As we gathered for the region’s premier Tuesday high-tempo workout, we almost all commented that the weather was kind of pleasant. That was our first mistake. A few minutes into the workout the humidity fully arrived, and it acted like we owed it...
Read moreGreat to see Giles running into the lot at 5:04, as YHC came in on two wheels. Quick stretch, down the road we go for 2 Run Club miles. Green Acres is out there… somewhere. It went like this as the premier no-running Thursday beatdown. The...
Read moreHere is how Q number 3 for the week went down. The pre-ruck was excellent, the conversation was solid, and the temperatures were pleasant. The Thang Structure: 5 Minutes ON / 3 Minutes “off”. Is it really off, though? (Narrator voice...
Read moreYHC used to be a certified regular at the premier Tuesday non-running workout. Since I started working in Clemmons, the double commute out just didn’t work as much, which is a shame. After today, a Parliament Renaissance may be in order...
Read moreOne familiar SUV sat alone as YHC pulled into the AO at 4:59am. Could it be? We have a $5 Foot Long post to start the week? Man, what a way to kick it off. Burns rolled in next, making the long drive over. Headlamps, calf stretch, off on the...
Read moreIt’s a late 90s tune by the short lived Dischord Reocrds band Bluetip. But it could have been our rally cry today. 4 pax made it to Hanes Park for this week’s WIB. A solid workout format that YHC does not attend nearly enough! It went...
Read moreWhat gave it away? The astronaut on my right calf? The full space sleeve? The nerd glasses? The Star Wars shirts? YHC digs space. The M and I have been geeking out on both the box office smash Project Hail Mary (amazae! amaze!) and the Artemis II...
Read moreGetting a Q that falls on a holiday is a layup. Your theme is right there! So for the St. Paddy’s Day edition of the region’s best evening workout, YHC kept it simple: music from noted Irish rockers Thin Lizzy (you know them from...
Read morePresident’s Day. Sort of a holiday? Going by today’s poll, 1 out of 4 have it off, and the 5th is retired, so whatever. Not a scientific poll, but it gives you a sense. To be honest, YHC was not sure what the turnout would be based on...
Read moreWhen the AO turns into a skating rink, you don’t run—you adapt. Horizontal distance was traded for vertical intensity today to avoid any unplanned meetings with the pavement. No running, so naturally the playlist was all songs about running...
Read moreThirteen PAX gathered in the gloom to face two legendary heavy hitters: Dora and Charles Bronson. The air was cool but not cold, no rain (yet), and the EC runners were stretching it out as we prepared to take on the Coal Pit and the Parking Deck...
Read moreIt’s not just proximity to House Wobegon; Reynolda Village is an objectively excellent space for an F3 Workout. So, anytime YHC can direct the pax there, you know I’m going to. Toot put out the Q-call for WIB, and here we are. It went like this...
