The skies decided to open up in the middle of the night before the workout, which somehow always seems to always happen before YHC is scheduled to Q. The flooded conditions at the AO required some audibles and detours to get through the workout, but we made it through (somewhat) …
With our scheduled Q Tinkles still on the mend, YHC decided to repeat most of Saturday’s workout. A brief disclaimer then we moseyed to the lights for the first COP: SSH x20, MC X20, IW x15, PP x20, Hillbillies x20, Parker Peter x20 & Seal Jacks x20 After the warm-up we …

In the spirit of 40 something year olds winning and finishing second in the Open, I had the privilege to lead a crowd of 30 and 40 somethings (no “Hate” and no “Respect” this morning.) Also they have blocked off part of the running track at Audubon so we improvised. …
OK Fellas – We showed up to the Flag for another humid beatdown in the Gloom. We ran a full 2.02 miles. 12 PAX for a dozen ready to get stronger. I pointed out to Landing Strip that I thought of him last night. The M and I were watching …
“We have a strong instinct to belong to small groups defined by clear purpose and understanding–tribes. This tribal connection has been largely lost in modern society, but regaining it may be the key to our psychological survival.” – Sebastian Junger Four PAX including YHC showed up for The Skinny 4th …
Eleven men gathered in the still, humid and of course hot gloom of ole Audubon. At precisely 5:31, allowing for Yankee’s obligatory tardiness, we moseyed to the bandstand for the start of a non-traditional Monday workout: First COP: SSH x25, Mountain Climbers x20, Elbow Mountain Climbers x15 (a bit tougher …
Leading my VeryfirstQ enabled me to get out to Audubon earlier than ever before – approximately 05:20. My Weather Channel app indicates that the humidity was higher than the temperature – 87% vs. 81°, which is hard to believe, because it sure felt hot. We warmed up in place: 40 …
Twelve men arrived in the gloom completely unprepared for the hazards that would await them at the Skinny. After listening to Woop proudly explain the origin of his F3 name, the PAX took off counterclockwise down the jogging path. Stopping right in the middle of some stickers sharp as razor blades, …
Nice post Jazz Fest soggy morning full of receding gloom. Moderate amount of fartsacking today (Captain Morgan and others.) Left us with a PAX of 9. Good quorum for getting it done. Good transitions kept the HR up and let us get 6 COP of 4 exercises each done. Each …
