Back 2 back Q’s following Independence Day? You Crazy Bird! That’s what I was thinking. As it turns out, my super sensitive, high anxiety, 4 yr old Golden Retriever (F3 Sir Licks A lot) told us he couldn’t be left alone; it would be an early night trying to pacify him from all of theContinueContinue reading “Way BackBlast 7.5/7.6 Vets/Boondocks – Tied into One”

I have a hard time saying “no” to challenges…well, except for rucking challenges (working on that one Pizza/Lambeau). As a result I have a bunch of exercising to get in each day before I lay my head on the pillow. To remedy this (for tomorrow anyway), I plan to put my green check mark onContinueContinue reading “7.6.23 PreBlast: The Moonshiner @ The Boondocks – BigBird Q”

Summer is officially here as of 9 days ago. That means a lot of things to many…but one thing in particular as it pertains to this challenge. There are Sad Clowns out there all over the city that have no kids in schools, have no reason not to get up earlier and are ripe forContinueContinue reading “2023 July FNG Challenge”

So…you can’t hardly have a challenge centered around the back blast without having a back blast at its conclusion. I know, I know… “Bird,” you’re likely thinking, “it’s almost July and you’re just now getting this blast out?” Well, I had to stay true to the artistry and you know writers sometimes have to takeContinueContinue reading “2023 Walt Whitman Challenge for Literary Mastery and Good With Words – winner reveal”

So… it was Thursday, the eve of the day I would have the Q at Vets. I was still working my wienke waiting for inspiration. Then it came to me. Vets is an AO like no other. Hell, it’s a park like no other. As you approach off Taylorsville Rd, you see the tank andContinueContinue reading “6.16.23 Back Blast: The Chopper @ Veterans Memorial”

Your Bird’s been mixing in weight training along with run training and ITG CSAUP activities in 2023. So when it came time for this Heavy Q at The Foundry I was pumped to show off some of my routine. The thing though, that’s tough about planning for a heavy, is that when you bring yourContinueContinue reading “6.14.23 The Foundry @ The County”

We bout to get swole and Biggie tomorrow!!

Normally, I’m a “come in hot” type of dude. But occasionally, I’m early. Today was one of those days. I decided on a pre run to get the blood moving. The night prior I was high on endorphins after the Night Ranger and posted out that I would be doing so. Once it was outContinueContinue reading “6.8.23 Back Blast: Temple of Gloom @ The O”

So…peep this. I leave work early with ease. All the backroads I take are ‘smooth sailing.’ Get home to change out from “the man” to put on my F3 ITG gearlander, grab the tailgater and K-9 (Oliver, soon to be renamed). Head to Kroger to scoop the Gatorades and the long a$$ line at theContinueContinue reading “6.7.23 Back Blast: Night Rangers @ Vets”

The last time I had the Q at The Nest was over 8 months ago. Eight months!! Entirely too long if you ask me, a former Site Q of said Nest. So…to those of you that may recall, in 2018, I was site 1st site Q at The Nest when The County was blowing upContinueContinue reading “6.3.23 Back Blast: The Nest @ The County”

Didn’t sleep much last night. In part because I was really excited to show my wienke to The O fellers. But mostly because I didn’t know who would make it out. I mean you had the Fountain of Youth at The Boondocks, Huggies celebrating his birthday, Ed getting in his 32nd Q of the month,ContinueContinue reading “5.23.23 Back Blast: Bag of Wrenches @ The O, riginal”
