A Balanced Beatdown
The below is posted on behalf of Special K, these are his words not mine. Great BB Special K! The QIC enjoyed the cool a.m. temps and the effort put forth at the epicenter today. QIC knew the workout would be challenging for himself and hoped the same for the PAX. At one point, […]
“Gun Shots rang out like a bell”
“Gun shots rang out like a bell” is a line from one of my favorite songs growing up, Ice Ice Baby. And when we hear gun shots in The Wood we run for the hills, because they are alive. It was an eventful morning in The Wood, as usual unfortunately. Pothole was first on the scene and heard what […]
Fabio’s Thursday Morning #SwampFest
9 Pax gave the #fartsack a stiff kick to the mid-section for a rainy #AMRAP #SwampFest at the #EpicCenter. Upon arrival Fabio discovered that the #EpicCenter had been robbed – the bandits got away with all of our #Coupons and all of our orange #ManCones. So Fabio “flipped the script” on the Q. This day […]

“One of these days they know they better get goin”
21 PAX rolled out of bed to tackle what Uncle Jesse was cooking. Juggernaut pointed out last week that I had yet to give the PAX a “dose” of the Grateful Dead, so I felt it important to honor that request. With the abundance of fartsacking lately, I thought the lyric from the classic “Truckin” was fitting: “Most […]
What a Difference 6 Months Makes
YHC had the privilege of CO-Qing with Special K today for his VQ! This guy brings it to the PAX’s early and often. The double Q did not disappoint the PAX or allow them to breath. YHC has been busy of late but had to travel for work on Thursday so had time to reflect […]
Bo Diddley – More than just an evil genius
Bo Diddley welcomed eight faithful PAX into the sub-freezing gloom for the #DRP and the first of what will hopefully be many evil genius Qs. A challenging workout that included everyone mixed with the best cadence cooked up south of Metro! Conditions 29° and, well, dang cold… Disclaimer CoP SSH x 25 IC Windmill x […]
At least it wasn’t raining!
After Q101 on 11-10-15, YHC was feeling less confident but ready to try. Hard work was expected, pain and #mubblechatter was was implied. Hey, but at least it wasn’t raining! Conditions: Clear for the first time in a while, but all the prior rain made it a mushy mess around the flag. YHC caved and […]
Three Wise Men, a #Snotwoggler and a special #EpsteinsMother
The usual Wednesday Starbucks 5K got turned on its head for a special Veterans Day workout to honor all the men and women who serve or have served. THANK YOU to the vets who attended: Duggar, Bo Diddley and Pacer. It is an honor to do life with you men! Disclaimer The Thang Mosey around […]
Soggy Bottom Boys go to Q101
Several weeks ago, YHC noticed that a new phenomenon known as “Q101” was making its way around the Midlands. It was billed as a shortened, FirstF-focused version of Q School. YHC thought this would be a great thing for the PAX in Greenwood, especially after following the impact via Twitter it was having around Columbia. […]
