Ruckers rucked to the parking lot on the other side of Crescent Commons and did some island hopping. First round we did squats at each island (total reps 47). Second round we did merkins at each island (total reps 47). We then headed to the hill to the upper lot where we did hill repeats (squat holds at the top and shoulder taps at the bottom). After several rounds we headed back tot he imaginary flag for COT.

Announcements: DDD 2/22, HG 4/19, TRR 4/26 and Scary Family Picnic 4/27.

Prayers for Wing’s M and the passing of her Grandmother, those impacted by the wildfires out in California and Tickle’s back.

Great way to start the day. Thanks for following this geezer around for 45 minutes. MIAGD!

Merkins on a string to Waverly today to visit our brothers at 88 MPH for a rock, paper, scissors throwdown. Francois was nominated as the Krypto representative and promptly lost to Bubba. 10 Burpees for the losers. Back to Koka with more merkins on the way. Arrived with enough time for some popcorn Mary.

Mixed emotions by many about being used as pawns in the Worlds Scariest Man Challenge, and much heckling ensued. Deep down it warmed the hearts of all pax involved.

There was still snow on the ground too!!

MIAGD!

11 Boot Campers camped and 8 Run Bros Ran.

Boot campers were lead to the parking lot behind Ritter off Crescent Green. Amway lead the Pax in warm ups and then had all previous SWW Site Qs lead an exercise. He then turned it over to YHC to lead the ME. We moseyed back to the lot at SWW where we did modified coupon circuits with a long pickle run in between each circuit. Music was on the agenda (play list was epic), however, the speaker had other ideas. Mumble chatter was on point. We ended with plank-holds and chill-cuts for Mary.

Announcements: SCary Family Picnic 4/27, The Highland Games 4/19 and DDD 2/22. Oh and YHC has been recruited to fill the Big shoes of Brie as Co-Site Q of SWW (some equated it to Belichick going to UNC…which could be taken many ways). It’s and honor and privilege to serve as Co-Site Q with Amway.

I’ll leave you with this…F3 gives us an opportunity to encourage one another and build each other up each morning during workouts. Use that to set the stage for the rest of your day. Carry over that encouragement to your family, friends, co-workers and anyone you encounter throughout the day. The world needs more of that.

“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11).

MIAGD!!!

There was a wheel, there was a sandbag, there were stairs. Both site Q’s made it. MIAGD!

11 arrived at the flag at 0630. There was no known Q and no DR Q in sight. Only one man could fill the same colored shoes at such a moment, Yogi SPOKE UP! We moseyed to Java Jive for a warmup/wheel of pain/circle of grunts. It was a Q school of sorts. Then we moseyed back to the flag for 1 Mary call by the advertised Q, who was at the mailbox. Extended COT with three monologues. MIAGD!

Day 2 of the JigglyLitter tour continues. This Q spot snuck up on everyone, including the site Q. I loaded up the truck with coupons and we had a plan.

Pledge then warmup mosey in the main circle lot. Now over the river and through the woods we go. Thang 1 was an Impossible “Pickle”. Burpee broad jump down, lunge walk back, bear crawl down, run back, PUT6.

Thang 2 we moseyed to the Big Seimens Deck. Awaiting were some coupon stations. Partner up and one runs the deck up a level and returns down stairs while the other completes a station. Stations included battle rope, rope bag pull, sandbag thrusters, sandbag/ram roller rock you body, bucket squats. Everyone hit each station at least once.

Thang 3 was a North Pole – South Pole – Pain Train! Heading down the hill squat with increased reps at each pole, heading back up hill merkins decreasing reps at each pole. Typical SCary Pain Train style with hitting each stop then return home. Noting time we called it and circled up on the still closed bridge for a merkin ring of fire to 100. Mosey back to the flag. HAND!

F3 is cheaper than Orange Theory, SCary beat the over, iced coffee was the drink of choice for most. It’s always an honor to lead in the gloom. As Shutty noted, there will be a day when you cannot do this, but today is not that day! MIAGD!

Coxswain and YHC joined PAX in the rapidly growing DC Metro region. These guys aren’t just growing, they are prepared for growth! They had a fresh stack of over 30 cinderblocks stashed behind the elementary garden all with pristine, HGTV approved, F3 logos. Not sure they know that 30 is problematic, but we didn’t tell them.

Not sure any of us will be able to toast any champagne tonight due to all the merkins, curls, presses, skull crushers, side planks, plank jacks, and shoulder taps. But at least we did 4 lunges!

COT: Hug the ones you love… The Q’s daughter was a victim to road rage on the way to BWI yesterday and ended up in the median on 95. Fortunately, she’s completely fine. Unfortunately, nobody stopped to check on before emergency services came (sounded on par for Maryland…).

MIAGY!

Twas the morning before Christmas when all through SCary HIMs were stirring coffee at Mojo Dojo Casa House.

Fun fact of the day: Clocking over an hour workout, MDCH is rivaled by only MOAB in all of SCarpex.

Can’t think of a better way to kick off Christmas Eve than a little1st F and whole lotta 2nd F! MDCH saw over 50% ruck/weighted vest participation which has to be some sort of record. Roughly 3 pots of coffee consumed and a 100% Christmas left by a HIM at the other table. 8 is the optimal number for MDCH, fits 2 booths perfectly. Candied bacon will be consumed in at least two SCary households in the next 24 hours. And college sports is broken with no clear solution in sight…

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good day!

2024 Tour de Lightmere is in the books. Record 44 pax showed for this year’s premier SCary event despite the 28 degree temperatures. In the gloom glow ropes were passed out on the cookie table, brief safety instructions and then we were off.

First stop in a cul de sac was all about warmups featuring stealth burpees and the required Scary stretch. Waved goodbye to the house and then safely crossed Lochmere drive to run to Windy Rush Lane. Gathering like the Hoos ’round the leaf pile we held for the six, did a few more exercises culminating in Monkey Humpers in front of @hgtv’s house. Then on to Candy Cane house where the traffic suddenly picked up.

Down to the dock where the featured exercise was @kirkland leading us in 100s, a stroll down Lochmere drive, Earkins, Dirkins, Dips…cross the road, through the disc golf course culminating in the crazy house. The back to the flag for COT. Around this time @Kitty Litter pointed out that mileage topped 2.0 miles — a bit more than expected, but the pax made it through.

Robust COT with 10 FNGs. Six took names and four wisely remained anonymous so that they can’t be tracked by the government spies among us. The fires felt mighty nice.

Thanks to @Shipyard and @ Water Wings for fire duties and to all who helped make this a lot of fun for all. Ten FNGs at YHC’s workout means that with multiplier effects, means that @Fruit Loop has rocketed into first place for the 2024 Scaryiest Man contest. I humbly accept the honor. Who knew that Tour de Lightmere was the sleeper event to achieve a massive victory from behind?

2 HIMs gave YHC a warm welcome in the sub freezing temps at 88mph this AM. After a lap around Waverly, the pax warmed up in the While Foods lot. Then we did a few laps around the WF lot with 5 pull ups and 10 jump squats after each lap. After another lap around Waverly, YHC gave the pax what they wanted, Christmas music. Towards the end of this excellent circuit of Merlin’s, abs and running, Kitty Litter revealed his middle school Toni Braxton crush. He’s still a little salty that she signed a crappy record deal, ask him about it!

COT and prayers for those traveling and mourning loved ones not with them this Christmas.

100% coffeeteria attendance!

JRI is converging for Christmas Eve at MDCH tomorrow. Come join us
