After the callout from Dumbo last week, I realized I hadn’t been to Paradise City in a bit. Well, YHC decided to throw down a “no secrets here” workout, where everyone looped the entire park more than several times. I think around 3.2-3.5 miles, depending on watches, etc. All Pax stepped up to take several turns in calling 10 count exercises at our stops along the way.
FNG’s: none.
Warm Up: Warm up lap around the entire parking/soccer field L loop. Stopped at bottom of ramp, Top of Stairs, Corner of Sportsmanship, Guardrail, top of hill by tennis courts, over by dumpsters, knee wall at top of ramp. Exercises along the way were: SSH, Imperial Walkers, Frankensteins, Irkins, Good Mornings, Sir Fazio’s, Shoulder Taps…all x10.
The Workout: Split in two groups, that ran opposite directions, all stopping at the same spots, to do a PAX choice of a 10 ct. exercise. Two rounds were Indian runs, two rounds were Mosey. We finished a last round together until reaching the basketball courts…literally as time expired.
Mary: built in
Announcements: Long Ass Run Sat. Feb 12th on the ATT…details from Skidmark.
T-Claps (Recognition): Good to see Tetanus back out at Paradise City! Thanks Dumbo for the push!
Prayer: Spoken/Unspoken. Thanks fellas for the opportunity to lead!
9 PAX to celebrate YHC’s birthday Q! Number 42 was on display for some of our time as well as a quick team effort to “lift guys up”. Emeril…my polish brother…was definitely the man going after it the most today as he took the Main Street Hill hard…every time today! Great work and thanks for joining me to celebrate life!
FNG’s: None, however YHC wasn’t sure because I can’t see in the dark and thought maybe…BossHog was someone else.
Warm Up: SSH x20 IC, Good Mornings x10 IC, Sir Fazio’s F/R x10 IC.
The Workout: A full lap around the soccer loop/ramp stopping for a total of 42 Burpees along the way as we made our way up to the Main St. flagpoles.
Next, we did 11’s. Merkins at the flags, Ground Pounder’s with rocks from the hole up by the street. Emeril was motivated today!
We did a full loop of Indian Runs, with stops along the way to do partner rows (2 PAX act as base, other PAX does inverted rows and rotate). We did this 4 times along the way. Each PAX did 5 rows per stop. We did a quick stop for a silent BTTW by the ticket booths.
We ran down to the guardrail to do 42 dips before heading for Mary.
Mary: Freddie Mercury, LBC’s, Homer to Marge, Pickle Pounders all either x15 or x20.
Announcements: CSAUPS in Carpex and here on October 16th.

Prayer: YHC took us out. Praise for Pikachu’s M starting a new job!
AO: Paradise City
Workout Date: 08/09/21
The boys at Paradise City are serious about their high tempo. When I started checking out greater Wake County Q sheets back in May, I found Paradise City’s Q sheet full for THE ENTIRE YEAR. Helpful brothers on Slack sent me Skidmark’s way, and after promising to deliver a high tempo workout (and making a small donation to Healing Transitions for which I am still on the hook), I was allowed to swap in for Katniss on 8/9.
Warm Up:
State the mission, check for FNGs(0), and give the disclaimer. PAX ask if my somewhat lengthy disclaimer is the Carpex disclaimer.
Mosey up the back road and around the tennis courts to the top of the Ting Ramp to warm up.
Side Straddle Hops x20 In Cadence (IC)
Good Mornings x5 IC
Sir Fazio Arm Circles forward x10 IC
Sir Fazio Arm Circles reverse x10 IC
Main Event:
1) Elevens on the Ting Ramp. WW1s at the top, Burpees at the bottom.
2) Rack Em Stack Em in the parking lot. Corners and exercises: (1) Merkins x10 (2) Squats x15 (3) American Hammerx x20 IC (4) Burpees x25. We ran out of time before anyone made it to the burpee corner.
3) Squats x10 On My Down (OMD) since Skidmark said we had 30 seconds left when we arrived back at start
Mary:
None.
COT:
9 PAX
Announcements and Prayers
Naked Moleskin:
Policeman pulled up as I was scouting the AO, but he ended up settling in to catch lead-footed citizens across from the electronic speed limit sign.
I wish we’d finished the Rack and Stack, but running out of time is much better than ending early.
Thank you for the opportunity, Skidmark!
This was my eighty-eighth #F3Q21 #2021Challenge Q (ninety-second overall). Next Q is Tuesday (tomorrow) at Claymore in Carpex.

QIC: Pigpen

Workout Date: 08/09/21
YHC is seriously trying to come back from a variety of injuries that have plagued my body the last 8 weeks or so and…I’m pretty far back on BRR training, so when I Q, the PAX are along the ride with me to make these last 7 weeks count in my training for BRR. No better way to do that than hit the ramp at Ting for some repeats. In addition, YHC is celebrating 19 years of marriage to my wonderful wife today. 16 PAX came to celebrate the value of hard work to strengthen their bodies today on the grounds of Paradise City. Message for the day as well…it takes hard work to build a strong marriage as well. Don’t forget to put the work in with your M’s…and don’t mentally/emotionally fartsack when it counts!
FNG’s: None
Warm Up: A mosey down the long end of the main lot followed by Windmills x 10 IC, Frankensteins x10 IC, and Imperial Walkers x 10 IC. Another mosey down to the other end for Sir Fazio’s x 10 IC F/R and Hillbillies x 10 IC.
The Workout: Counted off by 3’s. 3 Indian Run lines would run the ramp/tennis court loop until 19 “indians” got to the front of the line. All groups stopped generally at the same spot when finished. We proceeded to do 19 Prisoner Squats and 19 Shoulder Taps IC. Same Indian Run lines back the other way, again, waiting to get 19 “indians” to the front of the line before stopping back by the cars. Comments were made to quit the workout there and go grab coffee. We did 19 SSH IC and 19 Mountain Climbers IC before moseying back to the bottom of the ramp.
We would run the ramp for the remainder of time. At the bottom, it would be Merkins starting at 1. At the top, it would be Step-Ups on the wall starting at 2. Going up the ramp, PAX were supposed to go between 80-100%, and a mosey back down the ramp. We went all the way to 19…stacking up odd numbers at the bottom, and even numbers at the top. Those finishing first, did what we do, they found a 6 and finished out with them. With only 4 minutes to go, YHC asked about mileage. God forbid, we don’t get our 3 miles. 2 of 3 PAX shared over 3 mile readings (other idea was 4 mins. of Indian runs), so we headed back for Mary.
Mary: 19 WW2’s and some were pissed that I finished 30 seconds early.
Announcements: Q Swap with Carpex begins next week. They come to us for a featured guest workout at 1 site each day (2 on Wednesday).
T-Claps (Recognition): Thanks to Pikachu, 187, Laettner, and Full House…all faster than me…for help getting me some low times for me on EC.
Prayer: Two kids in our community, battling illness. Our marriages and the strength, patience, and passion to nurture them. It was really nice to be at the helm again today…thanks for being there fellas!
