YHC became Texas Ranger on February 18, 2017 at Bond Park in Cary. Thanks to Ollie for an awesome F3 name, more cool than what I deserve. So, anniversary Q, here’s how it went: Pre warm-up: YHC announced his anniversary Q and invited the PAX to stick around after COT for a toast to the HIM of Carpex, with a little Powerade, water, and um, Scotch (The Glenlivet, my favorite).

It was a scorching 57 degrees this morning, perfectly timed for Tank Top Thursday. YHC was the only participant, but appreciated Parker’s good intentions this morning, only to realize that he doesn’t own one. I think he can fix that with some scissors by next week… 11 PAX ready to go, no FNGs, and we’re off. Warm up jog around the track to the far parking lot, wave hello to FiA as we pass. [Read More]

Dow Jones wasn’t the only one that had a rough week. YHC was again bit by some sort of bug and two colleagues went down with the flu. So what better way to cap off the week than rising from the ashes at Phoenix? 20 PAX agreed and all 21 of us hit the gloom. Though rain threatened, we stayed mostly dry. A few hearty PAX ran into the AO from various destinations, working to get in some extra miles leading up to various events this Spring. [Read More]

51 is the Magic Number

There’s an ongoing Slack-o-sphere “discussion” over the #1 AO in all of Carpex. I’ll admit, YHC has stirred the pot just a bit over this one. The primary goal for the February 9, 2018 edition of Dante’s Peak was to show the glorious versatility and overall excellence of what I consider to be THE top destination for PAX of Carpex. So let’s get on with it. Solid group of HIMs (HIDAs? [Read More]

YHC was originally planning a vanilla workout this morning, but last night WKRP claimed vanilla for himself and Bradford’s Ordinary, so I had to come up with something more flavorful. Here’s what we ended up with. Warm-Up Mosey over to the parking lot between the two fields, uh-oh our FiA sisters are already there, let’s head over to the other end to give them some space. Circle up for side straddle hops x 19 because it’s my 2.

Bears and Balls

Coming off a week+ of fartsacking due to sickness YHC was still quick on the draw to pick up the Q hand off from Disco Duck! After Slacking out a message trying to rally some HCs for this morning (and only receiving 2) YHC knew numbers would be somewhat small. 9 Pax made it out for a nice cool-crisp-shorts-wearing-36-degree morning in DTA. With the low hum of the idle train (#ApexSignatureMove) and Grease with two freshly tied shoes (#SignatureMove) we were off into the gloom!

Take My Breath Away

You know what makes a Q feel good? When that special someone says at the end of the workout, “That might have been the hardest workout I’ve ever done.” It really takes your breath away. Thanks Tubeless. 12 PAX gathered in the “snow"crest parking lot of Salem Park, whose students get to enjoy quite possibly the most ridiculous two hour delay ever, awaiting this so called “Lap of Pain” YHC promised.

The Pax Will Not Be Silenced

16 loudmouths gathered at the gates of Apex Skate Park in hopes that their choice of Bounty Hunters (aka the AO not Q’d by Hi-Liter) would provide some welcome relief. Of course, YHC, being a man of the people, took requests. “Not too much running, no burpees, and few Merkins, if you don’t mind McCants.” Really? Well, there you have it. Warmup: High tempo lap around the outside of the soccer field, Freddy Mercury’s until the six shows up, SSH, Lil Man JJ, and, oh, wait, Burt wants to storm the circle since his Hokies won a home game?
