High tempo was requested, high tempo was delivered. Pledge while Joe Smith gets his act together, and we are off. Quick and non-efficient warm ups for the group consisting of “stretch on your own”, in cadence of course. Dang these guys are hard to please.

Time to run . Partner loops in the cottages, 2nd place penalty was burpees. Then reverse.

Mosey to the high fluting renaissance of SCary, for quick game is catch me if u can. Pax were too busy rubbernecking and missed a turn. Penalty merkins were administered (leadership takes effort and intent).

Finally, we moseyed to the Garmin building for a near miss from a disgruntled Garmin employee. 2 of 7’s, with various counts of calisthenics.

Indian back to flag, with 15 seconds to spare. 4.5m covered. Great job today fellas. Honor to lead.

We went on a chilly adventure through the golf course and Francois loved it.

12 festive exercises were expertly executed while covering 3.4 miles and enjoying festive tunes. Then many burpees and side straddle hops were completed while enjoying the Christmas classic Peace on Earth by David Bowie and Bing Crosby (https://youtu.be/lCpXMy5GalI?si=OoaQ4bCY70k7_hID). Merriment followed with festive drinks and delights.

Four for an EC to parts of Regency that YHC could never find again. Had three minutes to catch my breath and say hello to a couple of the guys I didn’t recognize.

5:30… time to roll. No Star Spangled Banner today.

Group run to Regency Forest industrial park. Warm up in front of nameless office building. Split group into 2:
– stayers 20x merkins / squats / LBCs
– runners progressively engorged pickles

Commanders run back towards Koka. Pause in front of other nameless office building for snake race: PAX around the pickle approx equal distance apart. All run CCW. Once you get passed, you are out. Continue until only one is left. We stopped with Nabisco and Bing as the two left – on opposite sides off the oval. FInishing this up would have taken a while. Hermes almost puked.

Commanders run back to based for five minutes of Mary with lots of modifications. Rope climb, heel touches and Chasing Rabbits were called.

Announcements: CARPEX travel week continues; sign up for Xmas party by tomorrow noon; Oakwood fundraiser continues

NMS: enjoyed seeing old friends down south. Enjoyed meeting Schnitzel too. Newish guy. Someone get him on Slack!

YHC channeled my inner Term Paper to honor our brother who was unable to attend. Wearing a Carolina blue shirt, YHC led the Pax on a longer-than-usual warmup run in an attempt to battle what may have been the coldest morning of the season thus far.

Since Term Paper used to be a Dominoes franchisee, we started with a workout from the exicon called Dominoes which involved side plans and merkins to appear like slowly falling dominoes. That made our hands really cold so we moved on quickly.

Next we did a Dora at Lochmere Pavillion with merkins, squats, and LBC’s, and in honor of Term Paper, when your partner got back from running and asked how many reps you did, the only appropriate answers were “Yeah yeah yeah” or “something like that”.

Then, since TP loves playing bridge, we found a bridge and did another exercise called “Bridge Over the Nest” which apparently was too complicated and a few Pax got lost and we had to send out a search team for them, which burned up precious time at the end. Further proof that no one actually understands how to play bridge, except TP.

We may or may not have arrived at COT around 4 minutes late, but who’s counting anyway?

Prayers for our buddy Term and his family, and a reminder for us all to be grateful for every moment. MIAGD.

What a wonderful morning at South Carey’s finest standard Wednesday Boot Camp. We had 25 between the Cleaver runners, walkers, and boot campers.

We started with a brief warm-up in the Gonza lot, then moseyed to the Whole Foods lot for a serpentine jog across the aisles, broken up by quick 5 burpee sets. We then counted off by ones and twos in preparation for the thing.

The groups alternated running loops around the Waverly outskirt buildings, and doing a set of AMRAP Dora exercises, ending with Burpees and the Burger King. We weaved back through the main complex to find the incline near the flag for some clock Merkins, followed by a lightning Mary round to finish up.

Announcements – moving TCP families on Saturday, followed by shooting at Riptides, followed by Meatfest at Prodigal’s.

We lifted up a praise for Hallmark’s 14 yr anniversary and a prayer that we might find ways to deny ourselves today. MIAGD!!

A+ group of guys today at the home of the premier Monday South Cary high tempo AO. Small group Native American run around the lake and up the hill led us to the parking deck. There, 13 men lineup straight across with 1 on the jump rope, 1 on the agility ladder, 1 on the Ab station and 1 pounding out merkins. 9 runners then sprint down and back before rotating down and around each time. Solid showing on the rope by everyone.
Quick set of 5 stair runs then back to the lake to hustle it back to the flag in time for Nolan Ryan’s (ah I mean Robin Ventura’s to end it)!
Pumpkin Spice Coffee to wrap it up !
Make it a great one!
