Once he returned, the next PAX who just chose the exercise took off running and the next PAX in line called out and exercise. Round 2, running around 1st and 2nd island.

5:25am and I was getting a bit concerned that the fartsack had conquered everyone. Not a minute later when a convoy of cars pulled into the lot and the gloom was alive and well. Florence had the clown car rolling with Hardy and an FNG while Oboe and Wallaby were following in hot pursuit. I’ve learned in my short time as an F3 Pax that planning is everything when you are Q. You must have a plan for good weather as well as rain, and you may also need to plan based on the size of the group…..but I hadn’t taken into account having an odd number of PAX show up. We had 7 and a poop-eater.
FNGs: Welcome Sprocket
Warm Up:
SSH X20, Groin squat stretch (10 second silent count), Frankenstein X15, Windmill X15
The Workout:
Thing 1: Variation of Running With 100 Reps
Mosey across the parking lot and over the bridge to just outside the behind the baseball fields for Hillbilly squats X25. Then did an Indian Run around the baseball field to the parking lot on the opposite side of the park and stopped for merkins X25, followed by a burpee indian run back over the small bridge and stopped for low slow flutter X25. Then back on our feet for regular indian run down to the pit for overhead claps X25.
Thing 2:
Group divided into 2 for a little competition. Cones were placed at the starting line which was roughly 40 yards in front of the soccer goals. PAX formed 2 lines parallel to each other behind the starting line. 2 soccer balls were placed between the PAX and the soccer goals, roughly 20 yards from the soccer goals. Both teams of PAX got into Chill Cut position. When the “Go” signal was given, the last PAX in line jumped up and broad jumped over his teammates and dropped into Chill Cut until all PAX had cycled through. The last PAX (which was the first PAX originally at the front of the line) races to a soccer ball and goes for the score. Team that scores first gets a point. Losing team did 5 burpees OYO. The team with one less PAX had one member go twice to make it a bit more even. 8 cycles were completed with a final score of 5-3. Team 2 took the victory (Florence, Snap, Wallaby).
Thing 3:
Just enough time for 50 dips (gotta work the tri’s). Teams stayed in 2 groups. Team 1 ran backwards up the paved hill and back down the hill facing forward while Team 2 ran up the stairs and back down, then 25 dips. Then the teams swapped the stairs for the hill and did one more round before it was time to head back for Mary.
