THE PAX
Crawfish, Third Person, Porcelein, The Jeweler, Floppy Disk, Calfkiller, New Mexico (Visitor from F3 Raleigh), CCR (YHC)
YHC got a wild hare and decided to make the trek up north of Hogan Road to visit the boys at Titan this morning. Q calendar was clear, so decided to sign up to ensure my HC. Floppy D and Calfkiller completed the clown car and came along despite the looming threat of winter up north.
5:30am sharp we went on a brisk mosey in search of the BLACK MIATA. After hearing Crawfish say that they almost got in a fight with him the last time they ventured into his garage, i decided to circle up for WOR just outside the garage to draw him out. No dice.
WOR (all IC)
SSH x 20
GM x 10
WMH x 10
Slow and Low Merkins x 10
HOPKICKS! x 10 (Most of Titan PAX’s first time aka VH)
Mosey back toward the Parthenon with a quick stop for an homage to my boy Aunt Bea. Modified barnyard shuffle with merkins and jump squats x3 at either end. We did 25 for a total of 75 merks and 75 jump squats. Blood is now flowing. Time for
THE THANG
At the bottom of the parkway of pain, we started a set of 13s…because 11s just don’t cut it anymore. Turkish getups at the bottom and mountain merkins at the very top. It was a LONG way up there. 208 yards to be exact. To make it better, we added a three-burpee speed bump every time we crossed over pavement (three speed bumps). The way up was long, the way down was much better as we coasted easily downhill with the glorious parthenon centered as our backdrop. Somewhere along with way we modified to ensure completion. This may be worth trying again with no barnyard shuffle to see if anyone can finish. As PAX completed, we performed AMRAP WWI situps as we waited for the 6. Floppy and Jeweler were standouts (shocker).
All in. Time for a 200 yard AYG from the bottom to the top. Three burpees on top, mosey together to each speed bump for 3x burpees untill we reach the bottom. Circle up for a quick Mary. Flutter kix x40 IC. Low plank to close it out.

MOLESKINE
It was really great breaking out of the routine to get up to Titan. I highly recommend it for those that have never been…or been awhile. Great AO and even better dudes that we rarely get to see. Glad to have New Mexico from F3 Raleigh (South Wake) join us….he showed up just in time for the Thang, but made up for it.
Until Next Time,
CCR
