The Q jogged up from his epic 6-minute RIRO to find the pax ready and assembled. Brief warm-o-rama, and we head to the routine: Station 1: 10 LBCS, 10 Penguins, 5 crunchy frogs Circle by trailhead Station 2: 10 Shoulder Taps, 10...
Read moreYHC has spent the last two Saturdays in the high country, that lovely mountain town we know as Boone. Why? Squid (if your a FIA type person), AKA Mrs. Wobegon, AKA Molly, has signed a contract to be the Associate Dean for Collections at Belk...
Read moreWith two back-to-back Qs, YHC kept it simple this week. The Q (sidenote: I hit every possible light coming in today, sheesh) rolled up at 0624 to find Rollback doing burpees alone in the parking lot while Lambchop sat in his car. I pulled the...
Read moreWhen I agreed to this Q I completely forgot it was a holiday for the humble nonprofit I work for. I’ve been working full time pretty much sinch 1996 and I think I’ve only had President’s Day as a holiday for the last three. So, yeah. All good!...

Read moreOk, look. I was not a Bells and Whistles. I have documentation. Check my texts; there was no chatting with Spicoli the day before. I independently came to the card-themed workout looking for something to keep us under the overhang, should we need...
Read moreThe rain held off, and the cars rolled in. Looks like Schltiz had his own personal EC run, good on ‘em. It went like this: Warm-O-Rama SSH, Whirly, Overhead claps, Seal claps, Arm Swirly Things, Calf Stretch, Abe. Everyone loves Abe and the Calf...
