YHC was inspired by last night’s hockey game to tour the city of bridges in the Afton Swamp. Fortunately we had MECA’s official bridge inspector with us for safety and we were off with FNG Tony in tow. The plan was to cover a little bit of ground and keep the arms fresh for the […]

Bells/Weights on the Fly
YHC has been enjoying his semi-regular Monday appearances at the Dawg House for some non-running and weight lifting. The soccer arms seem to be less soccerly and there is only a few months until tank top season. YHC didn’t check the Q sheet the night before or look at Slack and was surprised to find […]
IC-Light
The Aftonians were initially out of sorts this morning, without the scheduled Q and fresh off what sounds like an epic defeat at LOTR trivia the night before. Terrible Towel hijacked the Q and had to repeatedly fend off Hop-Hunters attempt to be in charge again. The real Q reported back later in the morning […]
Dawgs Murdering Bunnies
YHC arrived early at the Dawg House this morning, anticipating receiving the keys to a certain Cadillac after winning the Showcase Showdown several weeks prior. Alas, it was not meant to be as only five other Dawgs posted this morning. Warm-up: Running some parking lot lines SSH IC x 15 Penny pickers IC x 15 […]
Another Iron Q beatdown
While @Amway and @Hokey-pokey gave each other pedicures at the beach, the men at Afton finished TT’s Iron Q week with another Iron Q throwback. The pax were much more boisterous this morning, perhaps it takes them awhile to wake up or they were excited about the block work. Warm-up, grab a block, head to […]
Iron Q at the Afton Library
YHC thought it fitting to steal some Iron Q week beatdowns for his Iron Q week. Big turnout of 9 quiet pax this morning. Warm-up Mosey to the office buildings The “Loredo”: 6 rounds of 24 squats, 24 merkins, 24 walking lunges (counting one leg only), 400 meter run It was noted that the Pax […]
Afton Animal Cruise
5 HIMs swam through the Afton swamp and ran the apartment loop in reverse. @Majorpain lost his sleeves en route this morning, and we passed several frogs, a gaggle of geese, a black cat in front of our path, and a groundhog on our way. The Iron Q week will feature more Iron on Wednesday […]
DH Shuttle Run and Fun
YHC answered @yellow-cake’s SOS last night and grabbed the queue while @talledega slumbered away dreaming of whatever he dreams of. Seeing @hokie-pokie’s strong yellow arm response on Slack made me think of doing the shuttle run in his honor. Glad he didn’t show to see it. YHC was surprised to see @Porto on a Friday […]
Sharknado and humidity debut at Afton
7 Aftonators swam through the swamp this morning to complete many miles of running, rucking, and I believe our first planned #Sharknado. With half of the pax at the beach and 100% humidity, YHC thought it would be a perfect time to sneak out Sharknado. It turns out, if you don’t build it up or […]
Terrible Towel’s 4 year anniversary beatdown
YHC had the Q to celebrate 4 years (ish) of F3. Following @chachi’s lead from last week, YHC searched far and wide on the MECA site for details of his first post but to no avail. YHC tried to remember as best as he could and keep the group moving considering the temperature. Warm-up (sort […]
