Yes, we’re open
7 PAX met at the Stick while many others converged on Lenoir to workout with Dredd and OBT. Since the FiA launch was at 8am, many of the fellas couldn’t make the out and back to Lenoir in time to get their M’s to First Methodist on time. Hated to miss the chance to meet […]

Runnin’, Lunging, Lifting at The Mount
I’m doing this from memory y’all, because I was #weinkeless today. The conditions were PERFECT for a workout today in Mountain View. YHC arrived early, scoped out the AO as he just wanted to refamiliarize himself with it. While doing he say Sweet Heat running and he spotted a big tire and thought of using […]
An AO Ode to the NFL Draft – #KeepPounding
As a washed up former college football player, today is always an exciting day for me. Though I knew I would never play in the NFL, the NFL Draft Day is always something I strive to watch, not just because I hope the Panthers draft wisely, but because I know just how much emotion the […]
I like big hills and I can’t lie
Excerpt from Cousin Eddie’s diary: Dear Diary, Saturday: Post-SMR, I would have seriously used a walker if someone had offered me one…or if Abraham would just share his. 5 days to recover for Hurler Q.

Fourth (and final?) Stop on the Q101 Tour – Lenoir!
Once YHC found the place things went well. But finding this A.O. took awhile. To begin with, YHC lives about 35 minutes from Lenoir. That’s okay, just hit the road early enough to make sure you’re on time. So by 4:45 YHC was in the “Q101 mobile” headed toward Hibriten Mountain and surrounding environs. The […]

The Station had a splash down
Man The Station in on fire and we don’t need no water let that sucker keep burning and getting bigger, faster, and stronger. Another great gloomy morning for a sweat fest. Temps in high 40’s low 50’s little bit on rain in the air and the ground soaking wet. At first Trigger and YHC thought […]
