I thought you were lying.

Had 6 come out for some fun at Cletus. YHC had a few workouts in mind heading into Friday but the weather threw any plans out the window. The only thing I knew for sure was that we were going to do 100 burpees. Not sure if anyone was actually going to show, YHC, was somewhat surprised, given his love of burpees, to see Da Business ready to roll. When I got out of the car it was at that point he informed me that he hadn’t read the slack announcement of 100 burpees until about 1 minute before I arrived. I briefly thought about changing my mind….nah. Hardee, Flojo, and Nemo rolled in and off we went. Early in the workout Flowjo hurt his knee so he and Hardy left. Hope the knee is ok!

FNGs: Nope

Warm Up: Moseyed to picnic shelter. To get our 100 burpees in we had to start strong. Slaughter Starter 30 burpees OYO; SSH x 50 in cadence, windmills, fazio arm circles (forward/backwards), overhead claps, seal claps, jack webs; 10 burpees OYO.

The Workout: Partnered up for…

Round 1: Peoples chair (partner 1), bear crawl to end of pavillion crawl bear back (partner 2), 3 set each exercise

10 burpees OYO

Round 2: Balls to wall (partner 1), lunge walk to end of pavillion and back (partner 2), 3 sets each exercise

10 burpees OYO

Round 3: Peoples chair (partner 1), log jumps/bunny hops to end of pavilion and back (partner 2), 3 sets each

75 LBCs

10 burpees OYO

Round 4: Balls to wall (partner 1), sprint forwards to end of pavilion backwards back (partner 2), 3 sets each

10 burpees OYO

Round 5: Peoples chair (partner 1), bear crawl to end of pavillion crawl bear back (partner 2), 3 set each exercise

10 burpees OYO

Mary: Each Pax called out an exercise…6 inch leg lift/low slow flutters, homer to marge, Freddie Mercuries, American hammers, 10 burpees OYO (100 total)

Announcements: Big run tomorrow, Forceps son’s service moved to next Saturday.

T-Claps (Recognition): All PAX for coming out in less than ideal conditions and putting in the hard work.

Prayer: 1 minute of silence for Forceps son.

Go fast, turn Left

5 men braved the “wintry weather” (if 60 degrees and a misty rain qualifies as wintry weather) to get faster at R4tJ.  YHC took the Q Sheet after Banana Seats bulletin to fill it up and figured “Go run a route” wasn’t as much fun as doing something different.

FNGs: No sir
Warm Up: Red needed to lighten the load after EC, so we did some SSH / Good Morning / etc
The Workout:
Cones set up at 40 / 100 / 200 / 300/ 800 (ish) .  Run hard, then recover across the parking lot, then run to next cone.  Go up, then down the ladder as time allows.

Seemed like everyone pushed themselves pretty hard, nice job men.
Mary: Wasn’t invited
Announcements: Long Ass Run
T-Claps (Recognition): Gotta love Red getting the rocket boost and supporting the namesake
Prayer: Forceps, Lipstick, Crab Legs

I was hoping for 5.

YHCs first Q in 2020 at Downtown Train. Decided we would go on a little field Trip. Seven PAX took on the challenge, worked hard, and hopefully got a little stronger this morning.

FNGs: None. Almost a year of Q’ing and still haven’t had an FNG.

Warm Up: Jog to Womble. Circled on tennis court for: 10 burpess OYO, Hangy things 10 count x 2, SSH x 25, Merkins x 10

The Workout: Mosey’d to rock pile for rock then headed to picnic tables for the following full body workout:

Round 1: Step ups with rock 3 rounds x 10, 20, 30. Between sets of step-ups SSHs in cadence x 30, x 20, x 10

Round 2: Irkins x 5, x 10, x 15. Between sets goblet squats with rock x 30, x 20, x 10.

50 LBCs in Cadence

Round 3. Dips in cadence x 10, x 15, x 20. Between sets of dips, curls for the girls in cadence x 30, x 25, x 20.

