Crazy for CarPex

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , ,

YHC and Skidmark had the Q for Dante’s Peak as part of 2019’s South Wake/Carpex QSwap, so the obvious thing to do was give them a two for one and bring Crazy Time down to Carpex too. After confirming the clown car with Crosby the plans were set and Slack posts were made. No HCs were made from Carpex so YHC was worried, but thankfully they showed up.

We were warned that the park gates may not be open and that was confirmed to be the case. We found some Carpex Pax also looking for where to park – we landed at the subdivision past the park and we would use the mosey from there as part of our 1st mile.

Warm Up:

1 mile mosey to pull up bars, taking the long way
The Workout:

100 pull ups – it was nice being in Apex and having nice, real pull up bars

200 pickle pounders

300 homer to marge

Most pax did these in sets of 5/10/15 – Lipstick did some sets in 10/20/30, very impressive

1 mile mosey back to the cars
