17 for bootcamp + 2 runners for 6 mikes. EC variety of rucking and running.

Beautiful day for some pain-sticks.

We squatted, pressed, cheese grated, LBC’d, pickled and great mumble chatter this morning. Main thang was Dora’s painful cousin Debra the Brat.

Put away our stick with 5 minutes to finish and boy did we finish strong.

Grateful for this group. A lot happening this fall. Check slack for details. 1st, 2nd, & 3rd.

Appreciate the opportunity to lead. MIAGD!

Problematic (or almost problematic?) day at the premier Tuesday boot camp actually located in south cary!

Took the long way over to the Lowe’s foods parking lot for warmups. Then headed over to the Ortho parking lot for three rounds of four corners. First round was 9 diamond merkins at each corner, second round was 24 jump squats and then third round was 83s.

Then we headed towards the park with an illegal road crossing in front of Cary’s finest (no trespassing tho!) and then a pause to monkey hump the JDI broz (of which there were many!) before heading to the shelter for 41 dips, 41 I/urkins, and a 41 second derkin hold.

Back to the flag for popcorn mary and COT right before the dome gave out. Coffee at the shelter!

Prayers for my nextdoor neighbor Sharon in dealing with the sudden passing of her husband yesterday, prayers for Useful’s job search. Grateful to start another year feeling . MIAGD, gents!

Today we celebrated by reaching a 2 mile goal, doing a BLIMPS along the way.

Celebration. Sharing our gifts. The M and I went to a fundraiser last night. Was amazed at the amount of wealth being donated in live auction format to meet monetary goals for a Wake Co. ministry called A Doorway to Hope. This org helps families and individuals in need across the Wake. We contributed where we could but the point is that all these people gathered and doing their best to share. Regardless of status, social placements, where you’re at in life, etc., we all have unique gifts. These gifts can and should be shared. It’s ok to celebrate the fact that you can share, use your gifts, your strengths to help others. Gifts can be anything – wealth, skills, etc. Doing this within F3 offers unique opportunities for each of us to help others. There are lots of events thru the year that F3 guys create and promote. Last night’s event reminded me that we need to celebrate those guys, those ideas, that joining them is the right thing to do, to help them to help others. Celebration helps get the word out.

The Tour-De-Sac took us to an area typically not traveled. After some comments about my counting, we moseyed down Lilly Atkins and visited a series of cul de sacs with workouts at each one. We finished with a visit to HGTV’s future home now that he is an empty nester and ready to downsize. Big ups to @Frazier to bringing out an FNG, Mall Walker. MIAGD!

Run season is in full swing and this morning was training for BRR, AMBRR, World’s Greatest Cleaver, or just keeping up with your kids in general. 3 for the run EC, 1 HIM for the burpee EC.

The Stonecutters formed their own shadow government and did their own thing, which was a walk/ruck to obviously prepare them for some upcoming battle or invasion that only they know about.

The ME was a big loop that covered about 3.7 miles, with stops for mostly leg exercises every quarter mile. Toward the end we paid a little visit to Water Wings driveway for some Hello Dolly, followed by IC Light’s driveway for some Monkey Humpers. Back to the flag just in time for the final exercise which was the American Sledgehammer—coming soon to the Exicon! Good times, lotta sweat. MIAGD.

9 Pax plus 1 Ocho for a Pearls on a String. After a warmup, mosey around Lochwood West stopping along the way for a variety of non-repeating exercises of the usual type. Then to the dock to try and see the paddleboard crowd, finding them far away on the lake. Bridge work including sprints and then one more trip back to the docks specifically to monkey hump the waterbound pax. Sadly, too far away for them to see us, but we did it anyway, because we’re men of integrity and they’d do it for us. It’s the honorable thing to do. Finish at the flag. Thanks for the opportunity to lead and for joining in on a typical humid Saturday in Cary.

No site Qs, no flag, no problem. The PAX persevered despite these initial setbacks and what felt like 160% humidity. One FNG so a flawlessly executed mission and PAX sourced core principles. Done and dusted, lets get going.

Quick loop around the upper lot w/ warm-ups. Informed our FNG of the copyright on SCary stretches and royalties it provides our humble region. Fully warmed we headed north on Lochmere Dr. 10 monkey humpers OYO at each side street. Some PAX questioned this but YHC was not swayed. Hang a right on Cary Pkwy and head down to the greenway.

7s on the greenway hill, Freddy Mercs at the top, H2H at the bottom. Once finished 20 H2H at the bottom together, then 20 Freddy Mercs together at the top. At this point some PAX started saying something about time, getting back, blah blah blah. So off we moseyed.

Really switched things up on the way home and did 10 CDDs at each side street. About halfway back a site Q finally showed up, even though just for a drive-by with some questionable swerving. Monkey humpers as he passed for good measure.

Back to the parking lot at 7:16, but no flag = no *

Good to FNG Spike here to visit. Hope he comes again next time he visits!

Thanks to the PAX for sticking with me on the gloriously humid morning. It was warm, it was sticky, but good times were had by all.

Morning Dew and Merkins Bold

In the heart of Saturday morn, we gathered—bold and free,
At Loch-n-Load, where sweat and camaraderie intertwine with glee.
Four corners of the tennis court, our canvas wide and bright,
Each step a brushstroke, every rep a stroke of might.

But wait! Our journey wasn’t done; adventure still ahead.
We sprinted, hearts pounding, toward Ninja Park’s wooded spread.
Pull-up bars awaited, like ancient trees with sturdy limbs,
And hills beckoned—a rollercoaster ride for our quads and whims.

And so, dear F3 warriors, our tale unfolds—
Of corners, pull-ups, and hills—our saga of courage holds.
Loch-n-Load witnessed our sweat, our laughter, our strife,
As we danced the morning away, weaving life into life.

Remember that day, when the sun saluted our might,
And Loch-n-Load whispered secrets to the morning light.
For in those moments, we weren’t just men—we were stars,
Painting constellations of strength across the tennis court’s memoirs.
