Crossing the Busy Road Twice

YHC always try and start his BB listing the number of Pax. It seems the past few Qs that’s been a feat of its own. We had 21 when we left the flag. We had 20 when we got back and we had 21 again when we got to our cars. Let the Q explain (and tell ya what we did!) 0530: Intro and Disclaimer (there was an applause of sorts even. [Read More]

Waterbugs

A big downpour in downtown Cary was not enough to keep five waterbugs away from Rush Hour. Warm-Up Brisk walk over to the far side of the pocket park for imperial walkers, Sir Fazios, mountain climbers, merkins, squats and cotton pickers. The Thang Brisk walk to the middle of the pocket park, then bear crawl to the side with the wall for irkins, ALRSUs, dips, ALRSUs and derkins. Bear crawl back to the middle for LBCs, American hammers, Homer-to-Marge, low slow flutters and dying cock-a-roaches. [Read More]

Stop #3 on The Pain Stick Express

So when Build-A-Bear messaged me on Monday to “ask” me to incorporate the pain sticks into my Q on Wednesday, of course I said yes. You’ve seen him right? So with my original workout put back on the shelf for another day, I started drawing up some new plans. Big group this morning of Insomniacs, Vesperers and SNSers. The boot campers broke off and headed toward the community center to find the afore mentioned pain sticks waiting for them. [Read More]

I'm Sorry You Feel That Way

94 degrees at game time. True HIMs battle through, and so after pledging allegiance 9 math-letes braved the streets of downtown Cary for a number-themed extravaganza. Mosey to the circle for… Warmup SSHs, Sir Fazio, Cotton Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Plank Jacks, Merkins on my down AND up, and a few burpees cause I hear it’s a good stretch. Thang 1 Double Nickel down the street. Alternating 5 Monkey Humpers at one light pole, 5 burpees at the next. [Read More]

Traffic Diversion at Rush Hour

Seeing a rare Q-spot opening for Rush Hour, YHC grabbed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and immediately started preparing for little something different for the good folks of DTC. Of course, with only a handful of Rush Hour experiences under my belt, “something different” might not have been all that different but I was going to try! But first… Tiberius needs a ride. I’m in. A text message (3:31PM), a Slack message (4:06PM) and a phone call (4:12PM) later I’m really confirmed. [Read More]

Vanilla String of Pearls 7/13/18

YHC is nearing the mid-point of the July Tour De Carpex and saw a Q opening back where it all began at The Premier North Cary Friday AO. After staying up all night with the Boys at Flacco’s 2nd F, 24 got up with the Men to workout. Chhanticleer and Largemouth got in a 4.something EC run (note that both were not seen at Flacco’s the night before). I’m confident Term Paper would have been on time, but that HIM stepped up to pick up Capt.
