The HIMs of the Abyss got to enjoy an impressive sound and light show during their beatdown this A.M. Tunes provided by YHC and the lights courtesy of the Sky Q. At 5:15, I took a quick headcount and realized that 3 PAX could not effectively play 4 Corners… so I called an audible andContinueContinue reading “Game Day @ The Abyss: 8.10.20: Harbaugh Q: Backblast”

You know when a good idea turns into a bad one. Well, that was my Q at the Foundry this past week. I thought it would be clever to inchworm all the around St. Als (.5 mile) and stop along the way for some PT. Not a good idea and more on that later. PAX:ContinueContinue reading “BB – The Foundry @ The County 8/5/20”

It’s was a cool crisp morning when YHC arrived at the Abyss. Since there was little prep work for the WO, I sat on a bench and looked at the stars. Shortly, Uncle Sam arrived. We chatted and waited for more PAX to show up. As the minutes ticked away, I was thinking that itContinueContinue reading “Backblast: 8.7.20: Harbaugh Q @ The Abyss”

This morning was another great day in the gloom.  Flip Flop must have been equally as excited about the crisp weather, because he showed up at 5:28am vs. 5:29am.  Spent some time yesterday planning the workout and decided to have a little trivia fun with the PAX who dared to show. PAX: Flip Flop HolyContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Jolly Rancher’s Trivia Day for WHAS Crusade for Children – Inferno @ The Station”

This is what I remember the hill looking like at the Garden. After Friday it will be etched into my brain. Get out and get better with me tomorrow. No coupons needed, may want gloves. SYITG Pelican

Every non-profit organization has been challenged with key fundraising events being cancelled, postponed, re-purposed or re-imagined in light of COVID-19 [which, by the way, sucks].  Unfortunately, the WHAS Crusade for Children is no different with the delay of their annual telethon happening this weekend, August 8th and 9th. As a member of a local fire departmentContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – WHAS Crusade for Children Q with Jolly Rancher – The Inferno @ The Station”

Also known as Pelican’s birthday Q. I was super excited to plan my bday Q and even more excited when some of the hard commits started rolling in. A couple of FNGs were slated to attend and the weather couldn’t have been better. I stayed up late working on a playlist that was full ofContinueContinue reading “BB-GROWRUCK infomercial at the Loco at County 8.4.20”

When Russdiculous (still the greatest basketball player to wear the #2 in NCAA history) asked me to Q, I couldn’t wait. First time Q’ing at the O. I wanted to keep us moving and make it hard (bc that’s what us Garden PAX are used to), and because I just got back from vacation andContinueContinue reading “Bag of Wrenches – 8.4.20 w/ Jewel”
