  • Land of 1,000 Yards

    2 Q-destrians emerged for an OTB in the heart of New Kent for more running than the usual man would like to sign himself up for.

  • Merkin Mosey

    Choo Choo and Beaver couldn’t make it out to the Loco Motion AO, however, we met up to join forces for a Merkin 5k out at the Ol Lumberyard. Nearing the Merkin Challenge Month finish line our upper bodies are looking like something out of Baywatch (could be either sex) but feeling like burnt toast!

  • Summer Dreaming

    The same 2 Herculean Iron Haulin’ Brutes arrived on horseback this gloom to keep the torch burning with some sandbags and metal music! We kicked this gloom off with some Warmarama and great conversation about last nights Men’s Group.

    Countdowns – Start with a 10 Rep exercise called by either PAX – run a lap around the pavilions and meet up for a set of 9 reps and continue that pattern until finishing at 1 Rep. included: Ball Dippers, Pistol Squats, Weighted Step Ups, Wojo Squats, Sandbag Squats, Burpees…

    3 Sets – 30 sec Wall Sit / 10 Donkey Kicks / 10 Hoe Downs – run a lap around the snack shack after every round.

    3 sets – 10 sandbag Squat Thrusters – run the snack shack between every set.

    3 Sets – Core Stuff! P1 Freddie’s until P2 completes 12 sandbag WWIIs. Run a lap and switch P1 with P2, run a lap (that’s 1 set)

    3 Sets – Bench Raises – Pit a sandbag on the edge of the picnic bench and perform 20 calf raises per set, run a lap after each set.

    CoT

    Moleskin: every man hits that fork in the road of life, to go down a path of his own or God’s, the path of his own is unchanging and ends in the way of nothing but a sad clown. Then there’s the other path of having faith and following the plan that God has set out for you, into the unknown and the wild, but that same faith will get you through anything and that is ultimately the life of adventure and legacy we want to leave behind.



  • Not Keen on the Neighborhood Hound

    2 Herculean men emerged from the gloom into the field of the Iron Haul!
    It was BYOCoffee on the ruck to keep up the core temps. We stuck around a bit to make it a solid 5k. Look at for that rowdy dog at the cul-de-sac!

  • BBBLAZE

    With the strength of 20 men at the Lumberyard this gloom, emerged 2 grizzled gladiators! But first, they had some detective work to do as an abandoned, smooshed up BMW was found in the parking lot, much investigation and speculation was made in place of Warmarama. Once we realized we could go no further with the investigation, we called in the Sheriffs dispatch knowing full well every time a sheriff is present, 10 burpees must be performed. The following is the Q Potato witnessed by a smashed beemer and a couple of Sheriff Deputy’s. Warmup with 10 burpees.

    Snake Lot Squats – Follow the parking spaces in a snake travel pattern, perform 3 air squats per parking spaces.

    Indigenous PAX – Round 1 – P1 Lunges with 50 lb sand bag , while P2 runs around the parking lot, switch when runner catches up to lunger.
    Round 2 – P1 3 Merkins and bear Crawls, P2 runs around the lot.

    Do a bit of mid workout Warmarama and stretching and another Deputy showed up (10 burpees).

    Wonka’s brother in law joined us for Mammoth this morning, Harrison (31) from upstate NY? Or more like all over the country, told us of his story of he and his wife quitting their jobs and traveling all over the countryside, Thus, he was to be named Teton after the Grand Teton mountains. Thanks for coming out Teton! We hope you continue to make some F3 visits.

  • Merkin Run

    2 magic men emerged in the early gloom for some EC. While everyone else in New Kent seemed to be in the beautiful woods hunting for some Whitetail, we were out running 2.5 miles and logging 110 merkins in the process.

  • Q Tater!

    4 Mystery Men emerged from the gloom for a 70 & Sunny good time at The Lumberyard! Nobody had the Q on the sheet so we tossed around the tater for the workout! Beaver sounds like he’s going through puberty with this strange cold.
