We had 21 out on a cold morning (25 deg F) including a few runners. This post marked the flag transfer from me to Captain Jack for The Deep. It was also very near the 4 year anniversary of my first post which was at The Deep and was Q’d by Longshanks (1/28/2017). So I decided to look up the back blast and do a tribute to that Q. Warmup Mosey over to the other…
5‘Twas a good day in the gloom. We had 10 men show ready to do work. After the disclaimer I simply asked everyone before we leave the circle to commit to pushing yourself this morning. I had everyone look to their left…that person would be punished if you didn’t push and give it all you had.. This happened twice…Ill get there soon. Here’s what we did… To start.. 2 laps around the track Circle of…
6Started with a quick disclaimer, no FNGs and off we went. Took off and started to make the infamous loop around the building. Stopped around back and began our string of pearls. We worked our way back to the front, stopped again and kept adding. Made our way to the boat parking lot area and made several loops stopping every so often to keep working to 25 then made our way back down. String…
0We had 4 at the Brig January 27th including Fudd, Shades, Soft Shell, and myself (Captain Jack). The evening started nice and dry. It lasted about 2 minutes. We moseyed over to the circle for some warm up activities. Just a few exercises in the rain started. I planned to do the main event at the park entrance but shifted plans to the pavilions. I borrowed the main event from a Silent Bob Q over…

1Showed up a little earlier, noticed a couple guys who were notably absent (cough, Sand Dollar, cough, where is Trench on a day like today?!!), got a feel for pax on IR or not, and with really only Quasi having any form of injury (calf), I read the standard disclaimer and knew Quasi well enough that he’d push through whatever I put out there. Warm-up – mosey around the loop near CoT, then hit SSH,…
3Weather: Gloomy and Rainy 5th Principle-Rain or Shine, Outdoors YHC had suffered sleep deprivation on the eve of this Q. Thunderstorm kept the house up. One of the rolling thunder sustained the house for minutes. I thought I was having to put the 2.0’s in the closet, like, is this another earthquake. Sorry no rapture. Keep it movin’. Eyes open 5 till Start. Lucky I laid out my go bag, lucky I loaded Goliath the…
3Started with a nice disclaimer and introduction of events today. 24 hours in advance Ice Bear and I worked out an agreement to Co-Q the morning. So just 5 minutes before the workout we settled on an order and took off. Mosey to other side of school. Warm O Rama: SSH, Windmills, Seal Jacks, Cherry Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walkers. We then moseyed over to Broomsedge Drive in Paddler’s Cove… aka the “climbing out of…
3YHC at The Deep, Arrived a bit early to set my cones and coupons. It was much colder this morning than considered the night before and much darker, set the last cones on the asphalt vs. the field to give the only break for that morning. Don’t mind wet shoes ( when crossing creeks) just thought I’d resist the frozen tundra a bit this morning….until the hill work. Disclaimer was given, usual, who I am,…
0GrowRuck is right around the corner and at this point you can start counting the days. For some, training has consisted of a preruck and an hour ruck workout. That’s 1/6th the time of the actual event. I think it time to up our game and tackle a new challenge that will prepare us for the GrowRuck in April. On Feb 13th at 8 am come to Lynwood’s Access at Crowder’s Mountain for a 11-12…
