Arrow 5.5 Co-Q

The Thang: 8 strong posted this morning for Hickory’s one and only premier Wednesday running workout. Cheese Whiz is apparently in Wisconsin this week, so Fuse and YHC tag-teamed the substi-Q. After COT/BOM the 5.5 mile, 428 ft. of elevation gain route took the PAX down 16th Ave and behind Lowes Hardware, down 14th Ave next to […]

Yup. It happened.

Not official unless there is a flag and a backblast.  Well…the shovel flag was securely planted, and it is verified by this here backblast.  So…I guess today really happened. Warm up: X17 (today is the 17th…it’s what I do.  But the Granite boys know better than to put me on New Year’s Eve or Halloween….) […]

As They Are

I pulled into Northview and it was just me and Goodwill.  I thought for a while this would be a Bromance workout with just the two of us but then Doughboy rolled up (one of the WS faithful).  And then 1 minute late, Cousin Eddie rolled in to make it 4.  Here’s how it went: […]

Ram was a Bear?

YHC rolled into Ram this morning just shy of JST (Jordache Standard Time) and Jumped out of the car to get things going.  In my defense, YHC did run the Bear yesterday….It was Awful in the best kinda way (TWSS)…..Didn’t get home till midnight; little man had a bad dream and came rolling into bedroom […]

Route 66 > Bear

Pre Bear Arrow

Not too many brave souls out this AM.  The bear is tough race so I understand, I’m sure that your mommy understands too.   We did this:   Please keep the Fleischer family(F3 Gump) of Columbia in your prayers.  They lost their 19 year old son (F3 Zoot) this week in a drowning accident in […]

Team Hottie

It was another beautiful morning with pretty dern-nice weather. YHC had the Q at ER for the first time in a long time. Although he didn’t know it until a text came in yesterday from the Monday Run Group asking if they were going to post at ER (since Taz had the Q) or run…they […]
