Here at HQ HQ we have a very likable fellow typically manning the building’s front desk in the mornings named Zack, and every Friday he greets every person with a sunny “Happy Friday!”
I like to think this is why he’s so cheerful.
Happy Friday!

We came. We saw. We pedaled 73 miles!
March 1st, 2010 by Chris Strong
Team HQ showed up in full-force on Saturday for Cincinnati’s first annual Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Race to Anyplace. Red Bulls in hand for energy, iPods cranked for race time tuneage and Team HQ shirts for speed, we didn’t miss a beat. The event took place downtown at the Chemed Center and boy did it have a great turn-out. Twenty-six teams showed up to pedal as hard as they could for 6 hours to help support blood cancer research, and our eleven-person team was proud to be one of them.
Should anyone ever tell you that spinning is easy, don’t listen to them. We pedaled like we had never pedaled before (the speed one of our teammates generated made me severely question the bikes ability to handle our skills) and after all was said and done, Team HQ racked up 73 miles for the day!
Though we may have went home a little sore and tired, we felt extremely happy and lucky to have gotten the chance to be a part of the event and to help raise funds and general awareness for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society here in Cincinnati. It was a great time and we met some wonderful people (and a huge dog who decided to join in on the race day fun) throughout the course of the day.
As sore as we all are, we can’t wait to be a part of the event again next year. We have our eyes set on the elusive 100 miles marker next!

HyperQuake is Racing to Anyplace!
February 21st, 2010 by Chris Strong
Saturday 2/27/10, marks the 1st Annual ‘Race to Anyplace’ in Cincinnati, and HyperQuake is racing to it…or rather, in it.
11 determined souls from here in HyperQuake-Ville have volunteered to step up to the challenge to help the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society kick off the event for the first time in Cincinnati. The team will be participating in a 6 hour (Yep, you read that right!) relay-style Spinning event, peddling as hard as they can for 15 minutes at a time before switching riders.
The HQ team shirt
The event has been taking place in other cities across the country for sometime and now it’s Cincinnati’s chance to help the LLS in its fight against cancer. If you want to find out more information about the event, visit the events site here.
If you have directions on how to get to Anyplace (i.e. Spinning tips for us newbies), let us know, I for one can’t find it in the GPS and don’t want to get lost en route. I’m actually writing this blog post while I’m training, so back to that I go. Until then, perhaps we’ll see you in Anyplace.