50 Mountain climbers

Round 4. Lunges x 5 each leg, x 10 each leg, x 10 each leg. In between sets American hammers in cadence x 15, x 20, x 25.

Feel like I am forgetting a round, but…

Returned rocks and lined up for hallelujah Indian runs. YHC was hoping to do this the entire way back to Downtown Train home base, but was running short on time and we eventually just pivoted to a brisk jog back.

Mary: Got back in time to honor Da Business’s request of 5 burpees OYO.

Announcements: Long run Saturday on the ATT, multiple distances available ending at Mellow Mushroom in Durham. Multiple 3rd F opportunities coming up. Greenhouse build 2/29.

T-Claps (Recognition): All PAX this morning for working hard.

Prayer: Minute of silence for Forceps and his family.

Good Times at Johnsville

EC: UTI, Skidmark, YHC had an abbreviated EC that included the John
Warm Up: Jogging, Karaoke, Frankenstein, shuffles
The Workout: Reverse Indian Run down Paradise City EC route to the Bridgewater Pool. Pax paired up based on speed for partner loops. Partners went in opposite direction and met back at full loop (0.4 Miles) for Patty Cake Merkins x10 in Cadence. Repeated this 5 times with increasing intensity levels – 1K Pace 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%.  Pax headed back to Ting with cool down mile
Mary: Went through some stretching as we talked Announcements.

Quick Note from the Q: I often find I have pain during or after running that typically go away. A big part of this has to do with no warmup and cooldown. I purposely (and selfishly) tried to integrate more warmup and a cool down during our time.  I always tell myself I don’t have the time to spend on it and just need to get going for the miles.  I tried something different today by integrating the cool down into our announcement time. It was a great opportunity for Skid to share his thoughts/connection on the Run for Dedee 5K, while we all appropriately stretched our muscle groups.  All this to say, Find time for the pre/post run work. It will lead to better things, speed, injury prevention, etc…

Announcements: ATT Run 2/22; Standing 2F Thursday’s at Lowes Foods @ 530; Run for Dedee 5K begining of April at Sugg Farm See Skidmark for details
T-Claps (Recognition): All Pax for sticking with me this morning. I wasn’t sure how the turnout would be and I was excited to see 14 heads as I came back from the John!
Prayer: Sick Families (UTI’s), All those going through Addiction, Pikachu’s Wife who is dealing with Back Pain

Bring Your Bricks- 9 PAX Get 9 Exercises and 2 Miles at the Nut

YHC’s Q Tour took him to Nutcracker this morning. Rain in the forecast, but that didn’t deter 9 PAX from posting, including Slide Rule who had hoped his newborn would be uncooperative this morning and alleviate his conditional HC from the night before. Alas his 2.0 did Uncle Mookie a solid (see what I did there?), and an uncharacteristic Slide Rule rain post was made.

2 PAX for EC in the form of Flanigan and Nemo. As I arrived and planted the flag, YHC had to decline Nemo’s invite for EC as there were bricks to be found and puddles to confirm prior to the Main Event. After discovery of the bricks to confirm they would be ready for use, YHC returned to the flag to see cars start to roll in. Good crowd, however, I’m starting to feel that global warming having effects on several species that inhabit 12 Oaks. Haven’t seen a Swamp Donkey in some time and have seen a gradual dip in the number of Blue Hen sightings in recent months..Hopefully, we see some sightings soon in the next few weeks.

A hooded Da’Business came strolling in with Fanny Pack not far behind. Fanny Pack was hooked by the pre-blast marketing campaign from the day before, hoping to get his money-back guarantee. Pikachu, Redenbacher, Third Cousin, and of course, Slide Rule rounded out the PAX this morning. 6 o’clock hit and we were off with the following workout.

Warm Up: Light jog around the parking lot in front of the school. PAX then formed a single file line and performed zig zag side shuffles across 6 cones up the hill and around the lot. Performed another series of zig zag side shuffles going the other direction up the hill and around the lot. On the 4th pass, zig zag shuffled backwards from cone to cone and then remained in line for an Indian Run to the basketball courts.

