What had happened
With my Zeppelin and Stones playlist humming we had plenty of chatter and discussion around the different pastors of today and Steven Furtick and his propensity for pushing the limits and joking about using cocaine…that’s all.
We did not use cocaine at the workout today. Well at least I didn’t.
Prayers for Diego, F3 metro cyclist who is battling for his life after a bad accident.
Only 3 guys today but a great morning, perfect weather and always a good time.

2 mins late
MARY: no ANNOUNCEMENTS: blood drive
COT: thanks Astro for leading us out – a few of you did burpees… not sure how many. I made it up to 7 rounds – The old women on the track were not happy with us blowing the whistle or the mid track burpees. Mr Brady got spoken too – Benny took a digger on the flats…bummer – Everyone seemed to pair off today, glad you found a running buddy!

Up your game!

Date: 2025-09-08 AO: firestarter Q: kirby PAX: war_eagle, teddyf3, Adobe, madison, wildturkey, Roulette FNGs: None COUNT: 7 WARMUP: Do a lap around the yoga studio. Do some odd number SSHs MCs and Squats and Merkins. Weird numbers it will make sense in a few THE THANG: A test of amazing eye hand coordination was on display. We had many choke. At this level of competition who could blame us. So much on the line we prayed that eagle eyed war_eagle or the old gunslinger teddyf3 would rise to the occasion! Some played smart like wildturkey and some shot from the farthest and seemingly impossible distance that only a man crazy enough like madison would try. Roulette gutted the entire workout through shear determination. Adobe getting in on the consistency and swapping conversations with old friends was great to see. YHC is not done yet. We have more to bring tomorrow! MARY: During ANNOUNCEMENTS: ultra 5k Oct 4th COT: Pray for madison s father who lost his friend.

This might get weird

Date: 2025-09-08 AO: swole Q: flipper PAX: Unplugged, Soul Glo, Uncle Leo, Pepsi, flipper FNGs: None COUNT: 5 Ah yes, the unfettered frontier of Monday morning with no spreadsheet to for the Q’s hand into endless repetition of squats and presses, a true thing of beauty. Taking advantage of the freedom, YHC showed up this morning with a few new concepts to try out on the unsuspecting PAX. Mercifully site FNG Pepsi saved us from the worst of my creativity as it seemed only reasonable to call something more meat and potatoes oriented with someone new to bells in the fold.
WARMUP: SSH, IW, Swings, ST, Arm Circles THE THANG: Voodoo Complex, 1 rep through. 2 reps of each movement all the way through, 3 reps of each movement all the way through.
Thusly warmed up we moved into a circuit where the timer was the PAX in deadlifts (28 Kg doubles) doing 10 reps. One PAX on break. The other three stations were planked row static hold, kneeling shoulder press, prying squat curls. We did this 6 times through.
Suitcase Carries followed with eccentric one arm presses at the end of each carry MARY: Boat-Canoe, Flute Bridge, Alternating Plank ANNOUNCEMENTS: 10/10 Blood Drive COT: YHC took use out

Saturdays are for the chickens

Date: 2025-09-06 AO: chicken-run Q: midriff PAX: toolbag, HazMat, Lasso, soft_pretzel, Green Label FNGs: None COUNT: 6 Run the Ballantyne Country Club route for another Saturday flying with the chickens. Highlights: – HazMat prepped for his VA 100-miler and at one point called himself a little B**CH for turning down Rea to finish his run home instead of finishing the route with us, finishing with 22 miles on the day instead of 20. You are a badass sir. – Lasso completed his longest run YTD and gutted out the final miles as he preps for the Charlotte marathon. – toolbag joined us just in time and initiated conversations around favorite soups, energy drinks and Charlotte divebars – soft_pretzel crushed each Country Club hill, discussing Wake Forest football and the Eagles victory on Thursday night – Green Label had us beat not even halfway through the route and charged ahead of the pack, gliding effortlessly down Ballantyne Commons
Make it a great Saturday boys – I’m grateful for you!
