If You Can’t Come To RAM Bring RAM to Hudson

It was a damp, humid morning in wonderful Hudson this past Friday when Double Bogey and I came rolling into Hemi. A little background must be given for us to understand the significance of this workout: (1) DB and I are preparing for a 200 mile relay run with some of the fellas and needed […]

Q School, After a Beat Down

Hemi-The Most Fun You Are Missing

Hemi= “In Between”  because it is placed in Hudson so it is between Lenoir and Granite Falls. It is a lightly attended AO but one that can be fun, none the less.  We gave it a go Friday and this is how it went. Warmups (all x 10 IC) Alt toe touch IST Merkins Humpys […]
