Preparedness is the state of being ready for something to happen, especially for war or a disaster, or if you didn’t know that Hawgcycle signed you up to Q. I rolled in today about 6:15 am and saw some PAX members assembled in a corner of the great lawn (not sure …
Turning 52 this day comes with a flood of memories from my past and the ever-present uncertainty for the future. I don’t know about you but I always get a little melancholy and introspective during this time of year as things slow down due to the Christmas holidays and (relatively) …
In signing up for the Q on Dec 23rd, I wanted to bring a little Christmas history into view as I created a Christmas themed workout. In modern times, the commercialization of the Christmas season along with a growing antagonism toward the Christian religion has lead to the increased removal …

Seeing that I never Q’ed Wolfpack Mountan…ever! I decided to start 2019 a little differently. In fact, I have never Q’ed any uptown AO since the 2014 beginning of F3 or my second beginning in Sept. 2016. That’s an entirely different story for another time. Anyway, T-Claps to Yankee’s text …
This was my birthday Q (51 yrs old) and I wanted to make it special for the PAX NOLA. As Christmas day is tomorrow, I wanted to not only strengthen the body but also strengthen the mind as well. As I was thinking about the direction I wanted to go …