Circled up for some TFB 12’s- Imperial Walkers in Cadence, Hillbillies, Good Mornings, SSH’s, Prisoner Squats (Aaron Hernandez’s- thanks Slide Rule).

Bat Wings- 20 Fazio F\B, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps. Light jog around the track to retrieve bricks from the woods. Light jog back to the basketball courts with bricks and circled up for some Clockwork Merkins- 1-6 o’clock with bricks in both hands as we turned the dial. Not to worry, we were gonna save the best side of the clock for last.

The Workout: With bricks in hand, mosey’d to the lane a good distance from the gate. YHC explained that we would be performing a series of 3X3’s with sprints in between.

Series 1- (Shoulders)

Alternate Arm Shoulder Presses with Brick in Cadence X24

Alternate Arm Front Raises with Brick in Cadence X24

Lateral Raises with Brick in Cadence X12

Sprint to the Gate, mosey back

Realizing we were a good distance away, much too long for continued sprints, YHC instructed PAX to squat hold for the six with bricks in hand. When all PAX were in, YHC instructed PAX to perform lunge walks further down the running lane to shorten the distance.

Series 2- (Arms)

Alternate Curls with brick (palms up) in cadence X24

Alternate Hammer curls in cadence X24

Overhead Tricep Extensions on YHC’s up X24

Sprint to the gate, mosey back

Still not happy with the distance, YHC again instructed squat hold for the six with bricks, and once everyone was in, we bear crawled with bricks to shorten the sprint distance some more.

Series 3- (Legs, Back, and Rear Delts)

Squats with Bricks X24

Alternate Rows with Bricks in cadence X24

Bent over lateral raises with Bricks on YHC’s up X24

Sprint, mosey back.

Squat hold with bricks for six, bear crawl to shorten the distance and then performed a rinse\repeat for one more round.

Mosey’d back to the brick hideout to return bricks and then proceeded in a half moon around the track to the back side of the school. Formed a single line and performed one final Indian Run the long way around back to the flag to circle up for Mary.

Mary: Finished the 2nd half of the clock (without bricks) with clockwork merkins from 7-12 o’clock. Plank Hold for 5 secs and then proceeded with Shoulder Taps X10, Nipplers X10, Plank Hold for 5 secs. YHC managed to keep PAX off the ground for the whole workout up until this point. It was raining and we were already wet, so YHC called for some American Hammers X20, LBC X20, Pickle Pounders X20 in cadence. Transitioned to downward dog, with a slow roll up. Left over Right, Right over Left to stretch out those hamstrings, and as it was raining, instructed PAX to do one final Shawshank stretch…

Announcements: Slide Rule is in initial discussions on an upcoming Golf Tournament, where we’ll need support from F3 SouthWake. Currently in discovery mode, but more details to follow on Slack in the upcoming weeks. 2nd F at Lowe’s Food in Holly Springs on Thursdays…$2.50 pints and fellowship..can’t beat that!
T-Claps (Recognition): All PAX posting this morning in the rain.
Prayer: Prayers for Nemo’s niece, who is recently engaged. Continued prayers for Pikachu’s M with back\neck issues and Wallaby. Also prayers for Flanigan and his cardio assessment.

First Q at Nutcracker and definitely not the last. Had a blast this morning, Men! Way to hold me accountable and always a privilege to lead.

1 Year for Downtown Train

1 year ago I launched Downtown Train with 3 things in mind.  I wanted to provide a 0530 start option (Paradise City as still 0545) for those of us with a little less flexibility in the early morning.  As much as I appreciate running, I wanted to provide a boot camp centric option with less miles.  And, I was excited about the parking deck (although I wish it had a couple more levels for some serious fun).  This has been a great AO.  We have our regulars and also tend to attract a diverse crowd every week.  Numbers have stayed low with other more well-known options drawing the large crowds.  That has worked well for those of us who enjoy a smaller group.  I have really appreciated the number of different guys who have stepped up to lead this AO, and having Coal Ash step in as co-Q.  Overall, solid 1st year for Downtown Train and here’s to many more great rides.

