PAX: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Sprung out of bed and was ready roll, and no better way than have the opportunity to have your teenager run into the workout. Would never imagine doing that in the past. So thank you to this amazing group of guys-#goobers/ #fritter
Yellow card and I had discussed the game plan for the workout. Had a friend drop a cooler- full of drinks ( water/ Gatorade) so yhc can take to workout but we were planning on running 3.6 miles from home front to PT, so that did not happen 🤪. Texted emeril to grab/ bring some water and of course he stopped and got some cheap ass water. Thank you
Parking lot was full and we rolled in right at 0523, rest of the 10 guys were just coming back from the EC run.  Thx, grabbed 2 tires and rolled them just like he use to back in the day, as a toy, all he could afford while in 3rd world country.
Set the stage/ tires- dawg # brought the rope( thank you). Dawg was very excited about carrying tires and ropes etc but he had no idea his perfect workout may not happen ..

Fartsackers: dumbo/ wacka wacka/ wallaby- pablo knew it would be a hard workout so he sent his M on a work trip – (great excuse).

EC: Dawgpound, Buford, Cowboy, Emeril, BB-8, Brony, Blue Hen, Banana Seat, Peak Weak, LED, H1N1

FNGs: BB-8
Warm Up:

It is 0530- disclaimer was done and we ran to storage unit and did the following warmup exersice.
Sshx15, smurf jacksx15, sir fazio x 15(backward/ forward), imperial walker/ hillbillies x 15.
The Workout:

We lined up went for a ‘burpee mile’ waited for the 6th ofcourse through the hood that we never visit and behind aviator etc. we never know, we may pick a guy up. We also did burpees in honor of Bernie, in front of aviator bar (that fun night after the ruck). Emeril announced that we were 20 mnts in and we did the count off, stove pipe thought 10 count.. but no No no, no 10 count, this is not a (DD) workout, so we did 5 burpees to punish our selves. We also did 5 burpees since dumbo fartsacked and 5 in honor of my good friend puddles.
Break off in group of 5, one guy pulled the tire/ carry the tire and flipped the tire, while rest of the group did Ab exersices.
We still had 15 mnts, run to the tennis courts, of course dawg was salty but not as salty as he was at whiplash, since he did not get his fix of tire flipping-

Message:

Naked mole skin-

Bet you guys didn’t know you got a midget lesson this morning. Life lesson-
You have a plan- You think things are set ( tires/ rope/ all the good stuff you asked for) and than someone takes you down a road where you have to do things that you hate( burpees)or do not like but you have to because you are dealt with those cards and you thought you had everything lined up. But guess what you are with a group of guys that every .10/ mile waiting on you cheering you on, looking out for you.. you take a longer road but you are a little bit stronger- storm of life has passed and day light has come, now go enjoy the tires..
For you dawg 😄

Always honor n fun to be with you guys
#keep pushing the boulder

EC: LED, Fonzie, Cupid

FNGs: None today

I was excited to be back from vacation and getting to Q Mutiny on a somewhat less humid morning.  When I pulled into the parking lot I was surprised to see a good number of vehicles already parked, I was assuming that LED’s post of an earlier start time and more miles for EC got some Pax out of bed, but I soon realized that some of the vehicles belonged to some early birds working the track. Sadly they were not F3 and I was thinking that maybe we’d be our regular group of 6-8 but as 5:30 approached more cars started to pull in for a total of 14 Pax and, since I didn’t put up a pre blast, at 5:29 Banana Seat yells out “ Who’s Q-ing this thing?” I step forward and circle everyone up for warm up.

Warm Up: SSH, Cherry Pickers, Fozie Arms Circles, Stretches, Lap around the track

The Workout: Told the Pax to partner up, P1 had to go to rock pile to pick a rock while P2 did squat hold. Decided to do a Diego, which is like a Dora but just a harder.  The exercises consisted of 100 merkins, 150 overhead press with rock, 200 LBC, 250 curls for the girls with the rock and 300 squats with the rock. After picking up the 6 and returning the rocks we moseyed over to the tennis courts for some suicides which consisted of bear crawl to end of first court to do 5 burpees and then crawl bear back, then sprint to the end of second court do 5 burpees and run backwards back.

Mary: American Hammers, Homer to Marge, LBC, Pickle Pounders, etc……

Announcements: Follow Crablegs on social media as he travels across the country to different baseball stadiums on ALS baseball tour

Skidmark was scared so he did the right thing by not posting in the gloom- Midget has been at this f-3 thing for almost 4 yrs now and 1st time been consistent with exercise. Thanks for this great group of guys that keep me motivated, engaged and accountable.

Pax of 20 showed up and Flanagan was looking for an easy Q by Dumbo but was told by UTI that Midget had the Q.
Disclaimer was read.

FNGs: Welcome Tetanus!

EC: M4L, Yellow Card, Emeril, Pikachu, Dawgpound, Cowboy, Pablo and Dumbo (rolled in hot at 0517 due to too much bourbon)

Warm Up: There was none.

The Workout: We took off right on time and carried on where we left on Saturday(Whiplash). Stopped at the first turn off at Ting and divided into groups of 4 for Indian Runs. 9 burpees were performed while PAX got in the 4 man Indian group. The goal today was to get to know the small group and what kind of impact f-3 was making in their everyday life. Each time we stopped, until we came to main event ‘Arctic cooler’, we did 10/10/5 (squats/hand release merkins/ burpees). There were 5 stops along the way.

We lost Dumbo and t-claps to Lipstick for staying with dumbo (too much vacation bourbon).

Main event was a 0.41 loop where 2 guys go in opposite directions and perform patty cake merkins when they meet. We did this until 6:17. Chips / Yellow card/ Banaseat/ Poponski called a few Ab exercises while we waited on the 6th.
Indian run with your group back to the flag-
