WARMUP: Mosey to the large circle area across from CFD station 9. GM, IW, HB, CS, RS, SFAC, FSAC

THE THANG: Set of 9s on the fire station-adjacent hill. Burpees/mountain climbers.
Introduced the MDCH boys to LORA (L/R step up, squat jack, monkey humpers) while one partner ran 2 laps around the little pickle.
MARY: Half CORA+ a little bit more at the 6 grass patches on the way back to the flag (10 WW2 sit ups, 20 homer to Marge, 30 4count flutters at each patch). Some enjoyed the flutter kicks more than others. Some were glad we weren’t doing luges. Some practiced correct Homer to Marge form, both hands in the air as though you were cupping something or rubbing someone’s shoulders.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Flenderson is organizing a bracket challenge. $10 buy-in and winner picks the charity to donate the winnings to. TCP move, Chain gang, SCary picnic.
COT: Family in MacGregor with the 8 year old diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.

Ever since Moio Dojo Casa House was born, I had a hopeful dream. That dream became a reality today!   10 gathered at the flag – 3 regions represented. This was gonna be fun.

WARMUP: Pearls on a string through the neighborhood to Seabrook.  

THE THANG: At each light pole on Seabrook, do a burpee. Stop at MacDonald Woods park, lungewalk down the long ramp and head for the basketball court.  
Lo and behold, it’s the On the Way and the Flirtin With Disaster crew! We joined up for 1.5 rounds of their four corners. At the end of the round, another headlamp squad approached. ITS THE JDI CREW. Captain Jack led the tri-AO convergence in 10 merkins, and then we dispersed.  
Over to the playground for Irkins Dips and Derkins. Back to the flag via the Pirates Cove greenway stopping for various squat and plank exercises, and one safety shoelace check.  South Cary Stretches at the flag and that’s it!  

MARY: South Cary Stretches at the flag.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: HG 3/16. Apex  3/18. SCary picnic 5/19.

COT: Katie & baby health, comfort for Ian.

I love our region(s) so much, this was a blast. Many thanks to OTW and CJ for orchestrating their workouts around a convergence. And thanks to Yoga for coffee, we had 90% in attendance!

Lots going on this morning at SWW. All kinds of EC variants, run club, bootcamp, downrange posters, and an FNG. Congrats to Fruit Loop on that first EC run…as a result of showing up to the workout at the wrong time.

Mission, core principles and disclaimer given. For the ME we moseyed over to Java Jive while the run clubbers cleared out for standard warmups.

Thang 1 was about a mile loop with stops at every left turn off for 10 CDDs and 20 monkey humpers.

Back to Java Jive for a standard Dora with merkins, squats and LBCs…but had to close out all of one before moving on to the next exercise.

Then moseyed back to the flag just in time.

Announcements of all the things on Saturday. Prayers for the marathoners, Israel, Ukraine, and Maine.

Welcome FNG, Tablets!

When in the course of human events, we get 76 + 1 PAX to descend upon Ritter Park, we do so to honor the birth of our great nation and celebrate our freedom.

Many brave souls ventured out to conquer one of the 3 EC options available. A near-problematic number embarked on the treacherous Freedom EC to capture a shovel flag being held by the British Crown, deep in the Scottish Highlands of Lochmere.

The main event started with a 1776-yard mosey (approx 1 mile) and then we proceeded to work through a list of 1776 reps between 17 different exercises….100 reps each, then we bear crawled 100 yards back to the flags and did 76 burpees together going around the circle where each PAX had a chance to call “down” for 1 burpee.

We covered 1.76 miles in total, according to Hello Kitty’s official Strava record. This backblast may also have taken 1776 seconds to write. 4 FNG’s named. Callahan took us out in prayer. Pinto snapped a great group pic. The afterparty included several pots of coffee, water, beer, hard seltzers, danishes, American flag cookie, and great fellowship. Thank you to everyone who joined us to participate and everyone who contributed to make this event a success!
