Laughter, Grunts and Tears

HotCakes either catching his breath or getting distracted by a shinny object. After the beatdown from ThunderstRUCK on Wed, 4 PAX continued the bruising at Rolling Stone 4/5/19 with GoRuck Lucky 7 WOD #3. All this, to score for a sick patch: 1 mile-ish ruck north on Louis Stephens Dr and back-tracked to the soccer fields behind the elementary school. After determining that the ground flags were barely visible in the dark, a few soccer nets got moved around to serve as 25 meter markers. [Read More]

TTT is back!

It was a perfect morning to bring out the old tank-top, but it required digging it out of my pile of old t-shirts that I keep for some reason. Is it possible for t-shirts to have sentimental value? Smokey had the same idea, and looked quite stylish in his colorful apparel. We began with the F3 disclaimer and pledge. Then a short jog to the end of the park for: [Read More]

Crosswalk to Crosswalk

23 in total for YHC’s first crack at Lion’s Den. With some Google Satellite the night before a plan was made. There were some EC runners, some twins in the same shirts, some yoga pants, and a flag. It’s go time! 0530 - Disclaimer and Pledge Warmup lap threw off Franklin so much he quit and waited for the pax to circle the loop and come back. Then YHC went vanilla #shutinsignaturewarmup: GMs, HBs, Merkins, SSHs [Read More]

Perfect Timing

YHC rolled into Sovereign Grace Church to notice 2019 HOTY candidate Theisman doing ECP all by his lonesome. Although PAX were gathering in the parking lot, this called for a few ECP to make sure the ol’ QB was not lonely. At 0529 we joined the other 20 in the normal gathering spot for Tortoises. Disclaimer was disclaimed, and off we did not go. Warm Up Circle up, 10 burpees OYO to calm the chatter. [Read More]

Warm & beautiful morning in Cary’s Bond Park for Shaken not Stirred – great group of hard workin’ men too! It was my pleasure to lead such a group & I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Avoiding Potholes

It rained practically all night, and at 0500 the Steve indicated that Tank Top Tuesday was a real possibility. To that end, an even dozen of Carpex’ finest gathered at the flag at Salem Pond Park. Allegiance is pledged and off we go. Warm Up Mosey around the parking lot and then down the main drag to a street light that was actually on. We’ll forever refer to that as Mistake #1. [Read More]

What is something you have done in the last 1 to 5 years that has changed your life to the positive? The answer cannot be F3 or praying, unless that was the catalyst.” Since the Skipper did not bless us with his presence, we’ll mosey up to tennis court parking area: [Read More]
