12 men joined me for a journey. A journey that went around and back again. There were trials, there were foes, and there were many manholes.

Pledge, mosey to cul-de-sac for warmup where I got reprimanded for my enthusiasm for the side straddle hop. Mosey to the Greenway for 7s of LBC and heels to heaven. Then continued on the journey with indian run. Paused in cul-de-sac to make sure we all made it. Then down into the depths of Lochmere.l golf course Greenway. 20 pushups at each manhole=100 total. Round the way and back up to the flag with star jumps and some fellowship on the way.

Good work men! Honored to lead.

Prayers for all the kids going back to school and remember we have the AMBRR coming up on the 9/7 and Shark Nado this Thursday at BIB. MIAGD

2 🎱’ers, 1 🔪’ite, 4 EC’ers, and 9 ME-only HIMs gathered in the gloom to slay the calorie-dragon this morning.

A pledge to Old-Glory and slow mosey on to the Whole Foods parking lot, using the long and scenic route, where we did our usual SCary warmups and a mini yoga session.

Thang 1 – Courtyard core work with LBCs at the bottom on the cool @Astro-turf, up the stairs on the left for a set of heels-to-heaven, across the parking lot to the other side for a set of Freddy-Mercs, and down the stairs for another round. 3 total rounds.

Mosey

Thang 2 – A modified version of ‘The Impossible-Mile’ was the main course here. Broadjump burpees, lunges, bear-crawls, and a run around the building completed a set. 4 total sets putting us at just over an ‘Impossible Mile’!

Mosey back to the 🔱-flag with seconds left on the 🕰.

COT: Signup for The AMBRR and do not forget to post at the newest SCary AO; Jellystone, Sat 8am (Cary Crossroads movie theater parking lot). Prayers and praises for Yogi’s boy @Flea.

MIAGD!

Thirteen in the gloom for YHC’s 1 year(ish) anniversary. Though not as prepared as Spade, the Q had an alternate full immersion workout planned if the skies opened up. As that did not happen, we proceeded with alacrity through standard SCary warmups. The main event was three mini Doras of varying exercises punctuated with sprints in between to keep things funky fresh. Since it would not be a Fruit Loop Q without something from the Exicon, we made sure to pull out some greatest hits including Flying Nuns, Nutcrackers, and the ever popular Foxholes. We arrived back at the flag barely on time, but sure and steadfast in the accuracy of our GPS enabled chronometers. Thank you for a great first year, gentlemen.

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 HIM showed up this morning and got stronger at the (I’m told) first ever low running PB workout ever. (Cleverites excluded)

We trusted ourselves to fate and came out the other end a little bit stronger and a lot a bit sweaty. Many have some more burpees under their belts. Some have many more burpees under their belts (looking at you Jpuff!)

It was an honor to lead you fine men this morning.

Gizmo out.

Beautiful morning at PB!

The EC run crew came blazing in with a sub 8 pace and after a quick mission and core principles we were off!

Quick show lap of the burpee relay that we would hit later and quick warm ups on the green pavilion. Shout out to Bubba’s grundle.

Headed to the wake parking garage for Thang 1.
YHC didn’t realize how many floors it had so what started as a beast – quickly turned into 69. Ay O! 6 reps on each 9 floors.
– monkey humpers
– world’s worst merkin rotation
– lunge + LBC + H2M

Travel back to the pavilion for our burpee relay!
2 teams racing the pickle with burpees at designated spots while PAX hit Mary until their turn. Started together – finished together.

Announcements- summer swoltice next Thursday. + greater Carpex burpee + no sugar challenge to raise money for a diabetes cause.

Prayers – travel mercy’s and safety. Lifting Bubba up for his visit with his dad. Ma Bell’s move to Alpharetta in July. Prayers for safety on the roads.

MIAGD Gents! Welcome Cowbell! 🐄🛎

Well, all good things must come to an end. After 279 days of successfully evading the Q spotlight, YHC happily accepted Astro’s invitation to lead this fine group of HIMs. We started with the Pledge and mozied around the church to start warmups which consisted of Side Straddle Hops, Sir Fazios, Seal Claps, and overhead claps, culminating with the South Cary Stretch. Then off around the church and across the street to the Craft parking lot. The Thang included AMRAP of all the classic exercises with laps around the pickle mixed in between. The exercises included: merkins, Bonnie Blair’s, Bix Cutters, CDDs, squats, plank jacks, burpees, and LBCs. Then back to the flag for a quick round of Mary. Shoutout to @Triple Lindy for the workout format.

Announcements were announced, praises were praised, and prayers were prayed. Special thanks to F3 and you SCARY HIMs. I’m forever grateful I found you guys and the impact you’ve made in my life. Onward!
