Porticos in the Gloom

YHC wasn’t sure how rainy the morning would be, so taking advantage of the Steeple’s two porticos was on the weinke. Four PAX ready under the first portico at 5:30, so we start the warm-up in cadence: 15 SSH’s 15 LAC’s 15 RAC’s 15 High Knees It’s the 15th, so that’s our rep count for […]
You guys alright?

Pulled up to HHS(that’s Hibriten high, not Hickory high for all you across the bridge readers) on a very dreary morning. Light rain and about 33 degrees…perfect for a F3 workout. I saw Friar’s truck but no one else. Then in rolls Bismark and soon after…..a deputy Sheriff??? Apparently there was a report of people […]
RIP Dad 1951-2021

The Charlie Babyface Griffin Honorary Fun Run In Tanglewood For A Cure For Something
Well, well, well, the Friar has returned to the backblast game. It’s been a while, but I believe I can whip up a little something, something so the pax can have some “throne time” reading. So here’s what happened to the best of my memory. Don’t believe me? Well, you shoulda got your sorry fart-sacking […]

Merkin Jacks, no Spider Monkeys, no Flying Squirrels

4 brave souls decided to venture out on this foggy, somewhat humid (early reminder for summer), and moist morning. Other than being damp, the weather was nice with temps in the upper 40’s.
