Another Tuesday and another record turnout—25 pax brave the cold temps. The Pax were particularly chatty this morning, but were dismayed to find out YHC had a smoker planned. Conditions—COLD No worries, I hear a train coming. Quick Disclaimer right before the train rolls by—burpees. Luckily for the Pax, it

No More Curse
Today’s workout was dedicated to celebrating the Cubbies and honoring their long-suffering fans. Fittingly, some of the Pax and (especially) Q Slugger showed up bleary-eyed after a long night of awaiting the outcome of the Greatest World Series Game Ever.™ Nothing like an early morning workout to shake those cobwebs
Post-Halloween Variety Show
YHC thought a little fun after a night of trick or treating was in order, so we had a Halloween party /Variety Show (or whatever you want to call it) with music, frights, and candy. Disclaimer Prayer COP SSH x15 IC TTT x10 IC DQ x10 IC IW x10 IC
Abs for breakfast? Ab-solutely
YHC had a conversation with Pythagoras in the not too distant past about how a good ol ab workout was needed. It ain’t needed anymore. The work’s been done. And we’re better for it. Just don’t cough or sneeze for a couple days. This is how it went down. Weather:

Tabata—what?
You’d think the JC Pax would have learned by now that when Donatello sends out an email and asks for Q’s—someone needs to respond. This day was particularly challenging, given YHC was hobbled coming off a 10K OCR on Sunday. Appearantly jumping from a 9-10 foot embankment into grass (which did
2 Mile Follow-The-Chalk Run
With eight brothers gearing up for the Goliath 10K course on Sunday, I was inspired to simulate a run-heavy obstacle course as best as we could on our home turf. Plus, I hate to run, so I always schedule a lot of it when I’m on the Q. Disclaimer Prayer COP
Who Cut the Deck?
Today’s plan was simple. YHC had planned to spring a nice little shuttle run beep test on the Pax, but after 2.5 miles of stairs yesterday—audible. Back in the day—before F3—a deck of cards was my go to workout when I wanted variety but didn’t want to put the thought
