TB’s 3Q

The BackBlast:

Today was Q number three for TB. The Q arrived with confident, became humbled, and bounced back with strength by the conclusion of the 3.4 mile workout.

We departed Latta Park heading toward East Blvd. where we did a warmup in cadence set of Side Straddle hop. The Q’s cadence count was off rhythm and choppy. The chirping began to get traction.

We headed down East Blvd toward Harris Teeter and pulled off into a small parking lot for the next workout – The Bear Crawl. Turn of event – The Q was directed into a low-lit side entrance where it seemed some ceremonial initiation was about to occur. Rather, Pate was taking a fellow man under his wing to explain the correct cadence count in the absence of all the other background chirping.

After this “training session” the Q felt he was getting his footing back… To keep these men on their toes, the Q called out the LBC, but proceeded with the bicycle…. The chirp returned with strength. This did not stop the Q, only encouraged the Q – We headed down Kenilworth doing Merkins at each cross street where we later converged with Big Hair.

We collectively headed toward the hospital parking garage where we did some stair climbs and more Bear Crawls. To make up for time, we cruised back to the home base via Romny rd. doing Flutters and Merkins.

We closed the workout with an improved Q lead and a group of men ready to head into the new week with the goal of making a difference.

Over and Out – TB
