BACKBLASTS

9 gloom-warriors joined YHC for some holiday fun around DTC. I threw out an invitation on slack for the gents to wear their favorite ugly xmas sweater, with the best(worst) dressed winning a door prize (which would have been a single 12oz bottle of Cold Mountain). Alas, I was the only jackass to dress up for the occasion. Oh well, not the first time I’ve looked like an idiot, and certainly won’t be the last. [Read More]

Date: 12/5/19 PAX: BOGO, Clementine, Dirty Bomb, Ezekiel, Geek Squad, Gump, Ma Bell, Pigeon, Sky Blue, Trike, WWW I am at the point now that I can make up a workout on the fly, at least the night before. If you want to be creative, the exicon is full of fun stuff to do. However, some exercises you’ll need a decoder ring to understand what to do and how to execute it properly. [Read More]

YHC is not gonna lie when I say that I thoroughly enjoyed fartsacking this morning with the knowledge that I had the Q at this evening’s Rush-Hour. 3 PAX showed up at the greatest evening AO in all of Carpex on a Tuesday! No FNGs, so straight into the pledge we go… Warmup: Mosey around the parking lot where we were able to locate the CPD K9 unit! Circle up in the back corner of the lot for: [Read More]

Preamble A couple of weeks ago Yoga Mat, the king of pre-blasts, put out the call that the FWD Q was open. Hey, why not. Well, except for the drive. But it is always good to visit the eastern regions of my former kingdom. YHC had no idea this day would come on the heels (see what I did there?) of my beloved Wolfpack’s brutal loss to the corrupt Chapel Hillians. [Read More]

0530 and see something you don’t see very often in the POGL (if ever?). Burt and Coney downtown checking out the lights, and the finest Tuesday morning AO in the POGL. After the pledge we moseyed to the Hell’s Bells/Tortoises parking lot for a quick warmup.

When I saw Slappy’s note go out requesting someone pick up Lion’s Den for him I was ecstatic. He had said he was feeling sick but would still Q if no one took it. That sounded like a recipe for some sloppy Slappy merlot and I wanted a second row seat for it. Then Slappy DM-ed me a personal photo of mine I had uploaded to GroupMe back when I thought it was a just private storage site (Thanks a lot, Sub! [Read More]

When: 12/03/19 QIC: Flenderson The PAX: Sub, Large Mouth, Prodigal, Orphan and Michelob YHC signed up for this before this AO went high tempo and before signing up for a half marathon. I decided to keep this Q and use it to push myself in the area. Thank you all for picking me up all morning. Scout run to the parking lot behind the school Warm up: Arm Circles Good Mornings [Read More]

4 pax gathered in the evening gloom for another Tues night beatdown. So after the disclaimer (which YHC always seems to butcher for some reason) and the Pledge of Allegiance we were off and running to the grass next to the parking deck. Warm up: Good Evening SSH Windmills Steve Earle High Knees Turkish Getups Thang 1 After Indian running back to office buildings where we started, we partnered up for the first thang. [Read More]
