Five weeks ago YHC was a party of one at my Launchpad Q. As an avid recycler, I was looking for an opportunity to try that one again. Today was the day, and we had a nice crowd of 5! Almost 6! But Spicoli. 🤷♂️😄. Anyhoo, we started up a little...
Read moreBurns’s Toys
Tonka reached out about trading Qs after sustaining an injury at Friday’s Western Front. YHC happily obliged….and then remembered that Sunday was going to be a late night with a fantasy baseball draft, which Burns would also be participating...
Read moreTabata Tandem
I see we’re now in a “backblast optional” era here in DashLandia. Not on my watch! YHC put together a simple full-body plan for Launchpad on Monday, with a couple of caveats available with the slam balls and battle rope if there...
Read moreGood things happen when you show up for a Q
Last time YHC had the Q at #TheLaunchpad, YHC no showed. YHC had set the alarm, but did not remember it going off and thus left the #NorthernHIMs out to dry. @Burns the ever-faithful SiteQ made sure YHC had a time to redeem himself. Today was the...

President’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 Nan-Q no shows…
No EC run…too cold to go solo there. YHC, Green Acres, and Transcript got the WoR going in hope that the scheduled Q was on the way, but after no messages from Frosty, YHC took the reins for the morning WoR – SSH x20, IW x20, Whirlies...
Read moreAm I my brother’s keeper?
It was a cold, clear morning at the Launchpad. YHC was going to be there “right on time” so a preliminary text to the site Q was in order before leaving the house. Upon arrival, Burns and Transcript were in the parking lot, ready for action. I...
Read moreGettin it done
TIT wasn’t the only AO scrambling this morning! I awoke to a text from the scheduled Q that he didn’t sleep at all and had a rough weekend – noted. Get your rest, good sir. We’ll get it done. I also got a text from Rubber...

Read moreNew Blacktop, Who’s This?
Launchpad has received a makeover – a newly minted parking lot complete with painted spaces far exceeds in quality the gravel lot that was there prior. Unfortunately for the visiting pax, the gates were closed so we had to park across the...
Read moreLaunch right, live right.
This is the first time I’ve never personally scouted a foreign AO that I have the Q for, before. Burns gave me a good indication that almost all the tools are there, and truly there are some great ones. Still, I wondered what would live...
