55s – from Rudy
Whew. It was Hot and Muggy. No wind. Just moisture lingering in the air. High Rise and I staring at watches, wondering if it was going to be a Man Date or not. But SOGO, Frac and Saban rolled in hot – so 5 of us set off to the …
High Rise
Murph Training – from Rudy
Okwata – the home of the pull-up bars. And YHC is definitely going to need help with pull-ups, if he is to have any hope of completing a Murph this year. And since there is no Try, only Do – YHC grabbed the Q with the intent of starting to …
We’re Conveniently Located Near Alabama – from Glitter Balls
5th or July, 5th week of GB Q’ing The Foundry, coincidence? Follow the numbers, trust no one. Another conspiracy that the astute Foundry regular may notice, we’re being invaded by F3 Birmingham. Last week we had Upchuck, this week we had Bullseye. Who will we see from Alabama next week? …
An Uninteresting Stat – from Glitter Balls
So, we’re on week 4 of GB’s Foundry monopoly, and we’re loving it. Actually, Goose had the Q on the sheet but I think that was a misclick because Goose was nowhere to be found and none of us are sure who Goose is. Anywho, it was humid as all …

Belated 48th B-Day and Jazz Fest Preview – from Bongo
Actual Birthday is 5/1 but I just didn’t have the availability to Q earlier this week. This this time of year has always been great for me, birthday, great weather, festival season and all else, what could go wrong? Glad to see (6) other PAX showed up for the occasion, …
4×20 on 420 – from Rudy
Delightful gloom at the lakefront! 8 PAX celebrated 420 day. Thanks to all of the millenials who were able to explain to YHC *why* 420 is now associated with weed. Rest assured, no weed was present at the workout. Mosey to the foot of Canal Street for a quick warm …
Dewars, Storks and Peanut Butter and Butter – from Rudy
Yesterday (April 14th) was 3rd anniversary of my dad’s passing. YHC brought some memories to the beatdown this am. At 628am, YHC opened up the Mini, asked everyone to grab a pair of bricks. At 630am, YHC turned on the 80s playlist, and the 13 PAX moseyed (with their bricks) …
BLIMPS, BLIMPS and BLIMPS – from Rudy
Just like the title said, 4 PAX (2 on-time, 2 rolling in hot) joined YHC for a morning of BLIMPS at Okwata. Blimps 1: A Ladder. Starting on top of the levee with 5 burpees. Run down and back up. 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges. Down and Up. Keep adding the …
First MG Weekend Buy-Back – from Glitter Balls
Temp: Cold Enough Conditions: Nice Enough Pax: Cheesesteak, High Rise, Cracklin, YHC. I woke up in the bushes outside the Children’s Museum sometime around 0500, daiquiri still in hand and both an umbrella and sunscreen on my person due to the schizophrenic weather of the weekend. Unsure of how I …
