Tortoise and the Hare:
Pair up!
– One Pax does  Lt. Dans (squat and two lunge walks) – Zombie Walk???
– Other pax does 5 flying squirrels before then running to catch their partner.

We did 1/2 to 3/4 of a lap around the soccer field before I called OMHA.

Dirty Dora:
200 Merkins
300 LBCs
400 Squats

Running partner has to do a flying squirrel or burpee before taking off to run and then at mid-field.

We didn’t finish the squats due to time… We got about 100 in and then fellowship moseyed back to the COT. We squatted while I took the Pax through my message below – maybe got 100 or so more.

Moleskin:

Today was my 354th F3 post in 3 years… My goal when I started was to lose weight. I lost 40 lbs in 4 months when I started in 2019. I kept that off for the rest of the year until the beginning of the next year. I slowly started gaining the weight back. I was getting stronger, but had no goals (like that first year). Covid became a thing and lingered into the next year. Now I am 20 lbs heavier (half way back to what I was when I started). Now, some of that might be muscle from strength training in the gym, but maybe like 2-5 lbs of it (certainly not 20lbs worth). Despite intermittent back problems I have been consistent to show up… but what have I really been doing?

2022 I have goals. I am training for a Savage Race in June. I plan to pick up a random 5K or two… I have a goal to be able to do at least 10 ACTUAL merkins, in a row, without any modification. I may even work to train for a 10K my M always runs in Charlotte in February. Regardless, I have things to shoot for and am working toward those things.

Don’t be how I was in 2020 and 2021… don’t be a Stogie. While consistency can be an awesome thing, it’s not always enough to simply show up.

Thanks to all those who showed up this morning. Hopefully we all got a little better, together.

I’m Stogie, and I’m out!
