Traveled down to South Wake for the newly minted Respect & Honor Q from Bobby Dall (50th) and Mad Dog (60th).
Happy birthday gents! Great time meeting new PAX.

17 for bootcamp + 2 runners for 6 mikes. EC variety of rucking and running.

Beautiful day for some pain-sticks.

We squatted, pressed, cheese grated, LBC’d, pickled and great mumble chatter this morning. Main thang was Dora’s painful cousin Debra the Brat.

Put away our stick with 5 minutes to finish and boy did we finish strong.

Grateful for this group. A lot happening this fall. Check slack for details. 1st, 2nd, & 3rd.

Appreciate the opportunity to lead. MIAGD!

We can’t do life alone, and yet we try.

8 PAX for a bootcamp & 3 for RC.
TGIF! Mosey to warm up to thang 1.
Four Corners of Mary to start us off:
– low slow flutters
– dying
– LBCs
Thang 2: Tic-Tac-Toe 3 in a row team battle.
1’s vs. 2’s.
One end of the lot had our board and the only way to pass off your chalk to your teammate was to knock out merkins, squats, LBCs X 5/each. (Person must also draw the line through)
X’s vs. O’s. Losers gets burpees, winners get merkins. 2 exhilarating games played with questionable tactics. Then team Indian runs back to the flag battling each other with the classic , , . A lot of people losing on paper.

Prayers and praises. Safety for people stuck in flood zones around the state and weather. Safe travels to our guy, Joe Smith, as he goes to smuggle hardware into Prague.

MIAGD. See you tomorrow.

We stretched.
We pickled.
We conquered Mount Inferno.
We planked.

It was like Mount Doom mixed with Free Solo.

We listened to the same angry song on repeat for 45 minutes.

Great workout, guys!

Problematic (or almost problematic?) day at the premier Tuesday boot camp actually located in south cary!

Took the long way over to the Lowe’s foods parking lot for warmups. Then headed over to the Ortho parking lot for three rounds of four corners. First round was 9 diamond merkins at each corner, second round was 24 jump squats and then third round was 83s.

Then we headed towards the park with an illegal road crossing in front of Cary’s finest (no trespassing tho!) and then a pause to monkey hump the JDI broz (of which there were many!) before heading to the shelter for 41 dips, 41 I/urkins, and a 41 second derkin hold.

Back to the flag for popcorn mary and COT right before the dome gave out. Coffee at the shelter!

Prayers for my nextdoor neighbor Sharon in dealing with the sudden passing of her husband yesterday, prayers for Useful’s job search. Grateful to start another year feeling . MIAGD, gents!

10 HIM tested fate this morning at Jack It Up. The three ECers got a sneak preview, while the rest had to wait. No flag as it was in Spade’s “other truck” so off we go. Mosey down and around the sheep loop. Standard warm-ups then the fun began.

The Wheel of Pain came out of hibernating and was ready to dole out a solid beatdown. Each PAX took a turn with fate and per typical wheel magic we hit every slice. HG gave us the final spin and ‘somehow’ it magically ended up on burpees. Pickle between each round, pax choice, sheep loop or small pickle + plank hold while waiting for the sheep loopers. 5k covered for some, rock solid abs achieved for others.

Odyssey in October, Culture week coming in November.
Prayers for Gravel Mouth’s fire academy test coming up.

Stick around long enough at coffeeteria and you might even get to meet someone considering becoming Senator Mark Kelly’s personal assistant.

9 bootcampers and 7 run clubbers this AM.

One last trip to the beach this morning to send out summer on a high note. Swimsuits were highly encouraged but YHC didn’t give that disclaimer until 5:44 so only YHC was appropriately dressed. Nevertheless we prevailed and started off on our journey with a mosey to the rest area. At this point one of the kids naturally started yelling ‘Dad I gotta go!’ so we pulled in, did some warm-ups, stalled and discussed pigeons on the beach, and something about ground hogs….

Anyways, continue back on our trip to Ritter for….

The BEACHBALL

Grab a beachball from the Qs trunk and lets begin. Various exercises together followed by a pickle where the mode of transit was beachball thrusters (throw your beachball at the top of the thruster then go get it). Exercises were heavily skewed towards Mary (gotta get that six pack for the last beach trip):

B ox cutters
E lbow to knee crunches
A merican hammers
C ockroaches (that are dying)
H eels to heaven
B urpees
A l gores
L ow slow flutters
L unges

Then we closed out with 3 amazing rounds of F3 Beachball Dodgeball which was enjoyed immensely by all.

HAND

Announcements
Deacon in Wake Forrest tomorrow
Odyssey in Green Level next month
Happy 7 yrs to Punch Out

10 souls came out for what was supposed to be an Iron PAX Challenge recovery day but instead received a 5 inning beatdown on the F3 baseball diamond. F3 baseball is nothing like real baseball, except there are bases and there might also be some whining.

Ended with newly coined sir fazio wrist circles to ease of pain from crab walking. I believe the passerbys were very impressed with this.

Great work by the men and great to see DEET out there with us!
