Like Clockwork
A few weeks ago, YHC prepared a clock-based weinke that didn’t fit timewise into 45 minutes, so YHC decided to take on the next few exercises in the lineup. We made it through 4 of the 12 last time; maybe we can cover another third. It’s 5:30 and seven PAX are ready to go, so […]
F3 Hickory Turns 5
This past Saturday at 0654 YHC stood in the gloom reminiscing of days gone by and thinking of the last 5 years. Ah yes, he remembered it like it was yesterday…(pan to dream sequence). It was March 2014 just hours before the start of the Palmetto 200 relay. There YHC (the slightly nervous FNG) was, […]
It’s a Wheelbarrow Thing
I tried my best to EH the PAX to sign up for the 5 day challenge. Not nearly as intense as the POH, but we’re getting there. I had 3 other PAX decide to take it one. Goodwill, Audit, and Snips. Snips is even going for 6. However, I really need even numbers for this […]
Adapt, Improvise, Overcome
“Adapt, improvise, and overcome”. YHC has been out of the military for almost 19 years now, but not too long after he arrived at the ER this morning the wise words of Chief Gorence (AKA. the most badass USAF Chief that YHC ever knew) began ringing loudly in his ears. The PAX had obviously started one traditional lap of the ER […]
Where my Pax at?
That’s the question on PBR’s mind until he saw Swinger pull in at 5:14AM. We posted the shovel flag and then began… warmup 20 SSH (pbr’s cadence count game was strong. Saying this because it’s funny hearing cadence called with only one other pax responding) Finkle Swings 10 each leg it’s just the two of […]
Infinity Sub Q
The Q was a no show…..so the Master Q stepped in and delegated. He called my number so I had to answer the bell. So there were 4 runners……and then there was me. Here is how it went. Ran to the parking Lot at the little circle Then ran the gravel path to the little […]
Whats a “Gherkin”?
For the past few weeks, YHC has experienced some knee pain which is believed to be from an iliotibial band (IT band) syndrome. Whatever it is…YHC knows that good stretching before and after a workout sure does help ease the pain. Shoutout to our man Suppository for demostrating a few exercises and stretches at Organ […]
Spring, Frost, Hills, Run
1st Day of Spring: check Frost on car: check Powder in 17 layers: check, check Funyon in tow w/ Pit Stop (aka his dog): check Squints pulls up in car with headlamps blasting: check Cheese Whiz shows up late: false. Dude was actually 1 minute early. A new record Phlegm with tennis visor on backwards: […]
It’s Tuesday. Why are we running to ER?
YHC didn’t realize he had the Q until getting dressed for Howitzer. I figured it out on the drive in… Warmups: SSH, ATT, IST, Humpties, etc. I’ve noticed that Publix really likes to call people out on form during warmups. I like it. I’ll try to get my arms above my head for SSH’s next […]
Chick-fil-a was selling lunch early.
Lots of discussion about CFA the night before my Q, so your YHC spent some time doing a little menu research and found some very interesting calorie facts. Our PAX frequent the respectable establishment (Aye Commando!) and were in need of some introduction to some nutritional information they may have overlooked. Five of us got […]
