Another AMBRR is in the books fellas. A huge shout out to the entire SAG Crew for all they did to make this a successful event. There is a lot that goes on behind the scene leading up to the event and during. I can’t thank them enough for their leadership.

Under the darkness of the early morning sky at 0600, 31 runners set out to achieve something. What that “something” was was different for each of us. Some ran for fun and fellowship, others ran to beat a previous time or distance and others ran to prove to themselves that they could run a 10K or a Half Marathon. Whatever that something was, I am hopeful we all achieved what we intended to.

I am grateful for F3 and how it has impacted my life and for the relationships formed over the past couple of years…

You all crushed it this morning! Do the same the rest of today as well. MIAGD!!!

YHC Ghost Flag Tour! Well kinda, because shortly after gathering at the Thunderstruck Flag, it was asked, “Where is the Ghost Flag”…Dammit! It’s in the car. I can show you later!
No FNGs, Pledge and we’re off.
YHC didn’t travel far from the site that he has never been to, so we lapped the parking lot and warmed up off in the corner. Standard GMs (while the PAX said a quick origin story of their F3 name! And that’s how I learned @Snip will not have any more kids.) Calf Stretch, Runners Stretch and SSHs.
Off to Thang 1: The Beast…6 exercises, 6 stops, 6 times! Jump squats, Spider Merkins, Low Slow Flutters, Burpees, Monkey Humpers, and LBCs.
Off to Thang 2: Cinderblock Loop. While grabbing the blocks from my car…LOOK there’s the Ghost Flag! Groups of 3-4 One PAX call exercise and takes off with the block around the loop, while the PAX AMRAP said exercise. Rotate and repeat for 2 trips with the block each!
Back to the Flag for MARY! PAX choice.

Announcements: AMBRR run! HGTV is looking for a few more SAG guys.

Prayers and Praises: Brie shared with about DEET and his family about their daughter!

YHC lead in prayer! MIAGD!

And that’s all she wrote for the 3rd annual South Cary CSAUP; The 2024 Highland Games.

First things first, BIG UPS to the allstar SAG crew led by @HGTV. You HIMs made this entire CSAUP as effortless as it could be for the participating pax with the support you provided. The crew spent their time, energy, and even their personal funds making this happen for us. TY4FL. YHC, for one, feels surprisingly fresh after running the 12.5 miles and I am going to attribute that to the support crew.

Also a big round of applause to Poncharello, who travelled all the way from the other side of the county (Wake Forest Region) to play the bagpipes and send us running into the GLOOM. SCary is entirely grateful. After a short speech by our very own Nantan, Pocharello wowed us with his musical piece (star spangled banner) in theme with the Scottish Highlands. With that we picked up the shovel flags and collectively hit the road.

@Kitty Litter and @Jigglypuff led us to the entrance of the Greenway where we were instructed to do some warm ups and light stretching. A nice appetizer to what was to come.

First hiccup of the day when the peloton took a wrong turn and ended up on the wrong trail, which we quickly remedied. On the right path and a mile of jogging, we arrived at #ao-fri-slipperywhenwet.

Thang 1 – Our Qs @Amway and @Spayed had the pax teamed up in 3s and had each team find a throwing rock. One team-member handled shot putting the rock over a swampy field while the second and third team member performed dips in the shelter and bear-crawls in parking lot, respectively. When the shot-putter finished his turn, duties were swapped among team-members. 4 rounds and we were done. Winning team won the prize of having to do 5 less burpees than the 10 the losing teams had to perform. Mosey on to the next site.

Thang 2 – Arriving safely, we were greeted by the @Hallmark and @Water Wings at #ao-wed-pointbreak. We were broken up into several teams and we went team vs team pushing two vehicles up the parking lot. The pax were skeptical of the claim that the vehicles were separated in weight by a mere 10 lbs. This was one heck of an effort pushing those vehicles up a slight incline. Done and dusted, we all picked up the shovel flags and moseyed onto the next site a mile up the road.

Thang 3 – #ao-tue-flirtinwithdisaster was our next destination and the Qs here were @Joe Smith and @Banjo (Carpecker). Pax were divided into 2 and one half went to the muddy field near the Greenway entrance for some stubby log tosses while the other half stayed to do a round of caber toss. These strong man exercises were accompanied with Popcorn Marys. Tough stuff here.

Thang 4 – One of the few climbs in the route to reach our destination at #ao-fri-shepherdswatch. @Astro and @Flintstone divided the pax into 4 teams and YHC was marvelled at the efficiency at which the teams were assigned. Almost like grabbing a ticket at the DMV in the form of @Flintstone assigning each pax a number as soon as we entered the location one by one. Good stuff fellas. Tug-O-Wars was the main course here and the smiles on the faces of the pax made it known that we all had a jolly good time. YHC has a grievance that almost all the rounds were won by the team that was pulling on a slight downhill. Conspiracy theory maybe? Shovel flags in hand, the pax headed to the next site, the longest stretch of 1.6 miles.

