    Return to the flag and rejoin the Wally Runners that ran 4 plus miles each

    COT – raised up several intentions including our brother Kimchi for the heartbreaking loss of his son Xavier.

    NMM

    • The Weagle is a much welcomed venue for those of us forced to limit our running

    • The field was extremely muddy from the recent rain. YHC didn’t want to destroy it, but placed 2 cones there to see what sort of psychological effect it would have….it worked. It did not go unnoticed!

  • Deck of Life – from Fracsac

    6 Pax eagerly awaited for 0630 to embrace the beat down that was sure to follow. After a disclaimer the Pax climbed the steps for a warmup.

    Warmup
    IW, GG, AV, AC

    8 count body builders IC x 10

    The Thang

    Starting at the the first set of steps of NOMA, merkins increased by one up to the top. Call it stairway to heaven, ascending merkins or whatever…..11 steps if YHC’s count was accurate. When completed head back to base and 5 burpees.

    F3 deck of life! That’s the F3 deck sans squats, lunges and sprints. That left a whole lot of merkins! Each Pax takes a turn flipping a card, then calls cadence for exercise indicated on the card.
    Non face cards = 10 reps
    Face cards = 15 reps
    Jokers = 15 burpees OYO

    With a few minutes left, mosey to the back of NOMA for Sunday Mornings x 5 OYO

    COT

    It was a great way to kick of a Sunday Morning!

  • Running with the HIM or Burping with the Weagle

    Running with the HIM or Burping with the Weagle

    10 men arrived to continue their lifelong journey to impact their families and community for the better with a strength building workout at the Wally Run/Weagle. Six high impact men took off for the traditional Wally Run. Four men remained for the low impact Weagle. YHC ran, so he was unaware of what the low impact man did for 45 minutes, but all the talk with the inclusion of 120 burpees thanks to the leadership Frac Sac.

    Th Pax closed with the count-off, name-o-rama, and prayers lifted up especially for Kimchi as we pray for the peace and grace of God to comfort his family during this time of loss.
