Pax: Face and Zartan (co-Qs) Conditions: clear sky and chilly. Gearlander: NB kicks, Nike Elite socks pulled high, LuLu short shorts and Patagonia base layer and TAc Hat When I pulled up at 0525 to only see Face’s rig I had a feeling our numbers may be low today. Shockingly my thought proved right asContinueContinue reading “Sojourn Heavy BO BB: Warm Hugs”

WE FOUND THE MOUNTAIN BackBlast @ Norton Commons – 10/19/2018

20 PAX (2 FNG’s) came out to Pleasantville for Uncle Rico’s beat down.  Needless to say I finally found the mountain that Norton Commons so graciously created.  Didn’t realize Pleasantville had already started showing signs of winter.  I gave the PAX the disclaimer and we were off. PAX: Q Uncle Rico Airplane, Pork Chop, Fergie,ContinueContinue reading “WE FOUND THE MOUNTAIN BackBlast @ Norton Commons – 10/19/2018”

Agony BackBlast – @ the County – 8/18/18

A cold morning (debatable PAX car readings from 38 to 42 degrees) out in county, but a strong St Al’s showing nonetheless at 24 strong. The morning went like this. I gave a brief overview of the routine we would be going through, a quick disclaimer (no FNGs) and we were off. First thing, aContinueContinue reading “Agony BackBlast – @ the County – 8/18/18”

10/18 the O Backblast #templeofgloom

Ooo…this one snuck up on me. Realized on Tuesday I didn’t have a Q scheduled for today. No worries, I’ll handle. Recently eclipsing the 200+ post mark means I’ve seen and done it all. Time to revisit a workout that stood out to me from the past. Thanks Red Roof. 😊 Q – OJ PAX:ContinueContinue reading “10/18 the O Backblast #templeofgloom”

Fergie Q at the “Agony” – Pre Blast 10/18/18

Tomorrow we are going to hold the Iron Al’s Challenge. As the name would suggest, this is going to be a whole lot of you against you (a la the Iron Pax Challenge). Airplane told me there was too much running, and not enough reps. So, I doubled the reps to keep him happy (butContinueContinue reading “Fergie Q at the “Agony” – Pre Blast 10/18/18″

BackBlast – BlackOps Sawyer 10/16/18 Abacus Q

The County’s growth has been remarkable. The site averages nearly 25 PAX per workout (weekdays). Airplane and I have looked for other suitable AO’s in the OC, but no luck. Enter Sawyer Park…We heard, it’s too dark. Well the parking lot is well lit. Our eyes adjusted as we ran around the fitness trail asContinueContinue reading “BackBlast – BlackOps Sawyer 10/16/18 Abacus Q”

Maxi VQ @thebridge Pre-blast 10/17

Unfortunately for you guys, I had a weak moment this morning at Kroger.  I was picking up cupcakes for National Pharmacy Technician Day, but somehow left with cupcakes AND two donuts.  I selfishly devoured the donuts on the way to work and, of course, couldn’t resist partaking in the cupcakes.  In response to my weakness,ContinueContinue reading “Maxi VQ @thebridge Pre-blast 10/17”

Zoolander VQ at “The Tank” PreBlast 10.17.18

When the Neon Tank “Kilo” asks you for a favor….you do it. I’d do anything for this guy. So when he asked me to Q last Wednesday- I said “No.” I actually said, “No…I’m outta town. But I’ll take the next Wednesday.” And the next Wednesday is now this Wednesday, so I need to comeContinueContinue reading “Zoolander VQ at “The Tank” PreBlast 10.17.18”

Back Blast The Loco @ The County 10/16/18 – Fungi VQ

I started F3 a little less than 2 months ago after a @PewPew HL down range in Nashville. I knew I couldn’t always be a taker, so I committed to Q pretty shortly but with enough distance to make sure I stuck with it for a while.  I hemmed and hawed over various Wienkes butContinueContinue reading “Back Blast The Loco @ The County 10/16/18 – Fungi VQ”

Back Blast – 10.11.2018 – VQ Maize – The Extender @ The Mutt
