Nigel Tufnel made this proud declaration when displaying his unique amplifier volume knob in the movie “This Is Spinal Tap.” But YHC didn’t share the same enthusiasm when, upon losing Wonderland to injury mid-workout, our PAX count dropped to a number one less than our original twelve. The PAX forged on without its fallen brother, bruised but not broken. And I can assure you, the volume of an inspired PAX was cranked up to the max. Here’s how it all went down.
WARM-UP / COP:
YHC introduced the “PAX Boomerang”: 3 PAX are called upon during the warm-up to depart the circle at the amphitheatre lawn in a full sprint around the park carousel & return, at which time 3 more PAX are called upon (& so on, until all PAX complete a carousel lap)
