YHC stayed on the SCary side of US1 this morning as I struck an exchange deal with Sherpa to Q Point Break in return for a Q at Dantes Peak in July.

After a near flawless execution of the mission statement and disclaimer, we pledged, then we were off. We moseyed around to the Whole Foods for a standard warmup. I learned that calf stretches are a crowd pleaser/SCary mandate. Happy I checked that box.

We made our way to the courtyard for the first thang. Thang 1 was a variant on 4 corners. At each corner, we added an exercise and 10 more reps while repeating previous exercises. After each corner, we did 20 merkins in the center. 10 jump squats, 20 reverse lunges, 30 Cossack squats, and 40 jump squats.

Thang 2 was the same variant of 4 corners, but at the top lot and new exercises. 10 Makhtar N’Diaye, 20 tricep dips, 30 CDDs, and 40 merkins with 10 WWIs after each corner.

With 5 minutes to kill, we made our way back down the stairs for some quick partner work of giant step ups, bear crawl and lunges. We closed out with some Mary and an attempt at Peak City Have a Nice Day.

It was a privilege to lead a great group this morning. SCary is doing some great things with so much growth and many new faces.

MIAGD Gents!

JDI ran an out and back to Henry’s house where we stopped and said some prayers for him. Thanks for your support today. Some have asked if the family needs anything right now they have what they need, I’ll reach out if something comes up we can help with.

Prayers also for Stephanie in a recent accident has a long road of recovery ahead.

If I woke up tomorrow morning with my head sewn to the carpet I wouldn’t be more surprised than I am right now.

It was a bit nipply this morning so it was the perfect time for Clark W. Griswold to come out for a Christmas Vacation Q. While some were out running The Cleaver, we started out as always by saying grace, and then we set out on a quest to find the Griswold family Christmas tree.

After some running around, we finally found it, but the snow was deep so we had to lunge walk our way to it. When we got there, we realized we didn’t bring a saw, so we had to uproot the tree with some Al Gore jump squats. Then we did some Good Mornings to show you where we’re going to put a tree that big. WIth my Christmas bonus, I’m putting in a swimming pool, so we did some Michael Phelps’, and even threw in some South Cary stretches for good measure.

Then it was time to go shopping. We went blousing from storefront to storefront where we met Mary.

After that we had to get ready for our family to arrive, so we ran to a parking lot and it turns out Cousin Eddie showed up in his RV, so we did some Rocket jumps and V-ups around the pickle.

I wanted to try out a new non-nuclear cereal varnish my company is working on, so we found a hill and attempted to set a new saucer sled land speed record.

When we got back, Uncle Louie burned down our tree, and at least it was out of its misery, but we had to cut down a new one with some buzzsaw chillcuts.

It turned out the tree we cut down had a squirrel in it, so we partnered up and did some Catch The Squirrel If You Can, and when your partner caught you he yelled “squirrel!” and smacked the squirrel with some American Hammers.

Despite the many challenges, we ended up having the hap-hap-happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with you-know-who.

Remember to not take yourself too seriously as we go through any challenged we are faced with this holiday season. Be a leader in your family and community to remind people what Christmas is really all about–something we seem to get further and further away from each year. We are extremely grateful for this group so let’s continue to share it with other men in our lives.

Merry Christmas to all, and Make It A Great Day!

38 posted at #ao-tue-dtp. SCary came to Peak City for a slightly Halloween-themed scavenger hunt. About 2.5 miles were covered by most, Franklin’s portopotty was visited, Term Paper dressed as a go go dancer, and half the teams found the pineapple. 10 Ruck This Way’ers joined us for COT. Big attendance for coffeeteria (thanks to the SCary guys that brought their carafes). Thanks for a great morning, Apex!  Happy Halloween

PAX gathered and grumbled about how terrible the route chosen was prior to departure. After a few near misses with the most traffic Town of Cary has ever seen at 530, YHC started to think the PAX had a point. Good mumble about plans for conquering the Big Rock next year and reflection at the end was that this was the best route in JDI history. The skies held back the rain until COT and we watched the deluge from the cover of coffeeteria; The Super joined. Continued prayers for Staubach’s family. Great morning with you all, thanks for coming out. MIAGD

Was all a blur but I do recall low tempo, EZ pace, Lots of stretching and 419 SSH’s. More important 7 men got together. Our circle prayer at COT said it all – 7 men all with unique spiritual gifts, all with something to share, all more prepared to accelerate forward for others in their lives.

We circled Waverly Place, showed off our monkey humpers to traffic passing by, did many merkins, some ab work, gorilla hops, bear crawls, burpees. Beautiful morning in the gloom!
COT: Snip’s mom, Kitty Litter, unspoken requests. In Jesus’ name … Amen.
MIAGD fellas. Thank you for the opportunity to Q.

So I hear you guys really treat these as old school backblasts. Here we go…

YHC was very glad to finally Q Loch-n-Load after the hard launch on 1/1/22. There was much concern the hard launch would be in 2021 and I would be unable to complete my county-wide Q quest. Much thanks to the men behind that hard launch decision.

Neither Disco Duck nor I sported the super sweet SoCa shirts, but at least I’m on SoCa Slack.

-Mission, no disclaimer (whoops), Pledge (wasn’t sure if SoCa did that, but was told it was the Qs call so yes), no FNGs

-Run, Jack, Run: A Jack Webb inspired exercise, with a 1-3-1 ratio. Partner up for Accountability and Fellowship. Perform 1 merkin, 3 LBCs, 1 merkin. Run a loop around the upper parking lot. Increase to 2-6-2 then run the loop. All the way up to 10-30-10. Usually we would work our way back down to 1-3-1, but I love you guys and wanted to throw in another exercise.

-The Beast down and back up the main lot. Six stations, 6 reps of the same exercise, then repeat with a different exercise each time. So 6 stations-6 reps-6 exercises. The exercises were: Squats, LBCs, Carolina Dry Docks, Jump Squats, American Hammers (in cadence), then after considering Foxholes YHC went with the planned burpees

-Mary: Dolly, Homer to Marge, Rosalita, Freddy Mercurys, Dying Cockroaches, Can Opener LBCs (10 per side)

-COT prayers of thanksgiving for F3 South Cary, prayers for families struggling with mental decline, prayers for Trickle’s water weight loss during the workout

Three for coffeeteria at Chanticleer.

Disco Duck is “on tap” for a St. Patrick’s Day-themed workout next week. Be there or be sober.
