Back blast – The Mutt – 06-23-18 – Aiken Legs

So I must admit, walking out of Molly Malone’s after the Ruck party last night and hearing a snicker here, a laugh over there, and endless “Are you really Qing tomorrow” questions, I was more than a little concerned. My hips and calves were aching and my shoulders & chest hurt so much that itContinueContinue reading “Back blast – The Mutt – 06-23-18 – Aiken Legs”

BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands

Fear slows me down from time to time. Driving home from today’s post I saw a small bird attacking a large predator bird. Do birds experience fear? I have no idea. I know that small bird was running the big bird and having a good go of it. The small bird appeared to be actingContinueContinue reading “BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands”

Pre Blast – The Mutt – 06-23-18 – I AM SO STUPID!

When I originally signed up to Q tomorrow morning I had no idea I would be doing the Capture the Flag Ruck the night before! After Gepetto pointed this out to me the other day all I could think was “You’re so f%&$ing stupid!” None to worry gentlemen, I will be ready to roll inContinueContinue reading “Pre Blast – The Mutt – 06-23-18 – I AM SO STUPID!”

Vacationing PAXs from across the countryContinueContinue reading “6/21 BB Killing Time at the #Timeshare”

Pre Blast – 6/21 – The Extender at the Mutt

Well, I finally got my results back and found out I’m .4% Native American. To celebrate this discovery, I was thinking everything we do at the Mutt tomorrow should be done Native American style (and no, this doesn’t mean all running…this is Grinder for goodness sake).  But yes, there will be some running, some crawlingContinueContinue reading “Pre Blast – 6/21 – The Extender at the Mutt”
