Definitely Sketchy
YHC had the opportunity to guest Q at the “Organ Grinder”. I knew right away we weren’t running since this is not a running AO. I’m guessing no one told the pre runners. Well, we must get started anyway. 7 PAX started with a little warmup that consisted of SSH, Alt Toe Touch, Humpys, and […]
But you ain’t got no legs, Lt. Dan
Substitute Q for Kapowksi, I figured I would demonstrate how to write a timely backblast: A few warmups, SSH, ATT, and humpies Mosey to the breezeway at St. Lukes, 5 pullups followed up by 10 lunges around the breezeway. Rinse and repeat 6 times until we got all the way around the breezeway. 15 Decline […]
Beach Bodies don’t just happen… Unless you’re at the Beach!

Route included Oakwood Cemetery Hill, Frye Hospital Hill, and Hickory High School Hill. People talked some, we had a word of the Day from Matthew talking about […]
Q101 School @ Mount
Couple folks popped their cherry this am, including YHC. This was my first lead into Q School. 8 other brave men endured listening to your boy blabber for about 10-15 minutes about cadence, voice inflection, and what not for their first Q School. It was worse than any exercise you can imagine. Short Sale told […]
