It is Q school week and it was an opportunity to share our insights with pax. Checking out the weasel shaker, this was my 87th lifetime Q. It does get easier as you Q more. After 6 weeks I leapt into my VQ. It was fitting one as the first official County Q. To thoseContinueContinue reading “8/24/22 – Meter Maid Q School – The Foundry at the County”

BB – 8/17/22 – The Foundry at the County – Meter Maid Q
YHC led an old school heavy where we met at the playground. I came in a few minutes early to unload the back of my Explorer. I had plenty of toys including the potted plants (Sorinex Center Mass Bells) and GoRuck sandbags. Brown Water was the first to show up. Others arrived (Honeycomb, Huey andContinueContinue reading “BB – 8/17/22 – The Foundry at the County – Meter Maid Q”
8.17.22 Pre Blast: The Range @ The Patriot – BigBird Q
No creative theme. No pic to entice you make it out (mostly because WordPress sux for me lately). No semi witty segue creating mystery and clues as of what to expect. Just know that YHC promises two things to you ITG. 1) We will work hard. And 2) you will leave feeling better than whenContinueContinue reading “8.17.22 Pre Blast: The Range @ The Patriot – BigBird Q”

BB- The Agony at the County -8/11/22 – Meter Maid Q
DeVitto needed a Q last night so I jumped at the opportunity to lead. I knew I wanted to get some miles and it would be simple. Go around the Pewee Valley loop and stop along the way and do various exercises. Provided the disclaimer and we were on our way. It was simple itContinueContinue reading “BB- The Agony at the County -8/11/22 – Meter Maid Q”

8.5.22 Back Blast: Wisteria @ Pleasantville
Insta Doodle and I have gotten pretty close over the last couple of months. The first time I met him was at a P’Ville beatdown. Immediately after the workout I go into my gym at work for some EC weightlifting before the workday and this dude comes up to me and says, “weren’t you justContinueContinue reading “8.5.22 Back Blast: Wisteria @ Pleasantville”
8.5.22 Pre Blast: Wisteria @ Pleasantville – Instadoodle /BigBird Co-Q
Holy hell!! What’s that flying in at 0530 in the morning? Is that a DoodleBird?! Not sure what that is? We’ll…come to the place where false advertisement will be at an all time high. Where the most pleasant of all AO’s will not be pleasant at all. Where you will find that hybridization couldn’t haveContinueContinue reading “8.5.22 Pre Blast: Wisteria @ Pleasantville – Instadoodle /BigBird Co-Q”
8.1.22 Back Blast: The Incubator @ Posh
It was an Abacus Q on 7.18.22. When PAX gathered together, a touch before 0530, it didn’t take PK long to realize that everyone in attendance began their F3 journeys in 2017. To describe these PAX some might even throw out the acronym “OGs.” PK certainly did and felt moved to, at that moment, announceContinueContinue reading “8.1.22 Back Blast: The Incubator @ Posh”
7/29/22 – The Defender at the Patriot – Meter Maid Q
Looking at the weather the night before, I was worried it might rain but it held off. I had a rough idea of what I wanted to do at the Patriot to mix it up. Right at 5:30AM, a plethora of flags came in and were placed by the Colonel Oldham statute. (When you haveContinueContinue reading “7/29/22 – The Defender at the Patriot – Meter Maid Q”
The Defender at the Patriot – 7/29/22 – Meter Maid Q

BB- The Loco – 7/19/22 – Meter Maid Q
A few weeks ago Pelican took my Q and site Q duties while on vacation. This was my week to repay him. It was hot and muddy 75 degrees to start the workout. The picnic remnants had been cleaned up from the last weekend. There were 14 pax ready to tackle the day: Double Pump,ContinueContinue reading “BB- The Loco – 7/19/22 – Meter Maid Q”

