Alternating 8 burpees, 8 partner merkins when you see your partner. [Read More]

This was YHC’s first time out Qing Gran Torino. After studying the mess out of Google Maps the plan was set. YHC drove to up a few minutes before the normal 10min early mark YHC tries to hit, checked out the parking lot and saw the gates needed to get to where we were going today were locked soooo, change of plans! Warm Up Run the pickle? Loop? Bus circle? Do we have a name for it yet? [Read More]

15 HIMs joined me for my VQ on a cold, dark morning at the finest AO on a Thursday morning in NW Cary. After months of PAX asking if I owned a fruit stand, if my last name was Darling or if I accidentally forgot my F3 name (and received a girl’s name), today I shared the origins of Clementine, as well as a brief history on the Legend of 44 at Syracuse University (go Orange!

It was cold. The morning started at 0500 for an EC run by 3 of the aforementioned best. When YHC showed up at 0505 for EC pull-ups, they were long gone, and it was just me and Bob Seger for pull-ups and Merkins. Dumpster Fire showed up just in time for the two of us to get some quality 2nd F time in and go for a ½ mile warm-up run. [Read More]

All the lamp-posts

For some PAX, variety is the spice of life. They head out on grand adventures of Q swapping and comb the exicon for new and utterly ridiculous things to do to the human body. However, some of us prefer reliable and routine - like FOD with Beaker at the helm. It is kind of like an old pair of blue jeans. Simple. You know the pair…it has your wallet imprinted in the back right pocket and the threads are worn down where you knife goes in. [Read More]

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.
