Introduction
Ive been putting a Q together with the telephone logs from GrowRuck Plainfield, and finally had the opportunity.
Its cold. Really cold. like . . . . Glass joe is 100% guaranteed to not post kinda cold.
I lower my expectations for Q attendance anyways at this point, but was pleasantly surprised with the turnout considering the weather.
Warm-O-Rama
The usual
The Thang
Race track set up on the football field. Goal was that everyone would get through the logs at least 5 times. (mission accomplished.)
START
- 10 merkins (hands on coupon)
- run to next station
- One log flip (lifting one end, walk your hands down the log until you can flip it over. Every time through the circuit, this INCREASES by one log flip)
- Run to next station
- 10 body weight squats
- Run to field goal posts
- There are 4 sections in the posts. Do ascending pull ups 1,2,3,4 in each section
- Run to lit hockey puck
- 10 yards broad jumps
- run to next lit hockey puck
- 20 yards walking lunges
- run to next field goal post
- Power clean a sandbag OVER the horizonal bar TWO times
- Run to coupons. 10 curl to press.
Repeat circuit until 5:59
Circle of Trust
CoT
I stayed at a waterpark after Abominable last weekend, and as my old body was getting into the hot tub a guy asked me what the tape on my shoulder was for and why I had a huge bruise on my arm. I explained to him what the race was and he looked confused as he asked “why would you do that?”
Because we can. Because we Fking can.
This is the kind of stuff that keeps us young. Playing games in the woods. Sports for older guys. But like sports these things all have an expiration date, so take advantage of it while you can.

Ive been a terrible slacker on submitting backblasts. So time to get back in the habit.
Baywatch- Next time I’ll bring a stepladder for the pull ups. My apologies
Cousin Eddie- Same thing as Baywatch. Also, great job on the log flips!
Baby hands- I cant remember the last time you came to one of my Qs. The pressure was on. I didnt sleep a wink. I mean . . . would BH like the workout? Would he negatively pan it? I think I have an ulcer just thinking about it . . .
Chainlink- Its almost not fair that a guy that posts so seldom can be such a badass and zip ahead of everyone while maintaining a steady stream of mumblechatter with BH.
Mellencamp- Considering you went to a Bulls game the night before I am shocked that you posted! Really puts all the PAX that didnt post at all to shame. . . . TO SHAME I TELL YOU.
Speaker City- Site Q extraordinaire! Always early, ready to help set up, has lit up hockey pucks ready, and slays every workout that he has to attend. Bad. Ass.
Backdraft- You HCed, then sneakily deleted it, hoping no one would notice. Busted.
Beetlejuice- Flat out fartsack. Hope everything is OK.
Riunite- Happy birthday to your M.
