3F’s its cold outside
Hey Baby it's cold outside............. YHC arrived early this morning ITG to place a few cones on the field near the pump house for an all around workout for the pax. Walking back to the car to get out of the cold and wind, low and behold, the man the myth the...
COLD AF
BossTweed couldn't make it so YHQ offered to fill in. I immediately regretted it when I stepped out of my garage and felt the North wind cut through my man tights like a knife. Warmed up the truck, heated seats and headed to Front St to meet my brothers. First was...
Look Russ No Lines
A Pax of 9 decided to show up to the latest edition of The Swashbuckler. Old man Winter wanted to hijack the Q but YHC wasn’t having it. This was the AO that the ball snipped Duck Butter founded, and as his tour guide through life, ole Steam wasn’t going to let a 25...
Are we Penguins?
Pay close attention to the video posted....as southerners, this epitomizes what we felt the morning was throwing at us. Slack had screen shots of 19 degrees and 17 degrees and even 1 degree in West Virginia and yhc Lassie was just a bit disconcerted as he is a solar...
We ain’t skeered of the cold!
I offered to take the Q today for Doublemint after his “dancing” incident put him out with a sore back. With it being the coldest morning so far, I was not confident there would be a big showing. But 2 others used their man cards and got out of the warm bed to better...
Bridges, BoBerrys and hitchhikers
YHC awoke to the pitter patter of rain, the stiff howl of wind and the thought that maybe no one would show up to the Prometheus ruck and he may just be able to get back Home in time for a few more minutes of shut eye. No such luck. After sitting in the Bojangles...
Hole in None
After a brief disclaimer the boys ran around the college to try to stay warm in the 30 degree temp. Then the rain starts to fall and suit-case starts singing the beatles song ( Here comes the sun.....) BUT it never came. I was proud of the boys this morning for...
Quad Focus
YHC got to the AO super early cause I couldn't sleep. Amped with anticipation to do my first Q. Decided to focus on legs today since I have a cycling addiction and figured I would use this platform to build leg strength and endurance. WARMARAMA Side Straddle Hop X 20...

COLD!! Lets Keep Moving
We Omaha’d To a 6am start for the day to get a little extra sleep from the Christmas fun. I realized rather quickly that it would just be the 3 of us. We asked about each other’s holiday and it was time to start. Warmarama: SSH x30 ic, Sun Gods x10 ic, Imperial...
Hey you kids, stay off of my lawn!
YHC arrived at the AO a little early but exhausted from a late night in preparing for a 2nd consecutive Q this week. @doublemint was scheduled to Q but was on IR due to a back injury. (There is no truth to the rumor that he injured it in a swing-and-miss elbow...
Gordy Lee F3/FIA Festivus Convergence Back Blast
A wet, chilly morning awaited the Q but was happy to see such a great turn out for the Gordy Lee F3/FIA convergence. A pax of 17 bad ass (Sorry Santa Claus) men, women, and 2.0's met in the rain and started off on the trail. As expected XBox disappeared in the...
The Ghost Flag Goes Home
Buttoncap came down with the flu and asked me to step in and I was excited to have the chance to lead today because I knew that we were going to have some Cape Fear visitors coming to take their Ghost Flag home. YHC arrived early to recon and welcome the Cape Fear...

CHOOSE RESPECT
YHC was glad to follow another PAX member to the AO, even though he didn’t recognize the vehicle. It turned out to be Spinal Tap, who joined Sniffer in the parking lot. YHC had stated if four or more show we will go it alone and leave the Swashbuckler’s to battle...
