I have to admit, if I wasn’t Q’ing today I am not sure I would have made it out of the fartsack. I had originally planned to Q Dante’s Peak this week but Parker requested the spot for his birthday celebration so I picked up FC instead. I wasn’t too thrilled with my decision this morning while driving to the finest AO in NW Cary today in the rain. It is a great spot with a solid group of regulars so definitely worth the trip.

Q What You Hate

This Christmas Eve morning beatdown and 2ndF that followed was one of the most enjoyable mornings YHC has had over the past (almost) 4 years! Must be the advent season! After a shoutout by Disco Duck on Slack, YHC went to work planning this beatdown (circa 1930 the night before). 23 Pax in all. Lots came stampeding in from the EC run. YHC had no gloves (because YHC was planning to fartsack being out in Durham at his father in law’s for Christmas) [Read More]

The Making of A Champion

Posted on December 19, 2018 | 3 minutes | 633 words |

The idea for this workout just fell into my lap. On Tuesday, there was some debate on Slack about what it takes to be a champion. Some would posit that showing up and staying makes you a champion. YHC would posit that deciding to get up at butt crack of dawn to attend a workout and sticking around is laudable, but is just a prerequisite to becoming a champion. Since YHC is the QIC, YHC gets to decide what constitutes a champion. [Read More]

High Tempo Hangover

I wasn’t sure what kind of attendance to expect at a high tempo 0530 workout the morning after our Carpex Christmas party. With three Gran Torino site Qs, I figured that means there should be at least four of us. Turns out an impressive group of 15 only slightly subdued PAX showed up for their post-party beat down and my first GT Q. Here’s what we did: Warm-Up Jog to back entrance of school and circle up 20 SSH, IC 20 Imperial Walkers, IC 25 Merkins 20 Mountain Climbers, IC 15 Windmills, IC Resume jog to Preston Village circle Thang 1 [Read More]

Changing of the Guard

Due to technical issues, there is not a way to have the QIC list both Beaker and YHC as the QIC but he was in the mix and deserves the glory. Warm-up Beaker led all the PAX from the flag over to the other lower parking lot and back again to get the legs moving. Once we circled back up we enjoyed a few other treats: SSH x 20 Windmills x 10 Slow Count Merkins x 10 Good Mornings x 10 Thang 1 [Read More]
