So I worked out with the boys in Summerville at “The Ditch” last summer and had a blast. Redo was the AOQ and put on quite a show, so why not let the Tomahawk boys have fun with it? I must admit I was a little worried this Q would not meet the high standards …
Q’s were in abundance at Swampfox this morning as two men showed up with every intention of leading the pax.

It was good to be back at YHC’s home AO for another Q. Ashamed to say, it has been several months since the last Q. To make up for it, YHC brought a beat-down, but the Graveyard PAX ran with it… there was light mumble-chatter regarding bear-hauls. And sprints. But mostly, they ran with it. …

Stride and other running AO’s around the Region are making a concerted effort to develop safer routes that we can become more familiar with. Familiar routes make safer routes. The one YHC chose today limited intersection crossings to 4 and stayed away from heavy, fast moving traffic. The route also incorporated as much sidewalk as …
Hump day has arrived, and, for Stumblers, Wednesdays mean a longer-ish run. My goal was pretty simple — 1) make the route fun, 2) make it so it sorta swings back toward the AO to pick-up @F3Armory guys, and 3) make it with enough turns that Heist might get lost. All goals were met and …

As our run groups are narrowing down our routes to only include the safest possible ones, YHC was excited to share this oldie but goldie. While no route is 100% safe, this one boasts plenty of sidewalks, quiet roads, Shawshank loops to go off road, and only 2 stop sign crossings. Then we ran into …
This morning we did a repeat of Quickbooks’ Route from last Monday, with less recovery time. I chose to do this after hearing feedback from one of the PAX following last week’s workout, telling him that this was good training for the P200 (and because I was feeling lazy last night!) We did a one …

After two strong Qs this week, Pocahontas on Tues and DirtyBird on Thurs, YHC attempted to round out the week. Canseco planted the idea of BOMBS in the gloom on Tues but the classic BOMBS workout in the lexicon didn’t look too appealing this week. So here is what we did; Mosey toward gate leading …
Rule of thumb for Qing a regular F3 bootcamp is: Make it challenging but not so challenging a man of a reasonable fitness level can’t do it. Rule of thumb for Qing Cryptonite: There are no rules (save F3’s 5 core principles). It better be challenging for even the most fit among us. When Wingback, …

YHC provided the planned route on the DM board the day before so at the 1 minute warning, YHC gave a brief overview to make sure all the PAX were comfortable. The route was named Le Tour de Escargot due to the Strava art of the route resembling somewhat of a snail. HT decided it …

Oh The Hollow… there’s no better place to get a wonderful mix of personalities, real fellowship, and mumble chatter that ranges from mundane (reading a newspaper before workout) to the insane (social media posts about feminine products). YHC is always glad to return to his secondary “home” AO. A couple of years ago, YHC’s work …
It was a perfect morning for a 10k and 5 PAX took the DRP for a little betterment. Everything was great until we made it to the base of what appeared to be the Himalayan Mountains on Harmon Street. YHC always forgets what an awful climb this is, but we made it up and everyone …

9 men of Boneyard posted this morning after depriving themselves of sleep last night.

Reflection: YHC is not really sure what happened during this Q. When YHC took the available date to Q, he figured we would just chill, have a good time, joke around etc. Especially considering that our beloved handball has been tabled due to the recent Seattle type weather in our area. THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED …
Merry New Year, er’rbody! Hope your 2019 is off to a great start. It’s been a while since we fired up the good ol’ Fuel Challenge, so after hearing several pax ask about bringing it back over the holidays (and YHC in need of losing some lbs.), we’re going to jump start the New Year …

Saturday numbers at Jumanji are normally low and today was no exception. A few members have been under the weather as of lately with various injuries and ailments and were in hibernation.

Just when I thought I had conducted my final mid-week Q in Lexington, an invite from Quisenberry to hold the reins for the Kamikaze one last time and “modify it as I see fit” proved to good to pass up. Rather than subject the PAX to the BURPEE version from last time, I decided to …
These wet Friday mornings are starting to get old, but it will take a lot more than that to hold down the committed PAX of F3 Stride. Elvis made an appearance, YHC nearly got lost on his own route, and YHC was also dreaming about food for the last mile… cutting carbs sucks. Conditions: 57 …
YHC should start at the end. YHC & 2.1 decided a nice hot coffee after this morning’s daring outdoor adventure would be in order. YHC drove to the local Celestialbucks. While inside, mind you around 615AM, the barista asked how YHC’s day was going. “Fine, a little soggy, but a fun start so far!” “Oh …
So many emotions… So many memories… So many hours invested.. So much to be thankful for.. This Q would be YHCs last as the AOQ. When you work so hard pouring so much into something you would think it would be hard to just give it up. This is not the case for YHC…. for …
Hard to believe it’s been almost a year since taking on the role of AOQ at The Hollow. It’s been a blast, but most of all I’m grateful for the opportunity to lead this group of men. There’s no question in my mind I’ve received more from them than I’ve given and I’m thankful for …
