What is essential is invisible to the Eye.
5 Pax posted on a glorious October morning. They say Youth Is Wasted on the Young….the young must have been sleeping in this morning as the average age of the Pax was upwards of 55+. It might indicate the realization from the older Pax that health is indeed important and working out is essential to […]
T.S. Nestor Was Afraid of Getting HIIT
When YHC awoke to prepare for his Q (he was a replacement Q for Big Bird who found himself on IR late this week), it sounded like it was going to be a soggy one. Tropical Storm Nestor was predicted to have its most significant impact to the Jacksonville area around the time of our beatdown. […]
Rucking In The Rain!
The weatherman predicted a monsoon would hit Memorial Park #F3Anchor as well as the rest of #NorthEastFlorida but that didn’t dissuade 5 brave souls from coming out for a #FreeMensWorkout! In light of the fact that #GoRuckSelection was coming to a close, YHC figured a Ruck Workout would be fun! Toxic showed up like Gene […]
Happy 45!
On this cool Autumn morning (65 degrees), I arrived to celebrate my 45th birthday at the Badlands. I challenged the group to consider the 6 factors of 45 (failure to do so would result in penalties). The PAX was prepared but someone (Saigon Sam) showed up late by a mere 30 seconds. Oh well, 10 […]
“It is Well with My Soul!”

Discipline Means Showing Up.
“If the mind is disciplined, the heart turns quickly from fear to love.” John Cage Todays message brings to light the importance of posting often and regularly. Today the Q couldn’t wait to get going after getting smoked by Jumanji on Saturday and fartsacking the past two days. There are other days when comfort wins […]
Bridge Over Troubled Waters
5 men descended on the Badlands with much excite and enthusiasm. DB educated the PAX that a Baptist gospel inspired Simon & Garfunkel’s classic hit “Bridge Over Troubled Waters,” according to Garfunkel as recounted in several interviews. The lyrics hit on the need for us to turn to our faith, family and friends in times […]

Top Something…
Seven Pax braved the traffic and the risk of being seen in the light to adventure to Top Golf for an impromptu Q. One of the Pax brought his own clubs(yeah, that guy), and another left the office at 5:30 and went to “COSTCO” before the appointed tee time of 6:30.(sure he did). Much like […]
