Doracides with coupons – who the heck came up with this?
The Thang: 8 PAX showed up on a mild & wet morning for a Doracide routine with blocks. Good turnout, but they would have probably stayed home if they knew what was coming. Warm-ups – x15 reps Side straddle hops Little arm circles Alternating Toe Touches Humpies Imperial Storm Troopers Moseyed to block pile where […]
Burpees and Bear Crawls at Whipping Stick
I don’t know if I had cabin fever from the snow storm or what, but I was ready to workout with my fellow Hickory PAX this morning. Considering how cold it has been this week, this morning’s 28 degrees was quite toasty. Here’s how it went down. Warm up (in cadence): SSH x 15 ATT […]
The Calm before the Snow Storm
It was a cold, 21 degrees this past Tuesday morning and Hickory didn’t know what was headed its way Wednesday. The same could be said for the PAX at The Mount Tuesday morning. It had been a few weeks since I last Q’ed so I wanted to make sure that the guys had a great […]
Shark-Nado Comes to The Den
I gotta tell ya, the bar was set this week for F3 Lenoir. Audit and Double Bogey absolutely killed us. It’s been along time since I’ve left a F3 workout sore. I’ve been sore several days this week. I knew that I had to bring it if I was going to keep this thing […]
And Then There Were Two
YHC offered to substiQ last minute for Wile-E whom evidently experienced an Acme malfunction while chasing the Road Runner and couldn’t make it. No problem, I understand. In fact, I traded my upcoming Stargate Q for an ailment of my own. An EH FB post about Hemi was sent out and read by 27. Surely […]
Slingblade Blizzard 011718- Ok, Really Just a Peaceful Snow Run
YHC has not run much lately, so getting back ‘up to speed’ at Slingblade has been tough. But YHC had Q today, so not posting was out of the question. I had heard a rumor that 1 other should be there also, and with school cancelling, I really expected to see both of the ‘Running […]
Premature Joggulation @ Stargate
OK, I gotta give credit to Udder Butter for the name of this backblast. YHC drove up to Lenoir from Hickory in the BLIZZARD and met up with Double Bogey. We made the usual small talk and reckoned that nobody else would show up so we headed out. I didn’t even look at my watch […]
On thin ICE
3 Pax posted for a little ice skating downtown. Not sure if it was the cold (19*) or the black ice about that kept so many away. Warm-up 20 SSH 20 NANCY KERRIGANS (icy! LAC balanced on one leg) 20 Windmills 20 Humpies 20 Calf Raises 20 Mountain Climbers mosey (skate) to Stage on the […]
No Pre-run for Snips…
I rolled up to the State Champion Hibriten High School campus around 6:15 for a pre-run. I noticed that a few of my F3 brothers had already made it there. Babyface, Spokes,…, wait… No SNIPS?!?!? I thought Snips was always down for a pre-run. After 3.2 miles without Snips we got to work for an […]
The Fantastic Four @ SoCal
Cropduster arrived early and loaded 10 blocks in his truck and drove them to the Granite Drug parking lot. He studied his weinke in the dark privacy of his truck, put on his gloves and headed out for the short run to the AO. There waiting for him were Panda, 2-Stroke and the thought of […]
