SCary’s most problematic AO is back, and this time with record numbers! The dads jumped out to an early 4-1 lead, supported by the finesse of FNG dad VO5 (The Super’s BIL) who put up an early hat trick. The kids came back with a vengeance, tying up the match and then it was a close match the rest of the way. Sherpa’s 2.0 Hat Trick reminded us of our superb footwork and scoring abilities.
VO5’s 2.0 Rocket showed us his rocket of a foot. Grisham was full of energy and played most of the time with a 2.0 on his shoulders…taking rucking to a new level. Future F3 leader and kid veteran Four-Seam made some incredible saves in goal. Sbarro was a stonewall as usual. Water Wings and YHC showed off some fancy header “skills”. The Super found the back of the net in his SCary Dads soccer debut. Well Done saved our butts on defense more than once. Little FNG Yoshi showed no fear. George family 2.X’s Seadoo and Snorkel kept the kids’ offense moving. Kiffin wore his fancy glasses. The Mayflower girls might be on their way to playing for Barcelona. Somehow we ended up with 2 FIFA’s. Amazingly, no injuries. Happy Birthday to FIFA (Well Done’s 2.0), The Super, and Mayflower. Great time today! Looking forward to the next one.

4 dads and 9 kids converged on Ritter Park for a very dadsy-boot camp. After a warmup in the parking lot and a round of animal walk relays, we pearls’d with 1 Burpee at each stop out of the park and back around through the Baker Roofing lot into Ritter.

The dads showed no mercy this time and prevailed 11-10 for their first win of the season. Standout performances by Adjacent and his aptly-named 2.0 Manchester. A nice spread of assorted doughnuts and Gatorade provided by the Sbarro family.

4 dads and 8 2.0s displayed world class talent on the pitch today. Sherpa’s 2.0 was named Hat Trick for the obvious amazing display of talent! Too many highlights and standout performances to mention here.

You’ll just have to show up next week to see it live…

23 total F3 Dad’s and their 2.0s enjoyed a lovely first taste of fall weather and extended the no injury streak🤞 at South Cary’s most dangerous AO to 2.

The activities kicked off with the pledge of allegiance followed by a full speed mosey to the warm up spot. Good mornings, merkins, squats, side straddle hops, and lunges got everyone ready for the fun to come.

A mosey to the basketball court was followed by several balloon themed relay races and a couple animal relay races.

After that it was off to the baseball field for jump the creek and cross the ocean.

The Dad’s and 2.0s returned to the flag and welcomed two FNGs.

This morning’s animal-themed workout started with a review of the 3 F’s, then Armstrong led us in the pledge, then Spirit led us in a full speed warmup lap around the parking lot. Warmups consisted of various animal poses led by Spirit and a few called by fellow PAX.

We ran to another parking lot to do a variety of animal-themed relay races. The boys won 2 races, the girls won 1 race, and the dads won 1. The dads will need to train for next time.

Then we played kids vs dads capture the flag it was fun at first but didn’t end well….

SCary’s most dangerous AO claimed another victim and this time it was YHC…after a swift and heroic move capturing the flag, my getaway was foiled as I promptly slipped on the concrete and scraped up both my knees and dislocated my finger.

Special thanks to Jigglypuff and Sbarro for stepping in to help finish the last few minutes as YHC was bloody and somewhat disabled.

We finished with animal crackers (of course) and Gatorade. YHC was a bit disillusioned and forgot I had a whole carafe of coffee in the truck. Maybe I’ll save it for next month, LOL

Busy, hard working bunch this morning for some cardio cone work, obstacle course through the playground, basketball relay race and an intense Dads vs kids capture the flag game to wrap it up. Kids technically got the first flag capture and the win, but a headfirst full extension dive into the sandpit past 7 kids by The Super to start a late flag capture rally deserves kudos and a call out.
Wrapped it up with Juice Muffins and Z Bars… fun start to the day!

Dinosaur Roar exacted his revenge on the PAX today after last month’s detour to the urgent care, and along with co-Q Beans delivered a “Kids vs. Dads”-themed beatdown that proved an instant classic. Push-up Tag, Trivia/Category Relay Races, and a particularly risky round of Capture the Flag highlighted the day’s events. In an effort to stay on-brand, Dinosaur Roar came home with a pretty sizable strawberry on his knee, but formal medical care was avoided and the Smith family deductible lives to see another day.
My 2.0s had been looking forward to this for weeks, and I am grateful to each of you who came and made it awesome. Also very thankful for these leadership opportunities for the 2.0s. They’ll be ready for the next Form Week in no time. MIAGD!

YHC did his best to keep order and the kids warm while we traveled around the paths at Ritter park. My son also brought a whistle.. you can imagine how that went.

We did 6’s (6 squats) and 10’s (10 jumping jacks) at the baseball field bases, obstacle course work and ran to the tunnel to squat jump and touch the beams above and finished off with some old fashioned merkins weighed down by the 2.0’s.

COT included Gatorade and checking out Francois ride.

Welcome to 3 new FNG’s of the Wings clan and prayers to family members that are struggling with health, traveling for the betterment of our nation and others around the world, and those unspoken prayers.
