PAX: 16-bit, Anchovie, Banana Seat, Cowboy, Doc, Fonzie, Gump, LED, M4L, Pablo, Pac-Man, Particle Board, R22, Stovepipe, Sugar, The Natural, Warbucks

25 PAX make the journey from near and far for the Wednesday AM edition of Q swap week with
Carpex.

QIC: Red Ryder & Rooney

PAX: Burt, Hi-Liter, Nerf, Disco Duck, M4L, The Natural, Pac Man, Particle Board, Pablo, Pivot,

Red Ryder leads the first half. First exercise, Pledge of Allegiance.

Warm Up
Mosey for 1 lap around the tennis courts and circle up for Good Mornings, Sir Fazio Arm Circles
both ways, Overhead claps, Steve Earles, Daisy Pickers, Control Freak Merkins and 10
burpees OYO.

Thang 1
Mosey to the tennis courts and line up on the far left baseline. Tiny 11s, imported from nearby
Churham, call for a modification of the 11s we all know and love. The mode of transportation
from one baseline to the opposite is the infamous Bear Crawl. Following the requisite number
of Scorpion Dry Docks, the PAX Crawl Bear back to the starting point and complete the
requisite number of Monkey Humpers. Upon completion, BTTW until the SIX are all accounted
for. Red Ryder turns the reigns over to Rooney for…

Thang 2
Partner up, with each team grabbing a non-traveling rock. Move to the end of the parking lot
nearest Field 1. Time for Dora – 100 tricep extensions, 200 curls, 300 squats. While partner 1 is
completing said exercises, partner 2 runs to the field 2 scoring booth and back. Repeato until
complete. Return rocks and circle up for…

Mary
A pretty typical 3 minutes of Mary ensues, with Rooney calling some of the most excellent
exicon favorites such as American Hammers and Dying Cockroaches. All was going smoothly
until a very rotten odor, resembling that of dead cow that was left in 105 degree weather for at
least a week, began to emanate throughout the Mary circle. For the first time in known F3
history, fart penalty burpees were called.

Announcements

Clothes and shoes being collected for Healing Transitions, volunteers still needed for A Night to

#QSwapWeek is upon us and with that YHC took up the mantle to kick it off with a proper Carpex inspired beatdown for the South Wake fellas.

A whole mess ‘o guys showed up for EC, and then the rest of the Pax assemble for the ME, 32 by the count (1 FNG in the mix) as all are now physically, mentally, and emotionally part of the greatest free men’s workout in the nation.

Let’s go.

Warm Up:

– Up the back driveway to the lot for GM, SSH, Mountain Climbers into a left arm up and right arm up, merkins to wrap it

– Mosey on over to the back lot and get some curb for Quick feet and curb merkins at 10, 15, 20

The Workout:

– After making our way back through the stadium and to the front lot, partner up for DORA 1-2-3 (100 merkins, 200 squats, 300 LBC’s)

– Oh, almost forgot to mention, YHC is doing the entire beatdown in a 20 lb vest in honor of our Breathtaker Challenge bros. Beefy.

– After the DORA, snake the pax through the lot and get ‘em in a big circle. With help from 1 Carpex bro and 2 South Wake bros, it’s the circle of pain. 10-1 on merkins, squats, LBCs and lunges. But wait… there’s more… back up to 10. Like I said, beefy.

Mary: – Move the pax over to the basketball court for merkins (yes more), box cutters, homer to marge, dying cockroach, bonnies torture and have a nice day. We’re done.
