Given the significance of the concept of a Sad Clown in the F3 universe, one could think the name Flying Circus to be a bit, well, curious. Given the madness that went down at this AO on Thursday, August 23, 2018, I think the name fits. 18 HIM pledged their allegiance to the flag, and then moseyed to the basketball courts. Warm Up Good Mornings, nice and slow 2 x FNGs show up 10 Burpees OYO Hill Billies Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson arms: Circles front and backwards like Sir Fazio, except one arm at a time. [Read More]

There weren’t Fire-ant Bombs, but there were fire-ants and there were B.O.M.B.S. 14 of the finest Carpex PAX gathered in the Wolverine gloom for a beatdown. Build-a-Bear, Biner, and PBX enjoyed a three-mile EC from Crema at least until they arrived on site and encountered the fire-ants. As 5:30 approached, PBX was still in battle with the fireants, three of our far west Cary PAX arrived kind of on time, and no FNGs were present. [Read More]

21 Pax dodged the rain and puddles to post at Field of Dreams this morning. YHC used to be a FOD regular. YHC even started the FOD Twitter handle, that’s how tight they were! Then more sites joined Tuesdays… Then a kitchen remodel relocated the family to far east borders of Cary… And just like that YHC’s regularity vanished… Franklin even sent his thugs, Nature Boy and Badlands to YHC’s house to repo his #TeamFOD shirt!

AO: Phoenix August 18, 2018 Keeping with the mid-August pain pticks theme, and not to be outdone by Bluewater’s Death by Dora mini-Murph at Slippery When Wet yesterday, YHC and Build-a-Bear dutifully planted a minefield of concrete and PVC for a lovely morning’s fun. Site Q Texas Ranger led a pack of 4 HIM’s for the EC run (+ Ollie, Sosa & Chipper - who had a rare Saturday M-pass to join us).

YHC just Q’d Wolverine a couple weeks ago and wouldn’t normally pick it up again so quickly, but another PAX needed a favor, and I’m always one to help! It’s getting close to BRR time, and hills are always welcome, right? (RIGHT?!) A plan began to formulate….. 15 Pax met in the gloomiest of Carpex AO’s for a relatively cool, yet predictably humid morning. Perhaps that MONSTER thunderstorm that rolled through at 12:30am had something to do with it….

What a day, what a day! YHC grabbed the Q spot at DP and longing awaited the chance to head west for all 3 F’s with the Apex pax. With YHC’s alarm set for 0430, here goes. Arrive early for EC pull-ups with GTL, Theismann, Rooney and Frisco. Aeorsmith was there as well and Steve Tyler rocked us during our sets. Great work men.
