VSF planted for PAX of 18 with a strong representation in the EC crew. Perfect clear skies out at #NCMA for a cool but comfortable morning. PAX stayed tight as we moved in the dark and into light, sunrise over the tree line was particularly nice this Saturday……the set synched up with the sun’s ascent perfectly.

-Big time representation from the Cary/Apex crowd, think we had 15 for EC….pretty sure that’s a high for a 90 minute session not part of Mud Run training. #respect category was well represented, welcome Yo Adrian from F3Gastonia….with his officiating schedule I think we’ll see a decent amount of him during basketball season. Postfontaine, where are you?

-YHC & Johnny Utah started Whiplash 9/14/2014 as an early morning alternative on Saturday’s at the most scenic AO in Raleigh. When JU moved west Vector Victor stepped in as co-Q, well we’ve had quite a while so a change is due…….starting next month we’ll have new site Qs so this set was my last as site Q of Whiplash. Great location and a fantastic core group of followers, if you haven’t Q’d this AO you are missing out as the Saturday mornings out there are excellent.
-Encourage a newer PAX member to Q a workout, this time of year we have lots of openings.
-Prayers for ManCrush’s family as well as Chinese Downhill’s
