The Flipping Bird

FNGs: none

PAX: @Martini, @Finkle, @Warbucks, @Farva
Warm Up: OYO stretches
The Workout: We did 5ish miles on our new route around FQV labeled the Bird.  We were flippin’ all over the place this morning.  @Martini was excited to run 5 miles since last night he hated running 3 miles lol.  Unfortunately one of the roads on the has been taken out so we went over the railroad track to create the middle finger.  @Warbucks will be looking on ways to improve this new addition running in the Quay.   https://www.plotaroute.com/route/1946230?units=km

The Workout: I stole the first part of this workout from one of the recent Crossfit WODs. Merkins and Squats. Reps of 40/30/20/10 for a total of 100 each. Recover each round with a mosey around the tennis courts. We were ahead of schedule, just being the two of us, so I added on 7s on the hill with WWIIs at the bottom and shoulder taps at the top. YHC lost count and it ended up being 11s, which worked out nicely.
Mary: LBCs, Homer-to-Marge, Reverse LBCs, American Hammers, finished up with some yoga.
Announcements: South Wake Picnic and Holly Springs July 5th volunteers needed.
T-Claps (Recognition): 16-Bit for his accountability.
Prayer: 16-Bit’s daughter, Stubs
Moleskin: In my past, I’ve tried to pick up and stick to an exercise routine. It would last for a couple of weeks, maybe a month at the most. But it was inconsistent and didn’t last. F3 has been the one thing to stick and I’ve been getting out into the gloom for a little over three years now. The accountability and camaraderie are large contributors to that. Hold your fellow PAX accountable. In doing so, you’ll be holding yourself accountable as well.

Exploring that whole parking lot at Purple Cobra!

FNGs: None
Warm Up: SSH, SFAC, Windmills, Squats
The Workout: Mosey to the church!

On the way we did 35 dips IC (my shoulders), 20 irkins IC.

At the church, we split up into groups and did a modified set of 7s. One group started with 7 turkish getups, the other group started with 7 squats. We counted down from there by running to the other side of the parking lot – every time we passed each other we did 7 merkins.

After this, we did 3 rounds to the other side of the parking lot. One group ran, the other group did an exercise. Planks, LBCs, and then homer to marge.

Finally, we did one round of bear crawls around the last side of the parking lot (thanks Bondo!) while the other group did pickle pounders.

Back to the HT parking lot for one round of BTTW and one round of preacher’s chair, during which there was one particularly nasty fart that actually made YHC stop his counting. We hustled back to the flag and that was that!

Mary: No time

T-claps: Wallaby! Nice to see you back out, brother!