FNGs: not this trip
Warm Up: usual loop around downtown, circle up at the flag for 3 rounds – SSH, Good Mornings, Fazio Arms then SSH, Good Mornings, Mt. Climbers then SSH, Good Mornings, Goof Balls
The Workout: headed around the side of the deck and to upper level and started the 1st of 3 sets.  Lined up and did some shoulder burn.  Keeping the arms up, we did Fazios front, hold, Fazios reverse, hold, Seal Claps, hold and then Overheads.  Ran length of deck and knocked out some SSH as promised, then recovered on job and worked through the set a couple times.  Then we changed it up a bit with a shortened version of a Nemo favorite, the Red Barchetta.  Ran length of deck, SSH ICx50, return.  Ran length again and kept back and forth stopping for Mt. Climbers ICx40, LBC ICx30 and Merkins ICx20.  Some other stuff worked in there too but that was the basics of it.  Then we headed to lower deck and lined up on the wall.  Big focus again on really pushing our limits as we rolled through as follows with all in 15 count or ICx15: BTTW into plank hold, then shoulder taps, hold, then nipplers, hold, then bear crawl.  Recover back to wall, rinse and repeat.  Changed it up a bit on final set working in some people’s chair and merkins.  Guys were really pushing themselves through this set and it was pretty awesome to see the energy.
Mary: a couple quick rounds, keeping feet off the ground for 6 inch hold, low slow flutters to LBCs then some Homer to Marge
Announcements: plenty on slack and the calendar
T-Claps (Recognition): everyone who has taken the Q in year 1 for Downtown Train as there have been a lot of guys lead and a lot of great variety
Prayer: YHC shared a message about he importance of intentional communication with others in your life and the value of letting conversations be a little uncomfortable, prayers some spoken and many unspoken and YHC took us out.  Honor to lead this morning and great effort by all.

Can we find a dry line?

It’s a good thing Nemo and ShamWow! came to the party today. A fish and a magical rag is exactly what the weather called for… It’s always and honor to lead. Today inspired me to Q more often so if you fartsacked because you melt in the rain, I’ll let you know when reservations for fastpasses and dining experiences open again…

EC: Katniss

FNGs: Waiting for dryer weather…
Warm Up: For a moment, considered a shelter warm-up but what’s the point…

Quick mosey around the soccer field back to the lot for circle up. SSH x25, 5 Burpees OYO, Clap Series – Overhead x15, Seal x15, Overhead x10. Mickey Mouse Merkins (WDW) x5 slow count in cadence. Let’s go!

Better fix your watch…

EC: Skidmark

FNGs: Not today

YHC arrived with plenty of time to spare, planted the flag and gave out a few fist bumps. I noticed that my Garmin screen was frozen so went ahead and did a “soft” reset on it. After the watch rebooted and appeared to be good to go, I notice the group looking at me like it is time to go. Someone mentions that it is 5:31, check my watch again and I tell the group my watch says 5:26.  All I hear is “You better fix your watch”……circle up and start the with…

Warm Up:  10 x Frankensteins IC, 10 x SSH IC

T-Claps (Recognition): Everyone for picking up the six (me) today. Much appreciated. Rut for getting a PR today, good work!!

Prayer: Wallaby and his family, injured PAX and PAX who have not been posting….we would love to see you back in the gloom!

YHC took us out. Always an honor to lead.

Don’t be Fooled by the Rocks…12 PAX ‘Get Right’ with Cardio Trains at Downtown Train

No Super Bowl hangovers this morning for 12 PAX looking to get after it this morning at Downtown Train. Had been to this AO only twice before and really like the surroundings. Nemo really knew what he was doing starting this AO as the face lift to Holly Springs downtown was taking shape. As I planted the flag, Deadbolt came rolling in to cash in his HC from the night before. Katniss followed shortly after. I purposely showed early to evaluate the parking garage. Many probably know having Q’d several times before that things look good on paper, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it will translate on that morning, so its’ always good to do a walk through.

