Big crowd for MRM, including 4 pups (Larry, Green, Maverick/F3 Goose and Stingray‘s pup whose name escapes me). Good mumble chatter amongst the group, including the first day away from the 2.0 for Alright Alright‘s M, moving and all that fun, Hilton Head and I’m sure other stuff I missed as Larry was much more interested in the smells than keeping up with the other ruckers. A lot of discussion about poor Green and how he would probably crush the DT route since he was ready to be let loose

Beginning of the 2022 Mother’s Day Bod

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA:
PAX: Avril, Draper, Gold Digger, Maverick, Meatball, Silent Bob
QIC: Teasip/Icebox

AO: FPH #doubletime #mrm
F3 DISCLAIMER & WELCOME: Given with COIVD Disclaimer

WARM-O-RAMA:
Chatter about Cane’s (see NMM for more detail)

THA THANG:
DT’ers ran two loops with 20 upright rows with coupons in between laps

Ruckers rucked up and down the big hill, with descending T Merkins at top and descending reverse crunches at bottom. Started at 20 and got to 17

MOLESKIN:
Several of the PAX got concerned when YHC started pulling out his coupons, but YHC explained it was just for between laps for the DTers. There was discussion about Avril’s Mother’s Day gift idea to Slippy and how he was a big fan and went “once a month.” As he was challenged by Draper about how good it is, Avril explained he really only goes for the sauce, as the chicken is simply the medium through which the sauce is delivered to his taste buds. 

YHC wasn’t sure of mumblechatter on the run, as Meatball, YHC, and Draper all ran separately with Avril and Gold Digger running and chatting together.

Icebox was sure to mention that the hills with the exercises led to him and Silent Bob “hoofing it pretty good”, but this was “a better beatdown than Rump’s bear crawl vision quest” 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. F3 McKinney Launch
2. Memorial Day Carry the Load

The Return of the Sweetest of Babies

AlrightAlright Sweet Baby PowPow joined YHC and Mav for this AM’s ruck

Swiper teamed up with Oatmeal for Double Time action

AA texted me while he was clearing the mechanism asking what the plan was for the ruck. Seemed like he was interested in accelerating his rucking/baby bjorn’ing skills so told him we’d do the don’t get lapped challenge

F150 also texted me this morning while he was clearing the mechanism, but that was about taking a picture, must have needed more time to clear since he didn’t make it to MRM

Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes Sweet Baby pulled up to MRM like it ain’t no thang, PowPow was so jazzed to see him that he ditched the jogging shoes for the ruck and combined forces with the Sweetest of Babies.

Oatmeal thought he was going to run alone a la the last two Stingray vision quest rucks but Swiper came in to give him some company

The runners did some hill work so the don’t get lapped challenge wasn’t as exciting

Ruckers split up into two groups, the idiots running with rucks and the non idiots normal rucking.

Everyone finished up with 5-10 minutes to spare so we did an AMRAP of 5 Special Sauce horizontal rope pull-ups (to be Lexicon’d later), 5 LBC’s, and 5 crab cakes

Mav was pretty pissed to be tied up during the AMRAP

Oatmeal led a great COT where the PAX opened up with prayer requests

MRM is Back!

#backblast

AlrightAlright and Plus One joined YHC and Maverick for this AM’s ruck. Temp was awesome, company even better.

Topics of conversation covered who’d you want to see 5 days in a row, Pepper was high on the list, but I’d love to see anyone 5 days in a row these days…Iron PAX cheaters and the shoulder/quad obsessed Greenwood PAX…who would be on the F3 Dallas All-Star Ruck team (where were you this AM F150??)…the meeting Oatmeal and I need to have with the M’s so we can make show up on the same day and make the Lindsley Park AO a reality

Good pace today, 15:21, motivated by not wanting to be lapped by PowPow

MRM is back, look forward to the coming weeks!
