9/11 Intro and Timeline (Narrated by Cross Stitch) “I can hear you, the rest of the world can hear you and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.”― George W. Bush 20 years ago, this Nation was shook to its core. Today would be a time to honor those that gave …
Conditions: High 60s, dark and gloomy with mist (that turned out to be mosquitos) over the Carolina Forest Community Church (CFCC) football field where we’d do most of our work… This morning was to be a co-Q with my 3F co-Q Pikachu on September 3rd…”333”…something that the #BombSquad (BS) AOQ thought was numerically “campy”. Who …
AO: BombSquad Conditions70’s, 90% humidity Finally got a chance to Q for the first time since the middle of July and decided that I was going to try to make the most of it. Ran into Sade’ in our neighborhood this past weekend and not so subtly asked him if he was going to make …
AO: BombSquad Conditions: Prefect Q-101 was an annual event until Covid 19 reared its ugly head. Since that time, I do not believe it has been done (and if it has, my apologies). One Call has always Q’d it up and has done a great job demonstrating how a beatdown should be run. Q 101 …
So having been AWOL from the Bombsquad Q sheet, I took the con on a nice Monday in August. I show up at 10 past the hour, to see 3 pax in the gloom standing guard over the Shovel Flag. Seeing how my plan would necessitate 8 pax minimum, it was a welcome sight to …
AO: Elevation Monday Conditions: Perfect Pax: Headgear, Boxcar, Hamburglar, Drifter, Candy Cane, Fergie, Quaker (QIC) Gotta text from Boxcar on Saturday to see if I would Q today’s Elevation Runday . . . my answer, “Sure”. And there it was, commitment as “Easy as a Runday Morning” (possible BB Title?). We’re about 20 days out …
CONDITIONS: Temp was in the low 70’s. Not as refreshing as the weekend but better than it has been for several weeks. As I pulled into the AO 12minutes early I realized that more than a few eager pre runners had beat me there and were already burning calories. THE THANG: YHC had been planning …
I read about the actor who cameo-ed as Hercules in the recent Thor: Love and Thunder movie. He did 400 push-ups a day to quickly prepare for the short role and I thought to myself, “I wonder if I can do 400 merkins in a beatdown” Lo and behold, I see my name on the …
AO: BombSquad Conditions: Perfect Got a text from Candy Cane last night wanting to know if I was in for the Saturday Morning Pre-run from BombSquad. . . Answer: Yes! Do you want to go long? Answer: Yes. . . 8 miles maybe more? The call then went out over Slack that we would be …
Conditions: High 60s, low humidity, and of course dark at 0510 when YHC rolled into the Carolina Forest Community Church (CFCC) campus. YHC / QIC took a rare opening for a Saturday Q at BombSquad (BS) AO where YHC was #EHd roughly 5 years ago! Not a whole lot of chatter on the BS slack …
