hi-liter

Buenos Dias, Hermanos. When it was announced that Liverpool and Water Wings would share their Chimbote, Peru (or is it Chipotle…) story with the Pax at a bread braking and the Q sheet was WIDE FREAKING OPEN for that day, YHC had to jump on it. Knowing we’d have a squad on hand, I was extra excited (hard to believe I know) for this one. With a resounding Yooooooooooooo at 0544, we got ready to roll out. [Read More]

Great morning with a high impact crew at Phoenix this fine Carpex Saturday. We covered quite a bit of the park & had some good times! EC runners were cruising around (sorry Texas Ranger had to scoot out) & I got to chat on the move with our newly acquired PAX from Churham – Flenderson. We all hope this trade plays out well over time & we won’t miss the cow & two goats we gave up for him.

A lovely, lovely day at Gran Torino. Perfect weather, and an awesome pax! What do I have planned for today? Nothing special. A very simple, yet effective high tempo workout.

• When: March 5th, 2019 • QIC: Earhart • The PAX: Hi-Liter, Press-On, Skipper (Ruck) YHC Earhart Another nice afternoon, albeit a little more chilly than last Tuesday’s, Hi-Liter beatdown. 3 HIM gather under the flags for an afternoon of traveling through downtown Cary. After the quick disclaimer and the pledge, we head out, around the back of the complex and to the grassy fields for: Warm Up Good evenings (a three count down, three count up) [Read More]

The idea was to run a loop and on said loop catch the Maynard crew as they were hitting the Chatam and Maynard intersection, specifically catch the VQ Maynard running Liverpool. Nine set out, two a little quicker than the rest (respect to Large and Hi-Liter). The route was all the way down High House, right on Chatam, right on Maynard and a left on High House to get home.

With the Tobacco Road Half and Full Marathon approaching, the pax joined for what has quickly become an annual tradition… well at least for this second year in-a-row… a long ATT run followed by top-notch fellowship in the parking lot centered around the all-time champion of breakfast meats, BACON. Distances varied between 5-16 (based on YHC’s count), with the majority of pax locking in on that 10-mile distance. Dang near purrfect with the race coming up in 10 days. [Read More]

"The weirdest workout I have been to so far" - Biner Today 15 HIM's took their DRP and posted at Gran Torino.  YHC showed up hearing grumbles about "will he even show" despite being 5 minutes early.  This is Carpex after all, we pre-funk every workout unless you are doing EC. Starting off the workout with 3 minutes to reinstate the mission, do the pledge of allegiance, and making sure disclaimers were said, it was obvious they PAX were doubting the beatdown would live up to the High Tempo workout they showed up for.
