Leaning in to infinity ♾

Perhaps YHC should not play on the phone late at night. Especially as I’m starting my vacation early with an extra beer (or two) before heading to bed. Sometimes a call goes out for a Substi-Q, and bad decisions are made—at least bad decisions at 39 equal an early morning workout and not nicknaming myself […]

Worst at the Mount

There are a few exercises YHC doesn’t really like, so naturally YHC queued them up for today’s beatdown. First, a quick warm-up in cadence with 10 side-straddle hops 12 humpies 10 small arm circles 10 reverse arm circles 20 butt kickers 20 high knees Then a mosey to the Clock, for one of my least […]

Mount @ OG

Monday night, Publix threw it out there that he needed to switch Q’s because  of vacation. I had a conflict for next Wednesday when I was scheduled to Q, so more than a coincidence it seemed ordained that I would Q at OG this morning. The only problem I had was that I have only […]

Organ Grinder Tuesdays

2 years ago, the AO known as Organ Grinder was born.  Like all other newborns, it was ugly, needed a lot of attention, and required cleaning every time you visited it.  In fact, I’m pretty sure it remains as the only AO to have it’s blocks stolen from it.  Wait, nevermind.  Sorry Mt. View, I […]

Across Lower Creek Drive?

Weather 68°F, 84% Humidity, Dew Point 63°F, Pressure 29.1″ With the Infinity AO in a majority of the PAX backyard and I was an outsider it was great to join the neighborhood gang.  Aye!  We did some warm up exercises in various cadences that consisted of SSH’s, Windmills, Imperial Storm Troopers, High Knees. We left […]

Music is the universal language (of pain)

Some weeks ago, YHC was the Q on my birthday. It has bugged me since then that I held a block party with the guys, but I didn’t include any music. What kind of party doesn’t have music? (Or beer, for that matter, but that’s for another time.) When swinger sent the call for a […]

Windshield Time is a Blessing

Weather – 63°F, 94% Humidity, Low Clouds, Pressure 30.03” Having Q’d last week for Stargate I had not looked at the Google Calendar to see the schedule and didn’t realize I was on Q for Prison Break until around 7:45PM on Monday night when I got a DM from Swinger noting I was on Q […]

Is that Sharon I See?

On Q for Stargate is always a pleasure.  So, you first have to pull up Google Earth and zoom out of the center of Lenoir and visualize where you can take the PAX for a good 5 mile route.  As I did this I saw how I could incorporate Sharon Ave. hill along with the […]
