Date: 06/08/19 Weather: 88-degrees and humid. This was definitely a Gold Bond type of morning. QIC: Recall A strong 21 posted for this Saturday’s beat down. YHC kicked off the workout with a quick recap of the 5-core principles. The PAX completed a mosey around the pond and to the basketball court. The mosey included …
Weather: Hot with light rain QIC: Scrum This was my first trip to the new downtown St. Pete AO. Beautiful location – right on the Bay. Great place to watch the sunrise. We had 7 pax total, with one FNG. Several of the pax made the trip down from Clearwater. This AO should hopefully grow …
Here’s a VQ backblast for YHC. Special props to Bing (see what I did there?) for co-qing today with me which included an enroute text that the normal AO was not open to friendly guys like us. A command decision took us to the UTC mall parking lot nearby with nothing lost other than the …
Weather: temp was 72F and dew point 70F. Yes, FL humid, so let’s have fun and run so we can get to the beatdown! Pre-run: YHC launched at 0344 for a celebratory pre-run in honor of Global Running Day. Bing and Ripken joined YHC at 0420, but just long enough for YHC to yield to nature calling …
Thursday morning at Unconditional Surrender…the weather is clear, no breeze and 77 degrees already. A quick mile run to get the blood flowing produces a good sweat so I know what lays ahead. Two souls roll into the morning gloom to join me in defeating the darkness; Mopar and Papa Smurf. We go quickly cover …
Welcome back to our Wednesday evening gloom at Unconditional Surrender. Temps are sunny, blazing sun and 90 degrees with very little breeze to assist in cool downs. The usual suspects YHC, LL Bean and Lurch are ready to go at 1815 hrs. I go through the 5 core principles, disclaimers and warm up the Pax …
5 pax gathered together on this gloomy morning already with the thick feel and smell of summer. Unconditional has been a bit lonely so I was excited to see some familiar faces ready to tackle the John Ringling Bridge. A quick disclaimer was covered and we moseyed on out to the base of the bridge. …
Another glorious morning to get in some miles, cycling style. Ripken declared his departure at 5:30, YHC got in a nice little warm up and all met at 6 to take off for the usual route, doubling back a time or two to pick up the six. Was great to see Cottontail back out after …
8 Pax gathered at Camden Yard for an attempt at revival. As you know, Baltimore, where the original Camden Yards is located, is a big urban city with significant decay. And the Orioles’ park at Camden Yard, a few decades ago, was a symbol of a certain bit of revival, though things have deteriorated in …
Conditions: 78 degrees high humidity and dark. McNugget’s Birthday!!! And Big Mac’s is Tuesday! Chore principals covered and no FNGs. We started with the Mozi including butt kickers, high knees, Nur, skip and kerioke. We then grabbed our waters and headed over to the basketball court for another great warm up that included SSH, Strawberry Pickers, …
