Leisurely Tour of Mountain View

  YHC planned this workout in January, for January 29th. It included 29 exercises, with most comprised of 29 reps. However, on January 28th, YHC got hit in the face with the flu and barely left his bed until the month of February arrived. Since February doesn’t sport a 29th, at least this year, and […]

Q #2

This was my 2nd Q in 3 days so I was looking for something a little different than my normal Type A, OCD, or Pattern workout (as Cuz Eddie would say). I did not exactly get away from the pattern but I did do a workout I’ve never done before. This was a HBC inspired […]

4 Corners

I feel like I end up doing a lot of the same workout because I do what is familiar and easy to remember. So when I started to come up with my Q the night before I tried to be a little different but keep to something we have done before. I have never done […]

Substituting for the win!

The PAX all showed up Saturday morning at the Den hoping the rain would hold off and not sure what to expect. We haven’t heard from Woodie in a while(self proclaimed fart sacker of cold weather), so we didn’t know if he would show. Once the time came, the show had to go on, so yours […]

“23”

F3 “300” 2/23/19 QIC: Kleenex PAX: UdderButter, Banjo, Twig, Taterhole, Chewy, Pippy, Mercedes, TinkerBell, Castaway 41 degrees “23” What does the number mean to you? Greatest Number? – Let’s consider: 1. a prime number, as are 2 and 3. 2. Michael Jordan’s number. 3. the NBA record for most consecutive points scored by a single […]

Snips Birthday!! Party of 5, I mean 6, wait…7!!!

YHC arrives early for his birthday because he is Q and he did not watch 1 second of the infamous shoe debacle of the first 2019 meeting of UNC – DUKE. I got almost 7 hours of sleep and arrived at the AO around 5ish. I had to get some bricks out for the warm-up. […]

The Walls Came Down

CrossFit Dude: 5AM in the morning. Alarm awakens him. Latte? Check. Hair Products? Check. Temperature controlled environment? Check. Actual Weights? Check. Yoga Mat? Check. Well, not today! This morning we marched(ran) around CrossFit Lenoir 7 times. And on the 7th day(lap), the Walls came tumbling down. We exposed them to the elements and the F3 […]

Tour of Viewmont (aka E[x]presso)

YHC was up feeding the baby at 4am, so I got an early start heading to Expresso. Prerun wheels up at 4:54, got in a solid 2.9 miles at an easy pace. Rolled into the parking lot at 5:22, still the only one there. Tooth Fairy soon joined, then Shamus and Ferdinand and others, and […]

Q school at The Station

Today was my first solo Q School and it occurred out at The Station. I don’t really get nervous anymore before Qs but for some reason for Q school this morning I was a little nervous. For those who have not been out to this AO you need to get out there, it is a great […]

Time Travel at the Mount

A light drizzle at the Mount didn’t stop 7 PAX from getting up early to get better. It’s 5:30, and all of us are regulars, so YHC jumps into the warm-up. And by “jump”, YHC means “side-straddle hops in cadence”: Warm-up: 12 Side-straddle Hops in cadence 12 Humpies in cadence 12 Small Arm Circles in […]
