Thankfully traffic was light (imagine that) and YHC arrived in time to give the one minute warning. No FNGs, give a disclaimer-ish and we’re off.. Warm-up Mosey 3/4 of the way around the soccer field track to the parking lot SSH, Merkins, Runners Stretch, Merkins, Imperial Walkers The Thang - Tour de Apex [Read More]

16 PAX fought off the post-Murph fartsack at Full Metal Jacket this morning, greeted by warm air and a beautiful sunrise. YHC pulled into the lot right at 0529 and promptly gave the “one minute” warning. My mind swam as I tried to figure out what to do next. You see, the night before, I learned I was Q-ing via slack. This isn’t the first time this has happened (and certainly won’t be the last), but as I looked around the PAX, I noticed a few unfamiliar faces and I didn’t want to disappoint. [Read More]

It sure felt like that on the trek to Apex for this morning’s romp. I forget the disclaimer and pledge.

Warm-Up Mosey out of the park and safely across Cary Parkway to the office park and circle up for imperial walkers, Sir Fazios forward and reverse.

Close out the warm-up with good mornings and criticism of my cadence. [Read More]
