Miles for Merkins

Posted on November 30, 2018 | 3 minutes | 468 words |

YHC was excited about Gran Torino since it was announced. Not being a hi-tempo kinda guy, posting at this new hi-tempo workout presents a challenge, the kind of challenge YHC seeks. But leading the workout? That’s enough to make even a grizzled veteran a little anxious. The PAX are expecting a proper and thorough beatdown, so at 05:30 (by the QIC’s watch) we’re off. Warm-Up A quick pledge at the flag, and mosey safely across the street to the tennis park parking lot and circle up for side straddle hops, hillbillies, and the Disco Special, 10 burpees OYO.

It was a cold morning at the finest AO in NW Cary, on a Thursday morning. The mumblechatter abounded on slack about the impending Burpee beatdown and there were still two dozen PAX in attendance. Here is how it went down…. Disclaimer to two FNGs - Welcome Molson and Ratchet! At 5:45 sharp many PAXs were surprised as YHC started jogging.

Although it was the earliest AO on the schedule for the day, the forecast said it was not the coldest at the start. So we had that going for us. And a quick shout out to Hermes who was so concerned that I was lost as I drove past the parking lot to scout out a location, that he walked up the hill to the road to make sure I made it back safe and on-time.

Clubbing with a Lady

As I was perusing Slack yesterday, to my surprise, I stumbled upon a post from Pickles announcing that I was Q-ing Claymore on 11/27. HOLY CRAP! I completely forgot I signed up. The bad thing was I looked at the Claymore Q sign-up sheet before seeing the post and still did not notice that I signed to Q today. Thanks Pickles for the reminder. I’m so glad I saw it because it gave me a little time to think about what I wanted to do. [Read More]
