2Short2Handle

x 12 Hammerheads came out to shuffle around the ponderosa this fine day (note, despite 6 years of friendship, I never knew how Pondo got his name. Turns out it is from the Presbyterian College version of the Walk of Shame. Wow!). It’s Friday, so that means a flat-ish fast-ish 5K followed by #TBCIF3N. Conditions: …

The Big 5-0

Conditions warmer than usual 37 degrees on the fields of Depot 13 pax showed up for YHC’s “Respect Q”. Ol’ Stagey hadn’t led in a while and had a little “pre-game jitters” before the start. (Notice 3rd party reference there. Cool kids do that…or is it DBs?) Anyway, YHC was just happy no #TummyTroubles came …

Desert like dryness in a soaked Shawshank setting

The morning started off like most mornings…alarm, personal time, get dressed…then something strange happened. An encounter with Argyle and it went something like this.  Argyle: I’ll be less grumpy if we stay dry today. Well, the challenge was met. We stayed dry at Shawshank after a night of rain. Argyle was pleasant throughout the festivities. …

Reverse Manhunt

Good crowd this AM for 28 degrees run. Not sure if it was the idea of the beating Wander or just the need for #acceleration. Jam, Brita, and Lumbergh took an extra red pill and ran XL miles.  The route boasted a hilly start, running up Church St then Pond View but flattened out after …

Last minute sub

Our scheduled QIC couldn’t make it Fri AM so YHC volunteered to take the lead about 30 minutes before bootcamp. YHC has some experience Qing so it didn’t take long to come up with a plan. It was pretty foggy so we stayed on campus for safety reasons.  Thank you to Rock Drop & Dunphy …

Wapsgiving

YHC agreed to take the Q with the promise of something fun. 5 other PAX (well, 4 PAX and one 2.0 that likely didn’t have a choice) decided to join YHC to find out what that meant.  After a disclaimer that would make Dredd proud, we moseyed to the top of the back hill for instructions …

Moving Forward

YHC has had a tough time getting motivated lately.  Lots of excuses have made it that much tougher to climb out of the hole I’ve gotten myself into with my level of fitness.  It seems like week after week I’ve been saying this is the week I turn it around.  Said it again this morning.  …

The Outrageous Route

Perfect running weather this AM as we ran 6.35 miles uphill. Lumbergh said it was outrageous. Strava’s elevation gain calculator tells YHC it wasn’t that bad.  Uneven sidewalk claimed another victim this AM. Impressive roll out of it, Nameless Pax.  Jam and Eggo ran their weekly Hump Day Half…now, that’s outrageous.  Below is the damage: …

Credit for the title goes to my man Nails.  8 men came out this morning and worked to get better.  The workout was originally intended to be Rovet friendly, as he is recovering from surgery, but when he did not show up, we carried on without him.  The theme was football, since the parking lot …
