Pre-Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville – 02/22/2019
Work has kept me away from the gloom more than I’d like over the past few weeks. Fortunately, I knew it’d be this way, which is why I scheduled to Q on Friday — selfishly, to force myself to not use work as an excuse for not posting. I hope you’ll do the same inContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville – 02/22/2019”
Backblast – #TheExtender @ The Mutt 2/21

I was enjoying the peace and quiet of the gloom. I reflected on howContinueContinue reading “Backblast – #TheExtender @ The Mutt 2/21”
BackBlast – Bag of Wrenches 2/19/19 Abacus
16 PAX turned out to get better with Abacus in a UvU workout. YHC modified early into the Q and after a quick mosey to the tennis courts PAX knocked down AMRAP merkins for 60 seconds. Turns out the PAX is strong and is in shape according to USA Today. COP for proper warm-up. SSH,ContinueContinue reading “BackBlast – Bag of Wrenches 2/19/19 Abacus”
2/21 Bayside backblast #KiloQ #DefeatTheFartsack
Lately many of us have been feeling like Homer here, YHC included. It’s easy to make excuses to stay in the fartsack when the alarm sounds at 0500. Find the accountability mirror and it becomes much easier to put two feet on the ground when the time comes. Sometimes that means you HC to aContinueContinue reading “2/21 Bayside backblast #KiloQ #DefeatTheFartsack”
Pre-blast – Temple of Gloom – 2-21-19 – The O at Seneca Park
Looking forward to making my return “Q” at ToG tomorrow morning. Last time I Q’d there it was Q week and there was a lot of talking/explaining. I promise none of us will be talking tomorrow. Looking forward to it! SYITG -Catfish
2/21/19 Pre-Blast at the Agony
It might rain it might not. What I can predict, is we will get better tomorrow together. We shall run, do Burpees and Merkins, maybe some Mary and have fun doing it. SYITG 5:30 at the County Mama’s Boy👊🏻
2/21 Bayside preblast #GetUncomfortable
I can’t wait to roll into Collins Bayside high tomorrow for a gloomy Beatdown. We are going to get uncomfortable, so be ready to work hard. SYITG -Kilo
2/14 Valentine’s Day Backblast #KiloLoveBag at #ToG
You’ve been waiting patiently for my fartsack of a Backblast. I have to continue to live up to the reputation I’ve worked so hard to establish. Pax showed out in droves to check out Kilos gearlander for the big day. This year I decided to dial it down on the spandex and dial it upContinueContinue reading “2/14 Valentine’s Day Backblast #KiloLoveBag at #ToG”
Backblast – 2/20/19. The Tank @ Veterans
I wondered how many would brave the elements when I was awakened by the bolt of lightening and thunderclap this morning. Turns out 4 – and myself make 5! Methane, Deep Dish, Drysdale, Aerobie, and Bob Ross Q Weather 32 and Pouring. We huddled up (all 5 of us) under the pavilion. The Disclaimer wasContinueContinue reading “Backblast – 2/20/19.

The Not So SMURPH: Back Blast 2.16.19

At 0400, I met up with Alexa at the O Posh, and we planned to meet up with others who were starting at North Posh. WeContinueContinue reading “The Not So SMURPH: Back Blast 2.16.19”
PreBlast for The Blender at The Mutt, an interview with Roosevelt E. Roosevelt
My good friend Roosevelt E. Roosevelt won’t make it to the WO tomorrow, but I called to get his thoughts on the conditions. What do you think about my Weinke Roosevelt? “It’s hot! Damn hot! Real hot! Hottest things is my shorts. I could cook things in it. A little crotch pot cooking.” Thanks. HowContinueContinue reading “PreBlast for The Blender at The Mutt, an interview with Roosevelt E. Roosevelt”

