Joined the South Wake crew for a run from Ting Park. Explored some new and nearly finished greenways.

YHC had a hard time keeping the PAX above an 8 min pace and on route. But the Lochmere route was completed successfully. Great to have such a large crowd on a cool morning.

Hills were the main objective. We ran them forward, we ran them backward. Foxholes, Aussie Snow Angles, and Burpees administered in between. Finished with the World’s Greatest Wheelbarrow race . Then @Dowry dropped the hottest new excercise of 2025 you MUST request at your next Mary.

for several PAX friends and family members starting off the New Year with major surgeries. Praises we are able to get up and do this today.

MIAGD!

Weather was cold, coffee was hot. 5 PAX ran 3ish, picked up Oofda and Dowry for a bit, and then another 3ish. Early morning Huberman sunlight was enjoyed along with the most personal, Greek mythology level mubblechatter in the region’s history.

10 campers and 3 runners, with some swwingers for coffeeteria.

Started with a quick mosey to the RLC parking lot for a warmup that prompted the discussion of whether it’s Thai Fighters or TIE Fighters, and if Oofda’s earthly or galactic travels could confirm either way. Later at coffeeteria, it was also discussed whether warmups should occur near the flag so late pax can still catch the group but this was vetoed in a region with, to quote, an embarrassment of riches (so you have less of an excuse to be late from having to drive forever to get there).

Thang 1 – partner up for catch me if you can around the lake, 10 merkins when caught. Darker than anticipated, rootier than recalled so we moved on after that.

Thang 2 – partner ab DORA across the bridge on KF. 100 freddies, 200 half sit-ups, 300 penguins.

Thang 3 – greenway run back and finish up the Dora in the parking lot.

COT

– DDD coming up next month; you can consider bingeing on holiday sweets as training for that, right?
– Preview of Snoop Dog’s Easter footwear modeled by Badda, Chipper, and HGTV.
– New Year opportunities and challenges abound; prayers for pax dealing accordingly with them

Thanks for the opportunity to lead, good to see everyone and meet some new pax!

Yearly mileage goals were achieved, lamented, and projected for futures this morning as the PAX traveled the standard original reverse Just Dough It route. We have been blessed with wonderful weather the past few days to close out the year and there’s still time to get more miles before 2025.

2pm Umstead figure 8 per Full House.

6 bootcampers and 3 run clubbers. After pledging allegiance to the flag, which was present, we set out on our way to train for the Uwharrie Mountain Run, which is only 5 weeks away. In order to do that, we got some trail work in at Hemlock Bluffs, stopping every so often for some of my favorite leg-strengthening exercises including Al Gore jump squats, Stifler’s Mom, monkey humpers, and more. We managed to get all the way around the big loop in Hemlock Bluffs without getting lost. Saw a few deer and heard some frightening noises along the way.

At one point we partnered up and talked about how well we executed our 2024 goals, and what we are looking to accomplish in 2025. While the run clubbers made it to COT on time, the bootcampers were a few minutes late. But that made the grapes taste that much sweeter and the coffee that much more satisfying. Rave reviews are already pouring in for the resurgence of Slippery When Wet, The Place Where Legends Are Made. Congrats to Badda on hitting his mileage goal for the year today (1,500!). Let’s be sure to check in with each other throughout the year to see how we are doing with our 2025 goals. MIAGD and MIAGY.

Nearly dropped the ball on the backblast (thanks @Kiffin) but the route and the fellowship did not disappoint. We cut through a yard, trail ran for 30 seconds and found a cool gravel greenway that ended with a tunnel for little people on Cary Parkway. Nearly 100% coffeteria participation.

MIAGD and have a Merry Christmas

2024 Tour de Lightmere is in the books. Record 44 pax showed for this year’s premier SCary event despite the 28 degree temperatures. In the gloom glow ropes were passed out on the cookie table, brief safety instructions and then we were off.

First stop in a cul de sac was all about warmups featuring stealth burpees and the required Scary stretch. Waved goodbye to the house and then safely crossed Lochmere drive to run to Windy Rush Lane. Gathering like the Hoos ’round the leaf pile we held for the six, did a few more exercises culminating in Monkey Humpers in front of @hgtv’s house. Then on to Candy Cane house where the traffic suddenly picked up.

Down to the dock where the featured exercise was @kirkland leading us in 100s, a stroll down Lochmere drive, Earkins, Dirkins, Dips…cross the road, through the disc golf course culminating in the crazy house. The back to the flag for COT. Around this time @Kitty Litter pointed out that mileage topped 2.0 miles — a bit more than expected, but the pax made it through.

Robust COT with 10 FNGs. Six took names and four wisely remained anonymous so that they can’t be tracked by the government spies among us. The fires felt mighty nice.

Thanks to @Shipyard and @ Water Wings for fire duties and to all who helped make this a lot of fun for all. Ten FNGs at YHC’s workout means that with multiplier effects, means that @Fruit Loop has rocketed into first place for the 2024 Scaryiest Man contest. I humbly accept the honor. Who knew that Tour de Lightmere was the sleeper event to achieve a massive victory from behind?