After placing my cone markers in the lot the way YHC wanted, I then proceeded toward the library to confirm the rock pit was still in business. Checked that off the list and then proceeded to the lot behind the library. Not knowing how many would show this morning, YHC needed to confirm a running lane that was wide enough for PAX not to run into one another for the suicides I had planned. 6 PAX wide max, maybe seven. Anything more than 7 and we’d have to partner up. Checked that off the list.

Mosey’d back to the lot, which at this point still only contained Deadbolt and Katniss’ trucks. Hadn’t gotten through my third good morning before seeing PAX starting to roll in. Pikachu first and then a series of 8 cars. One right after the other. Wait…is that Double D?

In fact it was and had later learned that it was his first post to this AO. Also nice to see Nemo roll in fresh off his trail race and a very productive morning in line at the new Sunset Dunkin Donuts in which he earned the rights to free coffee for the year.

5:30 hit and we were off…

Warm Up: Skinny brisk lap around the lot and circled up for the following: SSH X 31 (shout out to the Chief’s winning score), Imperial Walkers X10, Hillbillies X10, Good Mornings X10, Fazio X10 F\B, Seal Claps X20, Overhead Claps X20, Smurf Jacks X21, and then the a check of the time with some clockwork merkins, making sure we hit every hour. After we finished up the clock, YHC instructed PAX to count off in 2’s…

The Workout: With 2 lines formed, PAX proceeded with dual Indian runs to the parking garage where we merged into one long line. PAX performed a zigzag shuffle from cone to cone, 3/4th of they way down the long garage. Circled back around the lot to the beginning and proceeded with more shuffles in the other direction. After two rounds of this, YHC instructed PAX to get back in their two lines.

Once in 2 lines, PAX performed 2 sets of burpee indian crawls where PAX bear crawled in single file with the trailing PAX bear crawling at a faster rate to the front. When PAX reached a cone, they would yell “Burpee”. When this occurred all PAX performed 1 burpee, when they reached the second cone- 2 burpees and so forth all the way to the end all the way to six. Given my placement of the cones, this worked for the shuffles that preceded, but was confusing to PAX for the burpee trains. Note to self for next time. In any event, burpees where performed and PAX were putting in some great work.

After 2 rounds of the burpee train, instructed PAX on the circle back mosey to line up against the wall. Once the six was in, lined up for some balls to the wall, with 5 counts for each of the 12 PAX (approx..60 seconds- some slow counts\some fast counts). We then quickly went to People’s Chair for the same 5 counts among the 12 PAX. After these were complete, quickly transitioned to the opposite side of the garage where there were lower ledges….Perfect for some Erkins, Derkins, and Dips X 20.

Mosey’d out of the parking garage and quickly instructed PAX into their Indian Run lines. Mosey’d via Indian Run to the rock pile. Advised PAX to pick a rock they were comfortable performing exercises with. Nothing too crazy, but something that would challenge them without injury. John Cusack’d these gems to the parking lot behind the library. Partnered up, speed mattered.

Round 1- Partner 1-Curls w\rock…Partner 2-Tricep Extensions w\rock X20- then switch

After both exercises performed by each partner, they’d sprint to the middle of the lot to the flags and then back in suicide fashion.

Round 2- Partner 1-Goblet Squats w\rock…Partner 2-Squat Presses w\rock X15

After both exercises performed by each partner, they’d sprint to the middle of the lot to the flags and then back in suicide fashion.

Round 3- Partner 1- Rut Rows w\rock..Partner 2- Overhead Presses w\rock X20

After both exercises performed by each partner, they’d sprint to the middle of the lot to the flags and then back in suicide fashion.

Round 4- Partner 1 places rock on the back of Partner 2, who is holding plank position- Partner 1 runs to the far end of the lot and then they switch.

John Cusack’d the rocks back to the pile.

