Amazing Day for some great HIMs at the SCary’sPREMIERE AO.

Started off strong with the pledge and a mosey heart touching moment for Web as he admired his senior leader and helped him remember how to call SSHs!

Next was lamp-post alley. Ran the alley twice, first round was merkins every post. This weekends upcoming horse race got me on the betting mood. Made a bet that ECs are not workouts, and my horse won! The prize. Next round Burpees at every post! Heart was screaming!!

Finished with a game of ultimate. And everyone promised to do their burpees at home today.

Praises and prayers.

Bonfire at TR’s place Saturday.

Make it a great evening!

8 PAX for a 7 themed workout.
No flag so we started with the mission instead. It just felt right to say something.

Mosey to the Tesla chargers for warmups. South Cary stretching was definitely in play (no pigeon though, we weren’t totally mailing it in).
Mosey west up the hill to the church for a set of 7 of diamonds. One exercises each round done at each corner of the diamond. Reps of 7, 14, 21, 28, 21, 14, 7.
Term Paper and Kirkland had a very high WRR, impressive stuff. One discussion was the Merkin Ring of Fire Buzz so we tried it out back at the non-flag. PAX count & merkin but every multiple of 7 or number containing 7 was stated as “Buzz” and the direction of the ring reversed. When PAX fail, restart at 1.
I am proud to say we set a new world record at 53 (previous record 50… your reign is over Franklin) and were still going strong but elected to call it on a high note.
Ended with 1 McDuck.

MIAGD and show those calves to your M’s!

I’m trying to fully recall JIU this am. Likely the most memorable was the realization of where the extra Picnic beans went….directly to TinkerToy. Today we experienced a random and unpleasant atmosphere around him. Apologies did not save us. Although this @Bubbles character remained an enigma, Tink revealed that he may be, in fact, the true bubble maker in the bunch. The drop for each burpee was like falling through low lying blanket of campfire smoke or fog one can see in a pastoral valley on a winter’s day. But a minute is a minute and we were not allowed to leave until the exercise was finished. Because that’s how we roll. Beyond that it’s a good thing I showed up to save that Q slot from this bubbles guy. A hearty EMOM took us over hill and dale, 20 exercises mixed in and we MIAGM despite the shenanigans. Pushing the PAX. Master brewing site Q gave us coffee that was on point.

3 for EC + 6 for ME for a slightly higher pace and distance than normal.

Admittedly I had planned a longer distance EC and ME targeting 9 total (3+6) miles and due to watch unfamiliarity missed that mark slightly, yet we still arrived to COT a minute behind. Will the negative legacy of questionable planning and execution linger?

Legacy: You’re leaving one whether you want to or not. Do the small things today with intentionality. Be cognizant of the legacy left to you. The lasting examples we all noted were mostly actions observed rather than directions states to us. Realize that as much as we’d like to control and manhandle the legacy that we leave, it is often beyond our control and better to raise prayer for certain things.

Grateful to start my 36th year surrounded by you HIMs.

9 Bootcampers and 6 Accelerators were out this morning. After Pledge we moseyed onto greenway for a partial neighborhood tour. We made 1st stop at cul-de-sac for warmups and then were back on the greenway to make our way over to the Thang: Triple Nickel w/ Merkins on the hill where YHC grew up. We then moseyed our way back to the flag with some Pearls on a String along the way just in time to squeeze a few extra Merkins in.

The PAX felt inspired to call several audibles along the way which YHC obliged. Fruit Loop gave his seal of approval of the tour. Great fellowship this morning fellas.

Announcements: South Cary Picnic tomorrow, Last push for April Leadership Challenge!

Prayers and praises sent.

MIAGD!

Started a few seconds late then moseyed to the Harris teeter for the main thang. Time to start getting ready for the Murph so partner Dora with pull ups, merkins, and squats. From there lots of moseying with random exercises and a 4 corners thrown in. Bubba particularly enjoyed the running and skipping. MIAGD

Less running today. Hit the upper body with merkins, diamond merkins, pull ups and dips. Legs was squats, curb touches and step ups and abs were a little of everything. The stretching was very popular today so we incorporated a little more throughout the morning. Overall a good workout.

Eight set off to test my new watch. Headed to Ritter for some dips and erkins, up the road for some quick good mornings, then over to Harris teeter for the thang. 7s across the parking lot with merkins and pull ups on the cart returns. Couldn’t figure out my watch and started to worry about time so back to the flag. We got back with time to spare so a quick fly by of monkey humpers for the smelly billy strings fanatics already camped out at koko.
Thanks for the opportunity to lead. It’s been a great 2 years of fitness and I’m even coming to enjoy the fellowship!

Got us some miles today. 5:30 sharp – off we go – warm up in one of those office buildings partway up cary parkway – GM, AV, HB, MC; then partner up and we are off – catch me if you can with 5 star jumps up the hill and across US 1. Stop at the first office building for a round of 15,10, 5 – dips, knee ups and irkins – then on up to seabrook avenue. Down the road – with stops every 2 houses for merkins or squats alternating. Once we reached MacDonald Woods Park, we did an animal crossing on the bball court. – bears, ducks, bunnys, crabs and frogs – one direction animal, jog back. Back on the greenway, when you reached the ramp for the bridge – lunge walk to the top. Stop in the middle of the bridge for Peoples chair and BTTW – 10 count down the line. Back to the flag for a perfectly executed 45 minutes and nearly 3 miles. Pretty short COT – mentioned stations of the cross and the Highland Games. Great coffeteria. Thanks for having me today.
