Welcome FNG ShamWow! – A resident of Holly Springs that enjoys running (who likes running!?) and has a pretty killer pace.  He is a resident of Holly Springs and is in sales.  Our F3 hivemind this morning went down the infomercial path and gave him a name that is “As Seen on TV

The Workout:  Traditional U-Turn 5mi route was mapped and offered and for the masses.  Plenty of turning for the 6 going on along the way.  A few went “off the map” to hit their personal targets.  Great work to all #HIM for braving the below freezing morning.

Mary:  Nope! No Girls allowed.

Announcements:  Nope! and very sorry to have passed over this.  I guess I was getting cold?  Excited to run?  Still really bad at being a Q?  As always keep an eye on your social media platform of choice.  Please toss them out on the BackBlast post.

Prayer:  Again – BAD UTI, BAD UTI – Skipped over Prayer.  It wasnt intentional…  Please know I realized my error when we got back to Starbucks and I did pray for those unspoken prayers since I’m absent minded.  For those things that we should raise up out in the open, please post them on FB/Slack under the BB post so we can pray for them directly.

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

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.
