When I went to bed last night there was nothing on the #calendar channel on Slack for this week's workouts or who was the Q for Jailbreak. I checked it again while taking care of the morning business at 5:00 AM. On my drive to the pier for Jailbreak I started dreaming up some ideas [...]
It was weds late morning when CowTipper notified he could not make the next day's Renegade Q. I waited for any takers then started to plan the workout - Do ah Diddy's were making the cut. I arrived 15 minutes early and enjoyed the quiet gloom, resting on a bench as I only slept about [...]

(3) A.L.A.R.M. or an almost mayday! July 22, 2019 I was excited to sign up for a Monday Q but also nervous as it was only my second one. Some new guys would be there as well as a lot more terrain to move about. I had a plan brewing for a few weeks but [...]

A belated back blast by Blackberry… Tuesday 6-11-2019
Ten pax met in the gloom for a little weighted beatdown led by YHC. Longtime Kotter Sausage Guy and short time Kotter Fidget Spinner made triumphant returns, and Siri shifted his weekly Tuesday morning call to make it to Ironman for the first time. After Dodgeball’s beat down yesterday, I was inspired to build more [...]
