Q101 School @ Mount
Couple folks popped their cherry this am, including YHC. This was my first lead into Q School. 8 other brave men endured listening to your boy blabber for about 10-15 minutes about cadence, voice inflection, and what not for their first Q School. It was worse than any exercise you can imagine. Short Sale told […]

Battle of the BULGE at Star
We had 2 for the pre-run down the hill to the lake then up that loooong hill known as Shiloh Church Rd (i think). We were looking for Lake Shore Drive and never found it, but carefully avoided Joe Teague Drive. Plank “pants” while running up Shiloh – but guess what – he conquered it! […]

Careful Ed will play with your wood
Thang: Couple of warmups. SSH x15 Windmills x15 ATT x15 Very slow mosey to the infamous Star Pile. These guys have looted all kinds of good stuff: one massive tire, telephone poles, blocks, Tooth Fairy sized bricks, and some hybrid that’s not quite a block and not quite a brick. Time for some spoke. Start […]
A Star-Studded Reunion
It was a reunion of the usual Star crew this AM as YHC was back in action at his home AO. 5 studs posted under Bethlehem’s Star and got to work. Full Disclosure: This content was either recycled from YHC’s Saturday Q at the Whipping Stick or shamelessly stolen from Snip’s Q at SoCal in […]
The Parade of Horribles
YHC is moving down south to the flat land of good bird hunting, cotton fields, and bar-b-que hash. But before departing he wanted to make one more lap around the F3 Hickory region. So borrowing freely from @DreddCNC and his vocabulary, YHC fashioned a Hickory-style Parade of Horribles. 7 workouts in 7 days. It sounded […]
Pavers – Not just for paving anymore
5 faithful departed from their fart sacks this morning in order to meet in the 70 degree and humid gloom to explore the space with pavers. And it went like this… The Thang: Warm up .5 mile run to the Alexander County library and back with stops for exercises (IC) SSH X 20 ATT X […]
Traveling BLIMPS and TMDR
5 pax left the Star parking lot behind to travel down the hill to the lake, but YHC wanted to make sure Binary’s heart would not feel downtrodden by lack of parking lottage exercising. BLIMPS get old running back and forth to the same place, so the PAX did some traveling BLIMPS. Warm-up 20 SSH […]
Damn the Odd Numbers
There were 2 plans: Plan A – do intervals w/ logs Plan B – do intervals w/ blocks The only flaw with Plan A is that we needed even numbers of Pax to make it work so when Cable Guy pulled in at 5:29:58, I knew that Plan A was not an option…or was it? […]
