What do rats have to do with bears
QIC realized on Friday that he had Q on Saturday (just happened to be a week earlier than he remembered) but then how many QIC plan their workout more than a day in advance? (kudos to the ones who do)So I laid out the pre-blast and only one assumed HC came from a post by […]
End of an era…..
On June 1, 2017, yours truly Q’d for the first time on a gloomy morning in Lenoir. Hundreds of workouts, 1000s of Merkins and LBCs, a couple of injuries and 2+ years later, I was tasked with leading the last workout as the Master Q of the Den. It’s really amazing how far this group of men […]

The Most Terrifying Guest Q EVER
Master Q had a quick schedule change for Halloween Q at PrisonBreak from Hanger’s conflicting schedule. So he dug deep and thought what could be the most terrifying PrisonBreak ever… and thus the surprise guest Q was born! Master Q was first on the scene, I didn’t want the guest Q to beat me there. […]
I’m not crying, that’s just sweat in my eyes….
YHC pulled up to Prison Break with a few minutes to spare this AM to find Bizmark and Swinger laying on the ground, in the dark, stretching out. I hopped out and began my laps around the parking lot to try to wake up my knees (getting old is the worst!). Real soon we had […]
A Coolish Start at Infinity
YHC had read the mumblechatter on Slack yesterday about sick Q’s, who’s going to be Q, and nothing about who was posting. In fact, YHC wasn’t sure if I would post. YHC does, in fact, get out of the ol’ fartsack and made the long .5 mile trek to Infinity. Rolled in to a parking […]
