BB 6/17/19 – The Silo @ North Posh – Team Cowboy vs. Team Viking

As expected, Vikings don’t always sharpen their axes before they head into battle.  I’ll just go ahead and say that Viking is already planning the re-match.  So the first Team Cowboy vs. Team Viking beat down is in the books and to the victor goes the back blast.  As they say, the winners always writeContinueContinue reading “BB 6/17/19 – The Silo @ North Posh – Team Cowboy vs. Team Viking”

The Blender 6.19.19 PreBlast

Of the last 3 times I’ve posted, 2 of the WOs were “competitions”. I like this idea because I think more often than not, in these scenarios we push ourselves harder than usual…because losing sucks. I don’t know exactly what we’re doing yet, but it will be competition based. I suggest wearing off-road shoes if youContinueContinue reading “The Blender 6.19.19 PreBlast”
