Why Are We Here?
Two Saturdays in a row have been Fury boot camps – last week we stayed pretty stationary, so wanted to take the pax on a little roving Q. YHC has been listening to new book by Navy SEAL David Goggins and had flutter kicks and merkins in mind so those were primary exercises of the […]
Fartsack Alert x2
We are in the “lame duck” period of 2018 – with 2019 right around the corner. A lot of pax are off of work, out of town or generally in a more relaxed mood – maybe that’s what caused the turnout to miss the mark a tad. Nonetheless, 5 pax (4 TheWood, 1 DR from […]
Gazebo Work #2
8 PAX gave Terrapin a go on Christmas Eve. Duggar with a double down. I recycled a terrapin workout from a few weeks back. I am still trailing my target on the ab/merkin challenge so it should have been no surprise to see those coming. It went like this: 21-15-9 (7 rounds) Exercise 1 changed […]
Starbucks Surprise
Conditions- 37 and dry for a change Disclaimer and one minute warning given. We had some early walkers and runners leave at 0500, but the rest of us launched at 0515.

12 Days til Christmas
YHC signed up for this Q with no real plan in mind until I realized yesterday that today is 12 days until Christmas. YHC dropped off the whiteboard in front of the school on the way in and whipped into the parking lot right at 1 minute warning time. Conditions: 35° and clearDisclaimer: Given as […]
The Swamp
Conditions were good this morning. 28 degrees and clear skies. I had rather be cold than hot any day of the week. One minute warning and disclaimer given. Warm-up 25 SSH IC Mosey to the coupon cage. This turned out to be an adventure. I knew it would be very wet this morning, but I […]

Mild Morning through The Wood
YHC was glad to see such a large group converge on Uptown Greenwood. After some not so subtle HCs delivered the night before, YHC was hoping for at least a dozen PAX to join him. As time grew closer to 0515 PAX kept showing until 20 were off and running….or walking….or rucking. Conditions: Mild….50 degrees and clear The […]
Sort of Like a Jumping Jack
YHC loves new challenges and quickly gets tired of the same old thing. So, for the first Shipyard/Epicenter convergence, something new for everyone was in order! Warm-Up 10 Windmills 20 Shoulder Taps 20 Arm Circles Forward and 10 Backwards (The shoulders would be work aplenty!) The Thang: Each PAX grabbed a weight plate (actually Pendalay […]
Starbucks Run
Perfect cool morning for a run, or for a walk, as YHC had to do due to knee problems. 2C was supposed to have the Q, but apparently having undesired fluid erupting from both ends precluded his Q duties this AM. We appreciate him not sharing that gift with the rest of the PAX. Disclaimer […]