Thang 5 – Arriving at #ao-sat-lochnload we were surprised to see flag poles, pallets, cinder blocks, ropes, and @HGTV’s smiling face. This surely meant he had something deviously painful in store for us and indeed he did. 4 teams pushed a pallet with a bunch of cinder blocks. The challenge was to go from flag to flag while pulling these pallets with one teammate on board. At each stop, we had an assigned exercise administered by a SAG crewmember. Tough stuff again.

Like the half-time intermission for any competitive event, we were rewarded with one at this point. A cornucopia of cut up fruit, rice-krispies, pickles, mustard, water, gatorade, etc. awaited us. YHC has another conspiracy theory that the guy who was in charge of the bananas accidentally bought plantains instead. I should probably have put eating those plantains as Thang on its own. 🙂

Thang 6 – Refreshed the pax were surprised by the unveiling of 4 heavy and dusty tires and a 12-foot long 4×4. This pole was used to carry those 4 tires all the way to #ao-mon-kryptonite and the pax were expected to chip in and take turns without ever laying the contraption on the ground. Running was kept to a minimum because of the awkwardness and weight of the whole operation.

Thang 7 – @Life Alert and @Texas Ranger awaited us at Java Jive and the makeshift #ao-wed-hulkamania site. We threw kickballs into surprisingly flexible and mobile human basketball hoops while lunges were performed for a make and burpees for a miss. It was deemed a race by the Qs so I don’t know if YHC saw even one properly executed lunge or burpee. 🙂 Regardless, we can all agree that the human-basketball-hoop was the real MVP of this basketball operation. It wasn’t about the shot, it was all about how well the human-hoop moved to assist the making of the errant shots.

Flags on hand and the tire and pole contraption in our collective hands we were off to our final destination, #ao-mon-kryptonite. These final 1.5 miles were tough sledding, but in the end we all made it back, which YHC was grateful for.

COT: SCARY picnic on the 19th of May, various blood drives for you to be a part of, Respect and Honor week coming up, and the naming of FNGs Tide Pod, and Sunkist. Prayers and Prayers!

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. This is how YHC feels after completing the whole route wearing a 20lb ruck-vest (well, the floating part, not the stinging part). It was a great honor to be a part of this operation and once again I want to point the spotlight to the SAG crew. Even though they did not shed a single bead of sweat they still managed to become the MVPs of the CSAUP. Also great thank yous to all the volunteering Qs who showed us a great time all while challenging us at the same time.

Love to all.

MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!!!

If I woke up tomorrow morning with my head sewn to the carpet I wouldn’t be more surprised than I am right now.

It was a bit nipply this morning so it was the perfect time for Clark W. Griswold to come out for a Christmas Vacation Q. While some were out running The Cleaver, we started out as always by saying grace, and then we set out on a quest to find the Griswold family Christmas tree.

After some running around, we finally found it, but the snow was deep so we had to lunge walk our way to it. When we got there, we realized we didn’t bring a saw, so we had to uproot the tree with some Al Gore jump squats. Then we did some Good Mornings to show you where we’re going to put a tree that big. WIth my Christmas bonus, I’m putting in a swimming pool, so we did some Michael Phelps’, and even threw in some South Cary stretches for good measure.

Then it was time to go shopping. We went blousing from storefront to storefront where we met Mary.

After that we had to get ready for our family to arrive, so we ran to a parking lot and it turns out Cousin Eddie showed up in his RV, so we did some Rocket jumps and V-ups around the pickle.

I wanted to try out a new non-nuclear cereal varnish my company is working on, so we found a hill and attempted to set a new saucer sled land speed record.

When we got back, Uncle Louie burned down our tree, and at least it was out of its misery, but we had to cut down a new one with some buzzsaw chillcuts.

It turned out the tree we cut down had a squirrel in it, so we partnered up and did some Catch The Squirrel If You Can, and when your partner caught you he yelled “squirrel!” and smacked the squirrel with some American Hammers.

Despite the many challenges, we ended up having the hap-hap-happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with you-know-who.

Remember to not take yourself too seriously as we go through any challenged we are faced with this holiday season. Be a leader in your family and community to remind people what Christmas is really all about–something we seem to get further and further away from each year. We are extremely grateful for this group so let’s continue to share it with other men in our lives.

Merry Christmas to all, and Make It A Great Day!

38 posted at #ao-tue-dtp. SCary came to Peak City for a slightly Halloween-themed scavenger hunt. About 2.5 miles were covered by most, Franklin’s portopotty was visited, Term Paper dressed as a go go dancer, and half the teams found the pineapple. 10 Ruck This Way’ers joined us for COT. Big attendance for coffeeteria (thanks to the SCary guys that brought their carafes). Thanks for a great morning, Apex!  Happy Halloween 👻