BB – The Ruiner at the O – Meter Maid Q – 7/16/22
Dot had reached out earlier this month to Q where it all began for Louisville. Dot and YHC did a preruck and in 3.5 miles which still allowed me 15 for Dot, Patches and me to setup for the O’s first potted plant tour. We had 7 pax who made it out (Dot [R], MarvinContinueContinue reading “BB – The Ruiner at the O – Meter Maid Q – 7/16/22”
7.5.22 Back Blast: The Planetarium @ The Boondocks
Virginia Slims…or “Slims” as I’ve come to affectionally know him, reached out about 4 weeks ago to see if I would grab up the day after Independence Day workout at The Boondocks. Ultimately the answer would be yes but I am one who likes to indulge in the good time festivities that the 4th bringsContinueContinue reading “7.5.22 Back Blast: The Planetarium @ The Boondocks”
7.5.22 Pre Blast: The Planetarium @ The Boondocks – BigBird Q
Man!!! Couldn’t have asked for a better 4th of July! You likely enjoyed some good food, fun and family fellowship. All alliteration aside we are here now on the rebound of an epic extra day weekend. There is only one thing better to do. Start your short week off on the right two feet forContinueContinue reading “7.5.22 Pre Blast: The Planetarium @ The Boondocks – BigBird Q”
BB- North Posh – 7/4/22
After coming back from Scout Camp in Canton, NC, YHC picked up the Q for North Posh. It is a great spot for running. If you haven’t been there, check it out sometime soon. With it being a holiday, the 7AM start time didn’t make it seem so much like the usual gloom. I wasn’tContinueContinue reading “BB- North Posh – 7/4/22”
4.23.22 Back Blast – 5 year Convergence at The O-riginal
The Back Blast. Ever so important. It lets us know what we did. It reminds us of who was there. It’s a Q’s representation of the CSAUP (completely stupid and utterly pointless) stuff that one would translate from the wienke to real life. (Pause a second to take this next one in…) And sometimes itContinueContinue reading “4.23.22 Back Blast – 5 year Convergence at The O-riginal”
Pre-blast: 6/28/22 – Bag of Wrenches @ The O
Join me @ The O tomorrow morning for a you vs. you, quality over quantity style full body workout. We’ll be doing AMRAP while focusing on form all set to a banger of a soundtrack.

6.18.22 Back Blast – The Ruiner @ The O
Growing up my Dad was a wanna-be hippie. Our family car was a VW Vanagon, my Mom drove a convertible VW Rabbit and at any time he would have two VW Bugs in the driveway (still does to this day). He had to pick out softball uniforms for the team one year and chose tyeContinueContinue reading “6.18.22 Back Blast – The Ruiner @ The O”

6.17.22 Back Blast: The Avenger @ The Patriot
I was ahead of schedule. I had all my stuff ready the night before. I woke up early and was out the door, sure that I had plenty of time for a nice easy drive out to LaGrange. As I walked outside, it was still hot but not like the prior days this week whereContinueContinue reading “6.17.22 Back Blast: The Avenger @ The Patriot”
6.18.22 Pre Blast: The Ruiner @ The O-riginal – BigBird Q
So…not really…but it might be perceived. Mostly, just wanted to catch your attention. My wife’s been asking me what I want to do for Father’s Day and really, I’m pretty easily pleased. As long as I’m with my family I’m happy. But it did get me thinking. What’s something that I really like? I wasContinueContinue reading “6.18.22 Pre Blast: The Ruiner @ The O-riginal – BigBird Q”
6.17.22 Pre Blast: The Defender @ The Patriot – BigBird Q
Been a little on the warm side lately. Tomorrow will offer much of the same as every other morning this week ITG. But never fear! There is some sweet relief on the horizon (if only for a couple days). But….you have to earn it! Come out tomorrow. Put some work in with me. And feelContinueContinue reading “6.17.22 Pre Blast: The Defender @ The Patriot – BigBird Q”
6.9.22 Back Blast: Big Kapowski @ Bayside
Inspiration for this WO would come easy. This week I have been doing homework listening to REO Speedwagon, Styx & Loverboy on my ad free, 6 month free trial Apple Music membership in preparation for Saturday’s concert at Riverbend. At some point during reminiscing I remembered that I had the Q at Bayside. Bayside, beingContinueContinue reading “6.9.22 Back Blast: Big Kapowski @ Bayside”
6.7.22 Back Blast – BO at Goshen
I had been to Goshen only once and it was on their opening Thursday. I’ve been meaning to get back but it seemed like I was always being pulled somewhere else on Thursdays. Now, as the quickest growing AO in the region following The Patriot, Tuesday is an option as well. When Tuesdays went fromContinueContinue reading “6.7.22 Back Blast – BO at Goshen”
