YHC wanted to share with you about a fantastic morning with the Pax at the Mandeville Trailhead. The session was invigorating, starting with a 15-minute yoga session with a vinyasa flow. The energy remained high as they moved on to step-ups supersetted with incline push-ups and step-ups supersetted with shoulder …
That was the first song up on the playlist this Tuesday morning and it really hit the nail on the head. “Good lord I feel like I’m dying,” hasn’t rang more true than it did on this mild morning at Granny’s (82* with 90% humidity), with the cinderblocks awaiting us …
With YHC out of town for the Scramble and his gym buddy Tanked flying out to Wisconsin Friday for his qualifier, I decided to scoop up Tuesday and Friday (A1c) on the Q sheet. Not to worry if anyone is looking for an opportunity to lead a beatdown, as Wednesday, …
I h8 how hot it’s been. We started at 82 and worked up to 84 degrees before we were done at Granny’s. Gr8 group of 4 (a factor of 8) to comminic8 how much we love 8s on 8-8. Luckily, no one had to regurgit8 or inebri8 (or any other …
No, no – not the Prince song made famous by Julia Roberts in that Pretty Woman bathtub scene. Keep it simple, stupid. In this case, that refers to both the beatdown and this backblast. Jose had promised to boycott my Tuesday Q, as he was sure there’d be no backblast …
76 degrees to start this morning, and since YHC has been dealing with yet more allergies, I selfishly and secretly thought that flying solo might not be so bad. Easy ruck there and back. But no, fate had other plans, and I’m glad she did. Jose pulled up, fresh off …
You might know it as The Kart and Karry. Maybe Circle-K. Up north: Wawa. A fan of Clerks? the Quick Stop. My Cousin Vinny more to your liking? The Sack O’ Suds. Whatever you call your favorite neighborhood convenience store / bodega, YHC can almost guarantee it brings up fond …
I arrived to Grandma’s a little early to get in a little run before the beatdown. The weather came through the night before which brought the temperature down a bit. The humidity was there, but a little more bearable. I passed Steve on my run, so I knew I wasn’t …
The Splashpad and Granny’s share a common space. It’s unclear where one begins and the other ends. It’s more of an F3 commune for midweek beatdown madness. Neither can claim to be unique, but both can claim individuality. Even though you technically can make the Tunnel from the Pad, YHC …
About 70 degrees and “not too bad” as Steve concurred this morning. 6 pack this morning for what I thought might be an ambitious beatdown. Great conversation throughout revolving around vacations, movies, beaches, gravel in our elbows…and twins! (Remember when beer commercials used to be fun?) Warmup – all 10x …
