Browsing: Heartbreak Ridge

Eleven strong emerged from the fog at Heartbreak Ridge. Several of the PAX were still sore from winning this weekend’s Century Classic but tales of the Westhoe’s domination gave the PAX energy for the beatdown: COP: SSH, Don Qs, Imperial Walkers, Helicopters, LBCs, Flutterkicks, Scorpion kicks. Over to covered area for pole smokers Indian run. Then up to PES lot for Dora: HRMs, Heels2Heaven, Jump Squats. Over to playground for 6 rounds of 6 Pullups. Back to QMS parking lot: Polar Bear across the lot, lunge back. Called for time. NMS: A solid 11 this morning and perfect conditions. The…

10 hombres gathered to see what THE Handshake had planned for Heartbreak Ridge. YHC got out of the car at 0529 and heard Atilla making jokes at Honeydos expense, 30 seconds of “pleasantries” and the clock his 0530 and we began to mosey. Circle up at the base of the Track at Quioccasin for a COP. Mosey down Quioccasin and across to Westridge. And turn right at Westridge where it and Camrose split. Start at house 1 and complete 10 HRM’s, mosey to house 2 and complete 20 WWII’s, mosey to house 3 and complete 30 Squats, mosey to house…

5:29:38 YHC pulls into the full Parking Lot of guys eager for a good beatdown. Quick mosey around the big Parking Lot and we circled up to Warmup. After Warmup was complete YHC asked the Pax if they wanted Door number 1 or Door number 2. Not a single Pax member raised their hands for Door number 1. Various exercises were done, its was a good time. Glad to see so many smiling faces. Announcements – The Bridge on April 26th with Corned Beef and May 10th with Hermes. Prayer Requests – Vinny lost his Father In Law last Tuesday…

A durable dozen PAX came out to HBR on a mid 40s morning. Some were dressed for a summer beatdown, others to shovel snow.

Word on the street was that today’s Q would be friendly to those recovering from injury, ground and pound with less running. Should YHC be offended…no just bring the red pill.

0500 YHC’s alarm goes off, feeling exhausted YHC was on the verge of turning the alarm off and fartsacking when YHC heard his M stirring. YHC knew his alarm had woken her up and if he did not get up she would be heavily annoyed. YHC quietly walked down the stairs and went to turn off his alarm and there was a text from the Q saying he had to bail. YHC was glad he didn’t fartsack or HBR would be Q-less. YHC couldn’t imagine the Pax without a leader to keep in check. YHC would rise to the occasion.…
