, Motorboat Q”

I wish Jeffersontown was closer. I love the vibe and feel of working out at The Vets. Something about the monument and the way it perfectly fits our COP and COT. The flags flying overhead with the reminders on the park benches with words that honor our service men and women. Words like: honor, courage,ContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – The Tank at The Vets – 01/27/2021”

Nothing too Fancy tomorrow boys….just a good old fashion beat down. Don’t let the cold weather keep you in the fartsack. I don’t get up for easy and this one is going to be tough. Bring a coupon, gloves, and a can do attitude. SYITG DYNO

It amazes me that 1) I’ve been doing this 2.5 yrs and 2) that I still don’t sleep great the night before a Q. I pretty much knew what I wanted to do, but knew the weather could throw a wrinkle into it…it did..kind of. I showed up and the parking lot was chunky ice.ContinueContinue reading “BackBlast 1/28/21 The Moonshiner @ The Boondocks – Fungi Q”

Come get baptized at the Garden to earn an extra beverage or three this weekend. Coupons, gloves, running shoes, positive attitude – bring it all. Don’t forget we get an early start on Fridays: 5:15-6:15am.

We ran a lot this morning.  I was clear on that plan in the pre-blast so was pretty pumped to see the regular Abyss crew was pretty much all there (no surprise really…the Abyss boys are always putting in work).  There were two surprises though as Plumb Bob made his first post at the Abyss (andContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast Wednesday 01-27-2021 – The Escalator @ The Abyss”

Come scale snowy mountains in The Garden tomorrow. Bring gloves and coupon. SYITGarden Gypsy

Making my return to the The Mutt tomorrow for another grind-it-out beatdown that will have you forgetting that it’s 25 degrees. We will run, Merkin, and all the rest. Let’s get after it! SYITG -Russ

It’s gonna be chilly in the morning, so we’ll keep moving. Come on out for a classic beatdown. We’ll probably do some good ol’ fashioned Pearls on String, Triple Nickel, 11s, etc. No Coupons needed. SYITG – Fungi

My last two playlists were “Feel Good Country” and silence. Going to make up for it tomorrow with rap music that contains curse words. Bring a coupon and your buddies to come get the Ghost Flag. SYITG Pelican

Night before the workout at I was at my parent’s house starting the prep work for the next day by asking my sister a few important questions that would prove useless the next day. Also sent Backflop a text to see if he would be there which he said yes and he’s bring his lightsContinueContinue reading “BB-Pelican Q Motivator at the Abyss 1/25/21”

Coupon required. Gloves and fast shoes recommended. Let’s go. Domino

Tomorrow is Wednesday. The middle of the week. A time where we all evaluate our to-do lists and ponder the things that we should have done on Monday and Tuesday. But alas, there are still Thursday and Friday ahead…plenty of time. So, on Wednesday, perhaps we should just sit back with the cruise control on,ContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Jolly Rancher Q – The Tank @ Vets – 01/27/2021”

Get to the Abyss bright and early tomorrow and get ready to run. Bring a coupon for some work during running breaks. There will be running (just to be clear). Don’t forget the new start time 0515. Come getcha some.-Dauber

LETS GOOOOO! All this rain making me crazy! Who’s ready for a BEATDOWN?!! Bring Coupons/gloves/A WILL TO WORK

Come out to the county tomorrow for a tabada style workout. Bring a coupon, gloves, and waders for our soggy workout. Good thing we have our coupons to hold us down in these flash flood conditions. Syitg, Tidwell
