The timer is set for one hour.Ā You must keep track of your points for a total tally at the end of the hour.Ā If the exercise is not completed before the timer runs out, you do not get ANY points for completion. During the workout, the PAXs that are running can pick up any man’s six on any of the EVEN exercises.Ā (*note* If you are bear crawling and get tired you cannot walk around the track to complete the 400m. It’s a 400m bear crawl…not a 100-meter bear crawl and 300-meter walk).

The Workout: The mumble chatter was rolling this morning, you would have thought we were in Carpex!
We started out on “that hill” with 7s. Squats at the top, WWIIs at the bottom. Mosey down, bear crawl up.
Moseyed over to the wall behind the stores for 2 rounds of People’s Chair and Balls to the Wall. Then we grabbed two palm-sized rocks for 2-3 rounds (bad memory) of Curls for the Girls, overhead press and Ruh Rohs. Someone said something about being cold and apple fritters and YHC almost lost his cadence.
Returned our rocks back to PRECISELY where we found them and moseyed around the back side of the shopping center, stopping for a few copperhead squats (in cadence).

AGS 12-4-22 F3 Magic
/in Any Given Sunday /QIC: YogurtPAX: Gillette, Jellybeans, Pikachu, Sunshine, Tigger, Woody, Yogurt
Sometimes everything just comes togetherāthis was one of those times. Knowing I was bringing and FNG, I grabbed the empty AGS Q spot. Really wasnāt sure who was gonna show except Pikachu, who was a quick HC upon seeing the route. Todayās route: Headed toward my favorite hilly neighborhood, Sunset Bluffs, which is past Bass Lake. It was not until I got on the run mapper did I realize a critical connection from Sunset Bluffs to Bass Lake Road. Now to execute.
FNG and I left the neighborhood at 0550. I was pleased to see @Gillette, @Jellybeans, and @Sunshine ready to go. @Woody had already grabbed a now-routine EC! Pikachu rolled in on two wheels.
I prepared a 4-mile and 6-mile loop, expecting the group to split up. But, at the split point, Woody had already āencouragedā Jellybeans to āgo the distance.ā And next thing you know, weāre all climbing the hills in the Bluffs. Jellybeans had just started F3 only a few weeks ago, with zero running. Iām not even sure how many ECs he had completed. Woody hung with him the whole time, encouraging and talking up running. At the end of the 6-mile run, Jellybeans was stoked and exclaimed, āThatās the most fun I’ve ever had running!ā How about that?!
Pikachu, my FNG Dylan, and I bonded with running events and speed. These two carried a 7:30 pace most of the time. Appreciate Pikachu embracing him on behalf of the F3 community.
We made the connection at Goosehaven, over to Bass Lake Road. This makes a nice alternative loop around Bass Lake. Canāt believe I had not run or ridden this considering multiple trips to Sunset Bluffs both on foot and on wheels.
When I wasnāt running with the speedsters, I had the chance to catch up with Gillette and Sunshine. Great stuff. Gillette and I learned that Sunshine is a powerhouse on the hills! I said something about climbing up the Bass Lake Road hill and next thing I knew, Sunshine took off, climbing! He did not stop til we got to the top! BAM! He pulled me up the whole way.
Welcome FNG @Tigger! After he said, āRoll Tide,ā it was clear he needed an opposite-mascot name (Alabama vs. LSU). Plus, he runs like Tigger!
Notable achievements: Jellybeans distance PR! Woody 1,000 miles in 2022!
Finally, at COT, Woody shared that he observed certain behavior from one of his sisters over Thanksgiving. He requested prayers and guidance in approaching her and the issue.
