THE THANG:
PAX divided into teams of three, grouped by similar ability — or at least by a shared willingness to push hard and make questionable decisions together.
Eight exercise stations, each with varying point values, were spread around the Rolesville Main Street Park area. Each team received a course map, station instructions, and a hard return time of 7:55. The route was entirely up to each team.
The objective was simple: complete as many stations as possible, with the primary goal of clearing all eight at least once. Teams could only double up on station points after completing the full course. Late arrivals were penalized: -5 points after 7:55 and -10 points after 7:58.
The competition came down to the wire, with two teams tied at 61 points. After a self-reported penalty for not completing Station D correctly, Team Dowry, Boyz 2 Men, and Izzuzu were declared the winners.
Strong work across the board. Great effort, great teamwork, and a solid push by every PAX. Welcome RangerRick (Joshua Scheurich)
