STANDARDS for AO’s (Even UFO)

/in /by

FNG: Doogie!  Welcome

Warm-up: 5:15am sharp (SSH, Good Mornings, WMH, SFAC)

About the time we were doing GM’s and WMH…over 10 PAX were walking into the Warm-up circle.  YHC noticed a lack of urgency for being late.  We continued with the Mission Statement (3 burpee penalty) Tried again with the Mission Statement (3 burpee penalty). Core values 100% (no penalty) About this time based on the honor system of those that walked up late we did a raise of hands and counted by 5 per person late. Late to ME Burpee penalty administered by Q = 55.  Total Burpee Penalty for Standard infraction = 61. (Could be a horrible F3 record to keep)

Hence the PAX were warmed up for a 4 team split.  3 Merkins on the drop and 2 squats on the drop.  2 point scored if inside the goalie box. Lots of great catches, throws, hustle and knockdowns across the board!

Announcements: Q’em all challenge (QAC), Ruck sack for sale to raise money for QAC, Memorial Day Murph (Banana Seat), If your late to an AO…don’t walk.

T-Clapps:

Prayer: Family lost son in car accident (Breach) and strangers need prayer as all humans are dealing with fear and loss.

The Good 😊 and The Bad 😞 at R4TJ

/in , /by

R4TJ was full of surprises this morning – some good and some bad

@Downrange recruited for EC and nabbed YHC and @Sardine for 3 miles :neutral_face:

On the backside of EC we saw @Wild Turkey driving towards Ting :blush:

We also ran past @Yogurt on his solo slushie birthday EC :smiley: :birthday:

@Sardine had to boogie early so we missed him for ME 😥

When arrived at Ting @batboy was there! :blush:

We realized no one had joined for a Ruck or a 3 mile run :sob:

After running EC, YHC realized his 6+ mile route may have been a bad idea :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

We passed @Emeril running near his CrossFit gym :smiley:

YHC called an audible to reduce his 6+ mile route to a 5 mile route :face_exhaling: 😥
The PAX all decided to support me and come along on the shorter route :smiley::fist-bump:

YHC initiated a conversation about a podcast involving “Unauthorized Evacs” :poop1:

@Downrange @Wild Turkey @batboy and @U.T.I. completed the modified ME :partying_face:

Purple Cobra Tabata

4 Purple Cobras trudged their way through a fun-filled Tabata workout that involved strength, cardio, and core workouts. It was tough, but much like the Pens 🐧, these guys don’t give up.

Rock-A-Billy Luck of the Draw at Crazy Ivan

/in , /by

Warm Up: 

  • yogging, good mornings, windmills, sir fazios

The Workout:

Go around the Circle drawing cards from a mishmash of decks I’ve accumulated for workouts.  Not sure if I have ’em all or how many I have.  I dont actually remember the workouts assigned to each suit so this backblast is representative of the Winky I placed on the ground next to the deck.  As a suit is repeated, switch to the alternate workout assigned to each suit.

♠️ Swings \ Around the World
♥️ Rows \ Thrusters
♣️ Goblet Squats \ Figure 8s
♦️ Tricep Extensions \ Overhead Press
🤡 5 Burpees!!!

 

Mary: We went straight through to the end

Announcements:

  • Q ’em all!
  • Run the Quay is not this weekend
  • SpringFest is Saturday 10-4, we do not have a tent but great 2nd F opportunity

FNGs: none

Warm Up: some mosey, stretching, SSH, merkins

The Workout: jogged to the library for warm-o-rama. Easily knocked out the mission statement and five core principles, then ran past a tree with such a sense of purpose that it got scared and just fell over.

Thang 1: 

Partner Dora- team goal of 100 burpees, 200 merkins, 300 Mtn climbers. One partner works on the man goal, other is a rotator. 
Rotator exercises- jog across the back lot, pick a coupon of adequate size, 10 thrusters, 10 curls for the girls, 10 lunges

Dora was almost done, but time was running out, so we moved on to thang 2 after the first group finished the Dora (@bestinshow and @batboy)

Thang 2: 

Group hill suicides. Group one runs to a designated mailbox and back on library hill, group two holds an exercise until the 6 is in.

3 rounds:

Round 1- second mailbox, plank hold
