Buckets of Rain
Conditions: 48 Degrees and Rainy (one lightning strike, falling tree/limbs) When I emerged from the fartsack for the trek to Hustle, I wished that I hadn’t signed up to Q. The rain was pouring down, but that wasn’t the reason. The day before, I ushered in the New Year with an 11-mile run and I wasn’t […]
Blame it on the rain
YHC arrived at the Uptown Fountain around 5:10 am after passing Meatloaf (going XL) who was about a mile into his OnB run. Meatloaf’s truck was the only vehicle in the lot. As 5:15 approached, it was obvious that there would only be two vehicles in the lot when it was time to go. 5:15 […]
Deck of Death Multiplier
My apologizes for the severe lateness of this BB. No excuse and this is one thing I’m going to work on getting better at this year. YHC picked up this Q from Roach as he has fallen ill and unable to post the last couple of months. If you have time reach out to him […]
Tardy New Year’s Eve BB
First, let me say #Cobains for the tardy BB. It is outside of the standard and the norm for this #Starfish organization. But I would be remiss to just let it go by the wayside. 15 men put in some serious work Saturday and they deserve to see it posted. Aye! YHC and Pusher initially […]

Three Bolts of Lightning
When YHC pulled up to the Epicenter this morning , I was shocked to see a couple of cars there before me. Normally with this kind of weather most PAX get there right at time so seeing these cars gave me hope to have a good number. Unfortunately, I was wrong and we only had 3 […]
The Best of Shipyard 2016-(canceled due to lightning)
The headlines say this is the worst of times, I do believe it is true……Styxx circa 1981. Well, some things also bring out the best of times, like F3 in Greenwood. Just like Time, People , Sports Illustrated, Saturday night live, Shipyard also should replay and remember the best that 2016 had to offer. Being […]
