Posted at the Farmers Market in Carrboro, where even their Auto Parts store is fancy (see photo). Boot camp workout with tires. HIM bought me coffee.

Text from Maybelline to Weasel Shaker 4.1.24:
Hey bud, sorry for the delay. PAX for my Q at the pub 3/28 were:
Waterboy, Defib, Fannie Mae, Alma Mater, Radar, Sargento, JJ
Kenan Stadium AO. PAX who runs a private equity firm for a dating app site pulls into the North Entrance parking lot with his Tesla/Delorean. I knew I was in the right place.
He has a key to the football stadium, which was pretty cool. Then we ran all the lower level stairs with exercises in between sections, which was pretty not cool.

QIC: Right Swipe. PAX- T-Rex, Oozy, SPAM
Though we failed to break any world records, six PainLab records were broken will live in infamy – or until next year. Perhaps, the eight PAX this year were younger, stronger, smarter, or couldn’t count. Regardless, no real drama ensued

With 20 minutes to spare, the group split in two for a few rounds of team dodgeball & then royal rumble dodgeball. Hermie almost beat Bob the Builder. YHC’s rule that headshots were okay backfired.
Announcements and Prayer Requests: see Gashouse backblast 3.30.24
Seven ruckers, zero runners, and Scrat hit the Coconut Horse – Heatherloch course Sunday morning. Roscoe, Stroganoff, and Shortsale were absent, but we thought after the big Wolfpack win, they may have been too tired to join us. During announcements and prior to QSource, Roscoe stops by to let us know that Shortsale’s black lab went missing Saturday after the game.
Without hesitation, the group took off to Shortsale’s house and helped with the search. Unfortunately, no trace of Pookie was seen Sunday.
Monday morning at 10:18am, the following text was sent from Shortsale:
Announcements, Prayer Requests, No Q Source.
Diablo Sammich ventured to one of the Wonders of the World Gaston County this morning – the Burger King Rock of Union Rd. This local treasure has it’s own Facebook page and was featured on K104.7. Unfortunately for Balljoint and towing companies all around, the owners decided to surround the rock with poles. Outcries of “Free the Rock” have brought no justice.
YHC thought it would be a good plan to ruck from Pelicans to the Rock and 7 HIM joined in the fun. We should have stopped in for a breakfast biscuit, as we returned with four minutes to spare for some Mary.
12 PAX (2 runners and 10 boot campers) at Midoriyama for YHC’s inaugural Q at this AO . Mixing up fun and fitness, we kicked things off with warm-ups before scavenging blocks from the woods and relocating to the nearby outfield.
We split into two teams – the seasoned vets and the young bloods – for a round of kickball. But before the game got rolling, each team tackled a quick fitness test borrowed from the New Year’s Day convergence. First up, burpees, then onto an inning of kickball, followed by a round of merkins.
Team Respect, led by Purple Haze, Slaw, Chili, DeFib, and Broke, showed the young guns who’s boss, racking up nine runs to one by the 2nd inning. We kept the kickball and curls/big boys going until Team Respect claimed a victory blowout. Shoutout to Chili for toughing it out with a knee injury – hope it heals up soon.
Wrapping up back at basecamp, Montross and Sargento crushed their many many-mile run. Closed out with some prayers and announcements.

Tesla with another DR post at Cannonball in Lake Wylie Tuesday!
Downrange backblast:
PAX: Tesla
AO: Cannonball @ F3 Lake Wylie
Out of Range Post & Q from Clutch – Alma Mater & Radar attended as well
AO/Region: Crows Nest – Lake Wylie
It was good to be back at the Lake this morning!
We started off with a typical F3 warm up: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Moroccan Nigh Clubs, Windmills, Produce Pickers, and Hillbilly Walkers.
Then we mosied over to the picnic shelter for a few rounds of work that included: 10 Step ups each leg, 10 dips, 10 split squats each leg, and 10 incline merkins. We followed each set up with a lap around the basketball court. We did 3 sets.
After that everyone got excited for an “Ab Destroyer” Dora. We did 100 in and out on the swings, 150 big boys, and 200 LBC’s
That left us just enough time to run a set of hillside 11’s, with CDD’s at the bottom and jump squats at the top.
We gratefully made it back to COT to meet up with the runners!
Thanks Sprocket for the opportunity to lead!