Backblast – 2/16/19. The Hurt @ the Mutt
As others on here have noted, something great about getting to lead is dealing with changing circumstances, and frequently at this time of year the changes are in the weather. I experienced this when I Qd at the Hurt last Saturday. I prepared the Weinke a few days ahead of time, before hearing forecasts forContinueContinue reading “Backblast – 2/16/19. The Hurt @ the Mutt”
Diablo PreBlast for Heavy BO at The County
You’ll never believe it, but it’s going to be raining in the morning. But, as my man Nugget always says, you’ll only get wet once. Bring a weight plate, a kettlebell, or something heavy so you can move it. A total body thrashing is a given. SYITG Diablo
Preblast – Iceman Q at the Extender at The Mutt 2/21 @0530
If you have been to one of my Q’s, you know what to expect. If have not, come join me and we will have a hopping good time. SYITG – Iceman
PB – Grinder @ The Bridge 2/20
It’s been over six months since I’ve Q’d at the Poshlands and I’m excited to get the chance again. I remember there’s a huge covered pavilion there. We’ll be able to see it from a distance as we run and carry coupons through the steady rain and driving winds on Wednesday morning. Can’t wait! RememberContinueContinue reading “PB – Grinder @ The Bridge 2/20”

I’ve got some nastiness planned for the morning. Be ready to work. Don’t get up for easy. -Porkchop
Back in the Saddle 2.18.19 BB for The Incubator
Following my VQ on 3.19.18, I posted 132 times the remainder of the year & 17% of the time I was the Q again. For me getting to Q isn’t just designing a WO & instructing the PAX what to do. Qing is the opportunity to lead a group of men (whether it be 3ContinueContinue reading “Back in the Saddle 2.18.19 BB for The Incubator”
2/16/19 – Back Blast; the Ruiner @ the “O”
This is late; I apologize, but I blame the beer. As many of you know, Tail Spin went off Saturday afternoon and was an excellent event. Kudos to all of the Pax involved. Great effort and a great success. Weather – Cold, but reasonable in the 30s. Despite the threat of snow, no precipitation andContinueContinue reading “2/16/19 – Back Blast; the Ruiner @ the “O””
2.18.19 O BO BB: Beer can cause questionable decision making.
Backstory- This past weekend at the Ruiner the PAX were all a buzz with talk of the TailSpin Ale Fest taking place later that afternoon. I bring this up for a few reasons but understand, we talked about this for at least 10 of the 60 minutes of the WO. Buschhhhh had a ticket forContinueContinue reading “2.18.19 O BO BB: Beer can cause questionable decision making.”
2.13.19 BB The Heavy at The County
Alexa has done a nice job getting the Heavy started at The County. Between him and Bulletin, they have laid down some solid free weight workouts, keeping us moving and working the entire time.

BackBlast – BlackOps #F3Runners 2/16/19 Abacus Q
PAX – Little Jerry and Abacus Q PAX met at St. Al’s, #theCounty, at 0430 for a 20 miler around eastern Jefferson County. The weather was perfect: 30 degrees, light breeze, and NO rain! LJ is a beast!

The Incubator 2.18.19 Pre-Blast
It’s not by preference, but 12.19.18 was the last time I had the privilege to Q (40 days ago).

Trekkie, Bus, Le Pew, Kimble, Viking, Cowboy and Fungi met up at McD’s for some good 2nd F and some hotcakes/coffee. 3 Non-F3 2.0’s jumped in with the Pax as well for breakfast. (Reese/Sydney – Fungi) and (Sam – Kimble). #F3Dads
Post Blast – The Nest/County Saturday 2/16
Some came because they knew it was a heavy run day, some were “pleasantly” surprised :). Goal for today was to run 5k! For a change of pace we went off campus into surrounding neighborhoods, stopping every 1/2 mile or so to do 25 merkins, 25 big boys, 25 plank jacks. We finished over 5kContinueContinue reading “Post Blast – The Nest/County Saturday 2/16”

February 11, 2019 F3 – morning workout – North Posh Sorry so late with the BB but had a great time with first Q! Great turn out, 17 strong. The Mutt showed up in numbers. Had to make the day count.
