Eighteen Pax celebrated NE Wake’s 3rd Annual “Pi Day” with YHQ at the helm. Warmarama initiated with Side Straddle Hop, Good Mornings, Windmills, Mountain Climbers and Standard Merkins followed by a little high stepping around the soccer fields. At the Upper Field, a perfect circle with 22 cones was set including 7 almost evenly spaced coupons. The Pax were given the simple instruction to travel as directed for two full rounds of Elevens (Merkins and Outlaws followed by Round the World Lunges In Cadence and Bobby Hurleys). When “landing” at a cone occupied by a Coupon, the Pax executed a One-Seventh of a Seven (Swings and Goblet Squats) terminating at the opposite coupon. This routine continued until (2×11)/7 (or 3.14) was completed. Travel calls were mixed at YHQ’s discretion. As expected, this chaotic routine was a total goat rodeo with plenty of mumblechatter and few finishers in the allotted time.
The Pax returned the cones and coupons to the Goat-Mobile and retrieved a mystery bag to be unveiled at the COT parking lot. From chill cut position, each HIM turned the dial of fate in an invigorating game of “Pie Face.” Calls to the first 13 digits of Pi were enjoyed by all.