2 Lines formed again and we Indian Ran the long way back to the lot via the library traffic circle and around the lot using the same route as the skinny lap during the warm up.

Mary: After last night’s halftime show, there was no question that some J.Lo’s had to be on the menu. Did these in cadence X 20 (with lots of mumblechatter coming from DoubleD’s direction), Pickle Pounders X 20, Low Slow Flutter X20, American Hammers X15, Regular Plank for 10 count, Right Arm\Right Leg for 10 count, Left Arm\Left Leg for 10 Count, LBC X25. Have a Nice Day…

Announcements: Deadbolt has Purple Cobra tomorrow. YHC is hitting the reset button this month and planning to Q at every AO in the month of February (although after looking at the Q site sheet, slots are really filling up for this month… Nice work, Men!!!).

T-Claps (Recognition): Redenbacher coming in hot with a 6 Pack and a 9 Pack back to back. All PAX posting this morning after the Super Bowl.

Prayer: Prayers for Wallaby, those in the process of selling their homes, Pikachu’s M and current neck issues, Service Men and Women, including law enforcement and firefighters. YHC took us out.

What a way to start a morning, HIM. Always an honor to lead!

Line ‘em up, Line ‘em up, Line ‘em up

Retro train illustration isolated on white background. Design element for label, emblem, sign. Vector illustration

Downtown Train site is ripe with an empty two-level parking deck, fully striped, ready for exercises.

Flag planted 5:25 am. EC: Full House, Halfway House, Mr. Terrific

Warm-up:

Moseyed to church parking lot, but it didn’t feel right. We needed a warm-up before the warm-up! Mosey up the one way beside My Way, across Main to Raleigh, then back down to Ballentine. Left on Avent Ferry. Found new TOHS parking lot, which felt cozy after the mosey.

SSH 25x, Wind mills 10x slow with good form, GMs 10x, 5 burpees OYO

The Thang:

Mosey to upper parking deck. After confirming with Nemo that the stairs were open, climbed all the way to the second floor, which was too far. Not the first time anyone made this mistake. Finally exited onto the “upper” deck.

Rail Roads. Launched a series of Railroad Track exercises. Here’s the idea: Line up like an Indian run with one PAX per parking stripe. The six runs past the entire PAX and takes the next open stripe. Continue as an Indian run to end of parking deck, then return on the opposite set of parking stripes.

  • Railroad Round 1: Simple plank Indian run
  • Railroad Round 2: Simple plank Indian run but hop over PAX ankles
  • Railroad Round 3: Guantanamo following same pattern
  • Railroad Round 4: Chill cut Indian run following same pattern

Mosey down the steps.

People’s Chair Indian Run. PAX lines wall immediately at the bottom of the stairs. First PAX, Abe, counts to 10, runs to front of line. Next PAX, YHC, counts to 10, runs to front of line. Continue until last PAX, Mr. Terrific has completed three runs to front of line.

Rail Bear Crawls. Mosey to handrails near corner of Avent Ferry and Ballentine. Sideways Bear Crawl down rails 4x. Lead with right arm, lead with left arm, lead with right arm, lead with left arm. Squat and plank hold while waiting your turn. Full House led 10x Merkins before breaking up.

Mary:

Popcorn Mary. POTS 5 burpees OYO. New exercise from Sprinkler—can’t remember the name, but start with short quick kicks, extending kick higher as you go. No Rockette performers in this group! Freddy Mercury’s, LBCs, WWIIs, and more. Ran out of time so Abe and Nemo owe use some Mary exercises.

Announcements: Check Slack

Prayers: Sprinkler’s dad passed away early Sunday—prayers for him and his family in this time of grieving. Quiver’s M medical autoimmune issue. Nemo and M doing Hope Church’s Re-Engage program, may it be fruitful. YHC’s buddy who is revisiting doctor after hernia surgery.

TClaps: F3 South Wake’s impact on the community over the weekend with painting at Mama’s House and two roadside litter cleanups.
