Asystole led dragged YHC through a couple EC loops around the ToC buildings, which included pain stations for various merkins, pull-ups on a tree, step ups, box jumps, ab work, and forward/backward bear crawls and crab walks. About 20 minutes in I started to wonder if I would be able to complete my own main event workout. In the meantime, 4 more PAX showed up on this steamy mid-October afternoon. Riptide informed us that today was the latest day of the year it had ever hit 90 degrees. [Read More]

Twelve other PAX gathered at Tortoises on a crisp moonlit morning to see what YHC had in store for them. Good mumble chatter as the PAX gathered and Crimson performed some sort of contortionist stretches to warm up, complete with moans and groans.

Asystole, Yogi, disco duck, banjo 4 pax gathered around the flag, and the ceremonies commenced. To honor and glorify Disco Duck for stepping up and taking over site Q responsibilities for Rush-Hour, Banjo delivered the Wrecker Scepter and hoisted and mounted the reflective Wrecker to the top of the flag.

The downtown Cary heat was a little more intense than I was expecting when I arrived, so I considered calling an audible and retreating to the parking deck to prepare for the 9/11 Stair Climb. But my rhyming brothers were up to the challenge, so Three Cool Cats braved the heat. Warm Up Mosey up the sidewalk to the shade of one of the buildings. It was the last shade we’d see today.

25 PAX denied the fartsack Saturday morning to put in some hard work with their brothers. It was clear, low 70’s, and perfect #schweaty weather. YHC knew he was Q’ing Phoenix the entire week, but when M.Callahan was told of it Thursday evening, the plan needed to be changed. And since it was a surprise for YHC, it would be a surprise for all the PAX. YHC teased the PAX on twitter claiming that a world-class surprise would be revealed the last 15 minutes of the Saturday beatdown. [Read More]

A muggy Friday at the original Cary (before CarPex) AO. It was 77 with nearly 100% humidity. Site Q Large planted the flag and the men began to gather. Welcome Big Bird (my boy), Puck and Viking from 20 somethings from the ITB and as well as Kotter Billy. Great to have Billy back. Loom is also back in the rotation, too…which is awesome. 22 Pax. I decided to showcase a little different location this am…but heading off campus away from the dark trails of North Cary Park. [Read More]
