Posted on August 21, 2019 | 1 minutes | 121 words |

The PAX at Wolverine celebrated the 224th day of the Gregorian calendar on August 12, 2019. After a quick disclaimer and pledge, we moseyed across Davis Drive and to the middle school parking lot. Several warm-up exercises were completed, including a set of Ernie Davis Heismans (we missed you, Biner). To celebrate the 224th day of 2019, the group enjoyed a Gregorian merkin mile – 4 laps around the track, with 4 sets of 22 merkins at the conclusion of each lap. [Read More]

In the ever brightening gloom as we giddy up toward summer, 15 brave and intrepid men made their way to an outpost in the northernmost western AO in Cary, for an early morning beatdown by Carpex legend Petsounds. Petsounds has other ideas and was thousands of miles away in sunny CA whilst all this was going on, so instead YHC stepped in as a makeweight Q whilst Petsounds googleplexed in Palo Alto….

With little planning put into it, YHC was still feeling some pressure this morning headed to Wolverine, largely because Red Baron was in town and waiting for me at the front door for our 0515 exit. Needless-to-say, we left on time. 22 are circled up (a bunch of Utes rolled out of the Meatloaf mobile) for Wolverine and with that we we took off… out of the perfectly good (albeit dark) park.

18 HIMs met this morning at the gloomiest AO in Cary, except that clear sky and nearly full moon made it relatively bright. I was dismayed to learn that several pax showed up for the Riptide beatdown not realizing I picked up the Q instead. I don’t blame them, hell I was trying to do the same thing! One FNG this morning courtesy of Honeycomb, so the full, drawn-out briefing was in order. [Read More]

Always good to be at Flying Circus. West Cary’s Finest Thursday Morning AO Near Two Schools and a Fire Station (or something like that.) All the regulars were there, I guess. I don’t really know. I’ve only been here like 4 times. We greeted Globe Trotter visiting from Austin, made fun of Nature Boy’s Hi-Liter-inspired ear muffs, a version of the disclaimer was given and we circled up. **Warm Up [Read More]
