Q: IC Light
PAX: Kitty Litter, Dowry, Oofda, Joe Smith, Suck UP, Water Wings, Brie, YeeHaw, Dexter, Amway, GTL, Chanticleer, Squatter, Largemouth, Michelob, Francois, Denali
PAX (not in Slack): Grease Monkey
FNGs: None
COUNT: 19

11 Boot Campers camped and 8 Run Bros Ran.

Boot campers were lead to the parking lot behind Ritter off Crescent Green. Amway lead the Pax in warm ups and then had all previous SWW Site Qs lead an exercise. He then turned it over to YHC to lead the ME. We moseyed back to the lot at SWW where we did modified coupon circuits with a long pickle run in between each circuit. Music was on the agenda (play list was epic), however, the speaker had other ideas. Mumble chatter was on point. We ended with plank-holds and chill-cuts for Mary.

Announcements: SCary Family Picnic 4/27, The Highland Games 4/19 and DDD 2/22. Oh and YHC has been recruited to fill the Big shoes of Brie as Co-Site Q of SWW (some equated it to Belichick going to UNC…which could be taken many ways). It’s and honor and privilege to serve as Co-Site Q with Amway.

I’ll leave you with this…F3 gives us an opportunity to encourage one another and build each other up each morning during workouts. Use that to set the stage for the rest of your day. Carry over that encouragement to your family, friends, co-workers and anyone you encounter throughout the day. The world needs more of that.

“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11).

MIAGD!!!

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.

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

14 Fair-Weather F3 bros came out to run the JDI on this awesome run-friendly mid-50s kinda morning.

An attempt was made to draw some Strava art, with mixed feedback from the pax.

Haven’t Q’d in a min so it was nice to come out and lead a workout.

COT – Blessings this Christmas season and prayers to all that sometimes lies heavy and buried in our hearts.

Sign up for the SCary Christmas party.

MIAGD!

Twas a brisk morning for a tour of Lochmere golf course. 13 pax navigated the cart paths up to the Beast of Birklands hill. Pushing up a 20% incline was absolutely the climax of our run, and possible our day! Stories were shared, world problems were solved. Was an honor to lead today.

Reminder about world’s greatest Maynard this Saturday.

YHC prayed for any unspoken prayers, and encouraged everybody to read psalm 139. Which reminds us that each one of us was uniquely and wonderfully made by God! Everybody has a purpose!!

Make it a great day fellas!

Big numbers all around and great times as well. 21 set sail on a yacht rock journey through Summerwinds. Felt like the summer breeze was flowing as the pace picked up fast.

Announcements included TCP sawgrass, Joe Smith’s Black Friday workout at SWW and the SCary Christmas Party. Prayers were lifted up for the great mentors in F3 and the great groups we have. As The Doobie Brothers said, it keeps you running! MIAGD!

14 run broz to get in their 5 miles for the day. Several EC’d in advance of the ME. One only EC’d. It was an honor to be surrounded by such a strong group of run broz…beige, ultra, etc.

We headed down Tryon towards Shepherd’s Watch, turned around just past Franklin Chase to head back and detoured over by the flag location for FWD to get some points. Speaking of points, YHC was dressed as Hermes, as I led the workout wearing a costume.

MFRFSP going on now. Freed to bleed. Thanksgiving convergence at 0630 at Ritter. MIAGD!

After trekking many miles and slaying a few beasts along the way, i found ye olde slippery when wet AO just as i remember.

I think i have been here once before, but never Q’d. I asked @francois about the lay of the land and with his guidance, we grabbed some of the small rocks and headed up to kildaire farm rd and the little shopping center across the street.

Did a bunch of randome exercises, some backwards runs, and chatted about pubes, underlings, and how leaders should always strive to punch down and make others feel small.

good seeing old faces and meeting some new ones. see y’all at Uhwarrie or in Umstead
