Negative splits out to Chipotle and back.

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.

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.

8 runners ran ( i assume the GTL proposed 10 miler); 6 Boot campers faced the cold in definitely not Pearls on a String. We did however do a warmup and some exercises on the way to the Thang. Thang was a YHC favorite Triple Nickel on the Kildaire hill. The definition of Triple Nickel was questioned and I continue to doubt what it is as i type this. Nonetheless, One legged Merkins were done (5 reps for each leg elevated) at the top of the hill, Zombie Crunches (5 reps of oblique focused crunches on each side) at the bottom. YHC planned more but didn’t realize how far it was from the flag to the hill. 3 miles covered and a variety of body parts were exercised over the morning. Good discussion of worthless baseball cards, grapefruits, pears, Belichick, toys that are too big, and virtual holiday partys. Great group; thanks for letting me lead

Today, December 7th, 2024—a date which will live in infamy—the region of Carpex was suddenly and deliberately attacked by the pax of South Cary. All in good fun, though, as we invited them all to the party.

Maynardrenaline was high for this Major 1stF Challenge. When it was all said and done, we had:
– 2 current Nantans
– 2 former Nantans
– 1 shirtless lunatic (I’ll give you one guess)
– 12 Days of Christmas EC
– 100 merkin EC
– 2 six-packs + EC’s completed (Astro and OTW)
– Christmas Elvis appearance
– 6 Maynard first-timers, if I am counting correctly (Astro, OTW, Spade, French Lick, WebMD, Dunk)
– At least 6 Maynard or 10-mile PR’s (The Super, Hallmark, Revere, Saban, Astro, French Lick, if I missed anyone let me know)
– A new F3 Maynard segment leader, and 2nd overall (Revere)
– Over $500 raised so far for the Matthew Larson Foundation for Pediatric Brain Tumors, and I’ll be donating an additional $10 per person for each person who ran today. If anyone else feels led to donate (completely optional), I’ll leave the donation window open until EOD tomorrow. Venmo @AnthonyJJohnson (last four digits 3233)
– Some great words at COT from Phoenix Q Tecumseh about the impact of F3.

I am constantly amazed by this group. Great job everyone, thank you for participating, love you guys and MIAGD.

8 for pearls on a string around (and around) the Regency loop with escalating merkins and squats. 4+ covered. Prayers for Chanticleer’s family and the loss of his aunt. Much to be thankful for this week. Make it a great day, gentlemen.

Some Power Walked, Some Ran and Some did the Bootcamp. Most all did Stifler’s Mom at the end. MIAGD!

16 for Soles to the Poles, an opportunity to demonstrate “male community leadership.”

We swung by the church next to Highway 1 where MacGregor votes, then up to Piney Plains for a Lochmere precinct.

Announcements: MFRFSP is coming up – Super has details. Apex 5K in March (ping Orphan for promo code). Bowling 2ndF on Friday.

Prayers/praises: Our brotherhood is unaffected by political whims.

NMS:
–Always great seeing Orphan, an all-time good guy.
–Badda/Bing run a tight ship, checking in with the Q before and after the workout. After Chops’ epic run at JDI, it’s clear the site is going from strength to strength.
–Apparently there’s a third precinct near SWW that I could have picked up on our way back. Duly noted for next time.
–I was fifth in line to vote. Saw a bunch of neighbors. Heck of a morning.

As the second hand swept over to 0530, the chit-chatting came to an abrupt close and we jumped straight into it at the original High Tempo AO! No warning, no looking back. YHC quickly recognized he was the slowest and most out of shape runner in the crowd. Gonna be a day!

We high-tailed it over to the neighborhood just past the Garmin building for a reasonable warm-up (including 20 ‘Mericans) and then got right to it. Four corners in the neighborhood.

Round 1: 20 ‘Mericans at each corner (Brings us to 100)
Round 2: 50 Squats (Totals 200)
Round 3: 75 LBC’s (Totals 300)
For anyone participating in OTW’s Dora-A-Day challenge, day one is in the books for you.

Time to start heading back! We hightailed it top the gigantic parking lot and paused for ten Worst ‘Mericans Ever, then all you got for the almost half mile back to the flag, coming in only a few seconds over.

Culture Week for South Cary
Thanksgiving Convergence (Carpex at BO)
Holiday Party’s coming up
Election day and Wake County Teacher Work Day tomorrow.

Thanks for the push, or pull as it may have been!

Missed a few PAX but a solid showing from the greater super region PAX and the accompanying M’s at Medoc this morning. Multiple hardware earners for tops in their categories! Great weather and tacos taboot.
