It’s been awhile since YHC Qed so I got back into it and picked a few other days. There happened to be an FNG too. Bonus! The weather was nice as the PAX gathered. 2 Badlanders graced us with their presence. A welcome site. Welcome, disclaimer, and brief description of cadence and why we are […]
16 PAX showed up in the gloom of another balmy fall day…Without wasting much time YHC skipped the pleasantries and at 5:30 went right into the warm-up… WARM UP SSH – Side Straddle Hop – 12 Don Quixote – Windmill – 12 Peter Parkers – 12 Hillbillies – 12 Moroccan Night Club – 12 Chinnooks […]
Five PAX joined QIC on this warm Tuesday morning knowing ahead of time that it was a RUN DAY! (Probably the reason others Fartsacked!) And RUN we did! Message of the day was DO NOT DISTURB! (DND) As men, we often think about DND as sign on a hotel room door, but DND can apply […]
When : 10/11/2018 QIC: Inside/out the pax: peg, dollar bill, mcdreamy, pom pom, papa smurf, shinola, Mr yuck, yard sale, gizzard, full monty, Gravy, Outhouse, Zamboni, air bags, bull winkle, kodak The Q has been sick for a few days but I struggled through it. Wanted to thank P smurf for helping me a little. Warm […]
The men of the Badlands arrived early on this Monday morning dedicated to pushing ourselves and each other to be better. Fresh off his trip to Miami to watch the Bears blow a big lead, the YHC admonished the PAX to discover their hidden flaws/issues/sin that often manifest in ways that are destructive to ourselves and those we […]
Before F3, my comfort zone was running a few miles whenever I could squeeze it in. Even though I knew that getting out of bed at 4:30 in the morning was the right thing to do, I couldn’t pull the trigger…and then I did it a few times during the week and now it’s a […]
YHC got his run in early so he could scout Boondocks for a place to set for this morning’s baseball themed beatdown. He was fortunate that the gates to the adjacent baseball field were open, so the set up was minimal. It may have helped, however, if he had announced earlier in the week that […]
YHC has found that at the advanced age of 54 — albeit, a young 54 — nervousness rarely visits him. Today was one of those occasions, however, as YHC was Q’ing his first Badlands Broga Beatdown. YHC had long resisted such a Q; with the flexibility of a two-by-four, yoga does not come easy to […]
Despite a hurricane on the horizon and YHC’s pre-blast prediction of a dismal beatdown, 13 brave souls arrived with running shoes on. They were uncertain but committed. They were ready for the unknown, confident that in the end, they would overcome. They were (duh, duh, duh…cue the dramatic music…), BADLANDERS!! Whether verbalized or not, each […]
Overnight rain couldn’t keep 16 PAX from coming out and enjoying a baseball conditioning style workout. YHC is a huge baseball fan and with the Playoffs upon us I figured we needed a workout on the diamond. The theme of the day was embracing our weaknesses. Over the last 4+ months, I have had a […]
