A week of Lunchbox- Day 2 – Black Ops
I called for a black ops ruck to satisfy my need for a Sunday Q to get my 7 in 7. I knew my chances for getting any Pax to show were slim since we don’t call many evening workouts on the west end of Carterico. Nonetheless I showed up at the AO at about 6:20 and...
A week of Lunchbox – Day 1 – FOD
With my 39th birthday approaching on Tuesday, I decided to go for a 7-in-7 Q week. Over the past two weeks I’ve been having serious doubts about that decision. But nonetheless, I will see it through, and it began with the Field of Dreams. 7 men of abnormal strength...
Gordy Lee Back Blast 8.5.18
It was nice to see the sun this morning, at least until we started running. 7 gathered, including one pax member who had been lost in a central American rain forest for a week. 4 ran and 3 rucked. It was not glorious for YHC, who is still trying to recover from Lone...
“60% chance of thunderstorms”
Going into my first Q, I expected horrible weather; as we have had for the past two weeks. I drove over the emerald isle bridge at about 7:10 to a beautiful view of the sun over the water. It ended up being the nicest morning I've worked out on. Right before we...
Tied to the Docks
The forecast for the morning was rain and wind. YHC was not expecting very many of our dedicated Pax to show up. Not because they are not dedicated....they are the BEST. However, there were lots of complications....yada...yada...ya! So YHC is walking around and a...
Hero Patriot 08.04.18
For the first time in a long time, we began a workout without any rain falling or lightning striking. The lack of rain and lightning must have scared off many of our PAX who have become accustomed to the stormy conditions, with the exception of the 5 men that showed-...
Man O War – Back Blast 08-1-2018
Not having the usual time to opine and wax poetically as I'm late to leave for Chapel Hill here it is. 0530 - Disclaimer delivered and Mosey to the Maritime Museum for Warmarama Hilly Bill X 10 IC Good Morning X 15 IC HR Merkins X 10 Imperial Walker X 10 Cotton...
Wetter than Burgundy’s Boogers
YHC awoke at 0430 to the sound of thunder and heavy rain...what a surprise. The M and I are thinking of moving to Portland or Seattle where we can see the sun every now and again. Undaunted (ok I was daunted but got out of the rack anyway) YHC dressed and headed to...
Clam Diggin’ in Beaufort by the Sea
YHC arrived in the gloom at the Dock House parking lot with little time to spare only to find that no one had arrived. As I gathered my gloves and braced for the rain YHC sees Boss Tweed and Bunyon coming in hot! We mosey to an awning and a very recently named FNG...
Rack N Stack at The Court
YHC rolled up to the parking lot a little early to find Monkey Wrench already in place with the shovel flag out. As we waited a few minutes wondering if we would be the only to show, two unrecognizable cars pulled up. Possible FNG's? Nope, 3 pax from the west. One who...
Track Work
There were 14 at the Rolling Stone 530 hard start little mosey around the parking lot for some warmarama then it was off to the track for some squats,merkins and WW1,s
Then there were 5
Nice stroll over the Boro bridges to watch the sunrise. Purple Rain and Couch Potato wanted extra credit for running!

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Writing this backblast for Snow White's Green Mile VQ on 7/16/18. Great turn out for this man's VQ with the weather not cooperating. Thunder and rain was sporadic through the run but 7 brave souls showed up to support Snow White on his VQ. Snow White first ran the...
Rainy Day at the Beach
It was a rainy day in Emerald Isle. The HCs were light in volume and the ride west was long, but YHC was ready to work hard on some unfamiliar sand. As 7:15 came closer, the trucks started piling in from the boys at the Field of Dreams. With a welcome, disclaimer,...
