That was the refrain of the day after YHC called out, “Let’s get started,” and was met with a collective groan. Look, YHC isn’t even in the top 3 of the toughest Northshore Q’s (think Grundy, Hammer, hell, even Pickaxe/Chainsaw could give me a run for my money). Also, just …
Let’s keep it simple. To be honest, the day after the 4th celebrations, I wasn’t expecting anyone to show up at the A1C this early morning. Humid, hot, most people on a nice 4 day weekend. YHC showed up early to put in his 100 burpees for the July Spartan …

7 HIM took the red pill this morning to push themselves in this awful humidity. Einstein and YHC took off early for the prethang. A quick mile before the start of the beatdown. We returned to the flag to see 5 men eager to go, but something was missing. I …
My favorite part of Q’ing a Gipper beatdown? The disgusted look on Moby’s face when he finds out I have the Q and starts muttering obscenities under his breath. It warms my heart and makes me realize that some tiny part of me actually looks forward to being Moby’s age. …
As for the norm, I showed up and there was Jose and Moby doing their normal prethang together. Fast pace walk with good conversation. I jumped in to join in the rant a little. Einstein joined then came Darkwing. Warm-ups: of course, we’re old, we need extra stretches to get …
Big thanks to Moby for having the Tabata timer available this gloom as the YHC came less prepared.. 6 PAX converged on the corner by the gravel pit after warmups of 20IC/10IC Imperial walkers, Hillbillies, SSH, Cherry pickers, Arm circles, Good mornings and Mummy kicks.. 30 secs work, 20 secs …
3 HIMS took the red pill this morning to better ourselves. The Q was open, so I decided to take it and focus on core today. Warm-ups: The ususal. The thang: 4 “Core”ners. We did a series of core exercises at each corner. Penquins, flutter kicks, lbcs, big boy sit …
