5:20am – 41 degrees. All but 5 of the cinder blocks are missing under the ramp. Off to a great start. Dispatch PAX to the Wisner Bridge cache and start setting up for VQ. Forget speaker. Putting the “V” in this “VQ” right off the bat. Let’s start while 2 …
A cool Morning at Okwata, 57 degrees, slight wind. Perfect conditions! Q sheet was open at 8 pm, so YHC jumped on it. 7 Pax in attendance with YHC, Rudy, Kuch, Ya Mom an Dem, Glitterballz, Cracklin, and Saban. Flag planted, disclaimer given, then mosey to the fountain, carioca around …

Today was YHC’s actual Double Nickel day. Last Saturday’s run was just a prelude to the main event – OKWATA! 7 PAX joined YHC out in the morning mugginess. As promised to Cracklin’, YHC agreed to avoid the grassy fields – which look as if they haven’t been mowed in …
It was simple: 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats, and 2 miles. We had split off into different groups of different levels, but in the end it was 14 of my F3 brothers completing the Murph this morning. COT, Hammer prayed us out with special intentions for TruCoats friend and …
Legs were heavy for those of us that opted to join Saban a day earlier on his sadistic 8.5+ mile jaunt through the city. Soreness be damned, though, because RCR is upon us. So let’s get some more miles in… Warm-up We moseyed to the track for a brief warm-up …
Conditions – Chilly, but not as bad as Monday The Thang 10 PAX started with 10 burpees, then began the run. 20 minutes out, 20 minutes back, stopping for 10 burpees every 5 minutes. For the remainder, grabbed 20 LBTs in cadence, and 10 more burpees for a full 100. …
Nine PAX decided to test out the adage that one can’t get cold while lifting cinder blocks. While I believe this still to be true, this adage clearly does not account for howling winds along with frigid temperatures. Despite lots and lots of coupon lifting, it was cold. Very, very …
YHC arrived at 5:15am to pray and Q for his first beatdown at the Foundry. While he prayed alone with no one else present at 5:15, he is confident the Birdcage will show up in numbers to pray next Wednesday at 5:15. 5:30 and time to start, so YHC presents …
