Too Many Options
Typically when you get a text at 4:45 in the morning your first reaction is “crap, what is wrong…”, but today it was my good buddy Root volunteering to ride along to @F3MtView. YHC was glad to have the company, but was concerned Root was so anxious for a Kapowski Q. Having taken my 6 […]
BLIMPS and Big BUT’s

T’Ville Tough at Copperhead
First of All the T Ville Pax is getting stronger and stronger. 4 PAX posted for a prerun this AM then got ready to endure a heavy does of pain dreamed up by YHC. 8 circled up around the shovel flag in 24 degree conditions. It started quick and this is what happened…. SSH IC […]

Learning the Streets of GF
I never know how to write a Backblast for a run only event. There is typically little to no color to write about unless someone gets lost or falls. I chose a couple of streets that we had either not run on before or at least not often. I think the crowd appreciated the variety. Oh […]
Rein in the pain
Evil Jacobs
YHC has always had an eye for hard workouts. So when Abraham took us to the Hardware Hill on Tuesday at the star, YHC couldn’t help but notice that they had mowed the even bigger, more terrible Hill beside of it. This is how it went down. THE THANG Warm up with 20 SSH and […]
Cindy in the House
Looks like this VQ needs to learn to count. After several months of being a PAX, this old geezer was only used to counting on the 4th count. After finally getting the swing after warm-ups, the workout advanced. Here’s how it went: Warm-ups Side Straddle Hops – 15x, Humpies – 15x, Little Arm Circles – […]
Microwave It and Serve It Up
I preach once a year at the Holden Beach Chapel. Someone once asked me if I write a special sermon for those vacationers. Are you kidding? No. I pick my favorite sermon from the past year, re-heat it, and serve it up. Hey, I’m on vacation too. C’mon, man, give a preacher a break. So, […]
