YHC drove past approximately 4 other AOs to get to Walnut Street park. At 0530, after watching some sad clowns show up to stand around and watch a lady do kettlebells, YHC gave a disclaimer. At 0531 we moseyed past them to the front of the park.

Recovery mosey to the front of the park, do flutter kicks and copperhead squats, mosey back to the court for thang 2. Two groups, one group backward run across the court and do 5 burpees while the other group held BTTW. 2 rounds.

1 minute warning called at 0514. At 0515 Chops was still telling a story, so YHC allowed HIM to finish then gave a disclaimer and we set off for a warmup mosey to the big Koka Booth parking lot.

Warmup: Sir Fazios forward and back separated by overhead claps. Then we did Steve Earles, really nothing else is needed.

The Thangs: we did three different sets of 7s. Started by running between light poles, then we beat crawled, Lt Dan’d, and ran backwards. We did world’s worst merkins, squats, Maktar Ndiaye’s, Mike Tyson’s, WWI’s and Superman’s. Some needed gloves and didn’t have them.

Mary: mosey back to the flag for Captain Thor. Made it up to 9:36 before time ran out. YHC took us out. MIAGD!

Ever since Moio Dojo Casa House was born, I had a hopeful dream. That dream became a reality today!   10 gathered at the flag – 3 regions represented. This was gonna be fun.

WARMUP: Pearls on a string through the neighborhood to Seabrook.  

THE THANG: At each light pole on Seabrook, do a burpee. Stop at MacDonald Woods park, lungewalk down the long ramp and head for the basketball court.  
Lo and behold, it’s the On the Way and the Flirtin With Disaster crew! We joined up for 1.5 rounds of their four corners. At the end of the round, another headlamp squad approached. ITS THE JDI CREW. Captain Jack led the tri-AO convergence in 10 merkins, and then we dispersed.  
Over to the playground for Irkins Dips and Derkins. Back to the flag via the Pirates Cove greenway stopping for various squat and plank exercises, and one safety shoelace check.  South Cary Stretches at the flag and that’s it!  

MARY: South Cary Stretches at the flag.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: HG 3/16. Apex  3/18. SCary picnic 5/19.

COT: Katie & baby health, comfort for Ian.

I love our region(s) so much, this was a blast. Many thanks to OTW and CJ for orchestrating their workouts around a convergence. And thanks to Yoga for coffee, we had 90% in attendance!

10 guys for a limited run workout at the finest AO off Kildaire road on a Friday! The ORIGINAL Trunk Coffee AO, where all sorts of new trends originate!

YHC somehow injured his Hammies at “The Rodeo,” the OG Carpex’s newest high tempo Thursday AO and wasn’t too sure about being able to run or do much leg work today. Surprise! Running wasn’t painful at all, but I wasn’t taking any chances with squats, lunges, or other leg focused stuff.

After a brief jaunt through the parking lots, we did a vanilla warmup, then got right to it.

20 Dips in the shelter, feet elevated
10 pull-ups at the playground and LBCs while taking turns
Then we ran over to my truck to grab some Morning Wood. 20 Curls, 20 Rows, and then overhead presses while we walked to the far parking lot,
Throws to the left down the parking with 5 ‘Mericans after every through, followed by throws to the right back to the other end with 5 ‘Mericans after every throw
Back to the shelter for 40 Dips
Back to the playground for 10 more pullups / LBC’s
Morning Wood for rear overhead throws with 5 Worst ‘Mericans Ever after every throw (These were beginning to get a little difficult near the end.
To the Shelter for 50 dips
Playground for 10 Pullups / LBC’s followed by 5 negative pullups
Head to the woodpile to collect the firewood, OHP and Curl your way back to the truck.
20 WWII’s to wrap it all up.

There tons of “Morning Wood” jokes, of course and suggestions that this be entered into the Lexicon. Mild dadjokes were shared, as well as Joe Smith’s BRR Packing strategy for his upcoming trip to Disney!

Coffee was delicious as always!

Announcements:
Odyssey tomorrow, the weather forecast has improved!
Picnic on Sunday

Red Ryder took us out in prayer

See you at the CSAUP!

When in the course of human events, we get 76 + 1 PAX to descend upon Ritter Park, we do so to honor the birth of our great nation and celebrate our freedom.

Many brave souls ventured out to conquer one of the 3 EC options available. A near-problematic number embarked on the treacherous Freedom EC to capture a shovel flag being held by the British Crown, deep in the Scottish Highlands of Lochmere.

The main event started with a 1776-yard mosey (approx 1 mile) and then we proceeded to work through a list of 1776 reps between 17 different exercises….100 reps each, then we bear crawled 100 yards back to the flags and did 76 burpees together going around the circle where each PAX had a chance to call “down” for 1 burpee.

We covered 1.76 miles in total, according to Hello Kitty’s official Strava record. This backblast may also have taken 1776 seconds to write. 4 FNG’s named. Callahan took us out in prayer. Pinto snapped a great group pic. The afterparty included several pots of coffee, water, beer, hard seltzers, danishes, American flag cookie, and great fellowship. Thank you to everyone who joined us to participate and everyone who contributed to make this event a success!

…gee, what *didn’t* happen. this morning was a testament to the ethos of “free to lead”. 4 guys ran the Murphy. 5 guys did a boot camp. And 4 other guys did hill repeats. that said, EVERYONE did coffee at NYDBIII, as you would expect

South Cary redeemed itself with a strong showing at the DMZ. Joe Smith taught us about forking. Burt arranged the execution of some geese. Great fun was had by all.

14 are now experts on 50 years of college hoops champions. 5 running exercises each followed by core work where instead of cadence count we went until we named each years nat’l title winner going through one decade at a time 2021 until 1970. Great work boys .
