Starbucks Backblast for 8/29/18
22 PAX converged at Starbucks this morning for our weekly Run/Ruck. It was nice to see Eleanor (Hulk’s dog) joining us and putting in good work as well. Maybe Pusher can bring his dog, Georgia, and they can become buddies. That would be nice. As usual, we all went various distances and various speeds, but […]
The Road to Faster Running, Part 1
This morning we had a good Sunday group head out from Starbucks. We had 10 in all. After we were done, we completed the usual COT activities and had some nice fellowship. But I think I’m going to talk about something a little different today. At the beginning of August, I started a new training […]
The Epic Showdown of Summer 2018
36 PAX gathered on Wednesday for one reason and one reason only….to witness the epic showdown between 2C and Pusher. It was billed as a winner-take-all grudge match, the likes of which F3 Greenwood has never seen. No one in attendance truly cared about bettering themselves. They just wanted to say, 30 years from now, […]
Sunday morning in the Gloom
7 pax made it out for a good Sunday morning run. YHC was using today as a test for the injured ankle, which seems to be getting better, and ran much shorter than the rest of the pax. Some pax ran 3 miles, one pax ran 5 miles, and one pax ran a half marathon. […]
Is there a lecture on how to eat donuts and lose weight?
29 pax and 1 pup got out in the gloom for another Wednesday morning run, ruck, or walk. As is the routine, some left early and went longer while others started and finished on time. Craig Pfeifer was our guest in the COT to discuss opportunities he has through the PEES department at Lander. Topics […]
Sunday Stroll Peppered With IronPax
Just like most of our Sunday runs, various PAX set out on various runs. However, on this morning as I rolled into the parking lot I noticed several PAX (Uncle Jessie, Sour, Encino Man, Dugger, and Beano) at the corner of the mall. When I noticed coupons on the ground in front of them, I […]
Prescription for the Grind Flu
Conditions- 70 degrees and slightly humid 5:14 – disclaimer and 1 minute warning given 5:15 a small group of us took off and were all back safe by COT at 6. COT Countorama Nameorama Announcements- Saturday workout is at Epicenter. The Q was questionable, but I looked and Koby has it locked down. Hulk has […]
When you’ve got a job to do, you’ve got to do it well…
7 guys posted at Starbucks to log a few miles. Sunday RunDay has an open ended start, so you can get going as early as you want to. Pretty sure most of us got there or got started around the 6:15 timeframe. All returned before the 7:30 end time. We got a few minutes headstart […]
Quiet Crowd for a Wednesday
For mid-July, it was a very nice, crisp morning in the Wood. 24 PAX got out of bed to get a little better. I’m always surprised the number isn’t higher. Not only for Wednesdays, but for every day. It’s so dang easy to get to a 5:15 work out. In fact, it’s simple. All you […]
Proof That a Puppy Didn’t Kill Tsunami
On this overcast morning and Greenwood, 7 pax and one puppy emerged into The Gloom for running and fellowship. YHC took the Q yesterday after Piddler asked someone to step up and fill the vacancy. I was glad I did. Otherwise, I would still be in the fartsack. During our discussion, we talked about the […]
