/in /by

Wow!!! What a day! A couple of misses at the Fitness test. I went to bed and there was one more HC then when I woke up. Red must have taken a mental health day and went scuba diving somewhere. Dumbo was fighting the jambalaya early in the morning. Pablo overslept. Emeril kept Midgets bottle and we all got to drink it at Panera Bread.

Congratulation Katniss and Snap for posting at all four fitness tests. The following improvements were made.

Skidmark increased his score from 3.47 to 4.5. I believe though he had breathtaker on the first time.
Snap went up from his last time. 3.79 to 4.16
Dawgpound went up from 3.05 to 3.37

Great first time scores for the following:
Goldilocks: 3.26
Hardy: 3.68
Emeril: 3.89
Pikachu: 4.79

Pikachu set a new record at the fitness test.
Emeril has the record for the Fritter Goobers. If only Pablo posted.

4 pax weren’t scared of David Goggins or the rain when they committed to Casino Royale this morning. The mumble chatter was at a minimum but was powerful. Key takeaways from mumble chatter this morning. 1. If you have a website you are an organization. Guess I need to take down Skidmark.com 2. LED coaches kids  3. That’s all I remember because we were too busy working out.

FNGs: None
Warm Up: None, we got right to it.
The Workout:
1. Started with 2 minutes of SSH followed by 2 minutes of merkins. We did this for 16+ minutes.

50 CC LBC’s
25 CC Low Slow Flutter

We then held plank for 10 minutes doing various exercises such as mountain climbers, 1 arm plank, plank jack. We practiced being mentally strong while in plank so Pax were asked to repeat the F3 mission and we named the core principles in order.

Was that a snake…nope that was flatulence

**I would like to open up this BB by apologizing to @Full House and explaining the above title…please forgive me Full House!!!  About 3-miles into our 6-mile workout I was running with Alpine and my stomach was giving me some awful pain.  I told Alpine my stomach was jacked and to keep going and I would catch up.  I stopped dead in my tracks and ripped one for what felt like 10-seconds.  Well it wasn’t until the end of the workout that Full House mentioned that he was trailing us during the run and thought I had stopped to look at a snake or something.  As soon as he ran through the exact spot where I had unleashed my stomach pains, he took the brunt of the aftermath.  I cannot not apologize enough @Full House and I can’t believe I’m mentioning this in a BB that will forever be posted.  I will be hanging my head in shame every time I see you for quite some time my man.

FNGs: none

Warm Up: 10x Daisy Pickers, 10x Good Mornings, 25x shoulder-width Merkins, 10x Imperial Walkers, 10x Hillbillies, 10x Fazio Arm Circles (Fwd & Rev), 25x wide positioned Merkins

The Workout: 3PAX prepping for BRR ran 3-miles with post-stretching, 4PAX ran 6miles on the “standard route”: Start off leaving Womble with a R on Stinson, R on Bass Lake, L on Salem Ridge, L on Linksland, R on Holly Springs, L on Raleigh, L on Grigsby all the way to the backside of Womble, L into the lot behind the ball fields, R at the playground, Finish back at the parking lot

Sunday Funday

/in /by

FNGs:

None

Warm Up:

10x Fazio Arm Circles (Fwd & Rev), 10x Imperial Walkers, 10x Hillbillies, 10 Daisy Pickers, quick mosey up and down the parking lot to include butt-kickers, high-knees, karaoke to the right and left

The Workout:

4PAX completed “I Believe It’s Jogging…or Yogging…It’s a Soft ‘J’ Virtual 5K” (@LipSync, @RogerRoger, @Dauber, @Forceps).  7PAX completed the “standard route” of 5-6mi at AGS that I learned from @Mookie, which is leaving Womble, R on Stinson, R on Bass Lake, L on Salem Ridge, L on Linksland, R on Holly Springs Rd, L on Raleigh Rd, L on Grigsby, and follow Grigsby to the backside of Womble and enter the 2nd entrance back to Womble.  This ends up being around 6miles, give or take a little depending if you’re the “6” or you’re picking up the “6”.

When YHC and fellow 6PAX finished our 6mi jog, the 4PAX who completed the “Kind of a Big Deal” Virtual Run https://runsignup.com/irun2stayclassy were already in their T-shirt’s, wearing their medals, sipping cans of Coors light, and had already taken a memorable group picture with the classic AGS sunrise in the background (Photo available on Slack 1stf channel at 9:27am Sunday 8/30)

It was a beautiful day today and the humidity felt like half of what it was the morning prior…thank you to all of those who came out and joined.

Prayer:

Gave thanks for bringing us together for fitness, fellowship, and faith {F3}, as well as keeping us safe Sunday morning.  We prayed that God will look over our friends, family, and loved ones.  We also prayed God to give strength and comfort to those struggling from addiction, disease, mental illnesses, and sickness.  Lastly we prayed God will look over those who have lost their way and we ask that they are given the strength to once again follow His path.

Schweddy U-turn – Lipstick’s soul mate spotted

/in /by

Holy schweddy balls it was a hot U-turn on Saturday as 12 PAX literally sweated their balls off over five miles.  Warm up consisted of some good mornings, IW, daisy pickers, windmills and 5 burpess OYO courtesy of Lipstick’s alarm clock malfunction.

Fortunately for the PAX there was a late run site to behold as two ladies apparently decided to be miserable as well Saturday morning.  We made our way down Green Oaks only to see one of them emerge from a construction port-a-potty…could it be?  Lipstick’s sister from another mister?  Perhaps dare I say his deuce dropping soul mate?  His poop partner?  His BM buddy?  For those that missed it, all I can say is this chick could really “run for the john”.  Truly a site to behold.

Announcements – mulching around Bass Lake is getting close to wrapping up, check out the sign up sheets to help support.  Leadership met on Wednesday this past week to discuss 3rd F opportunities, see Slack for details.

Prayer requests – Skidmark’s neighbors daughter who is recovering from a copperhead bite, UTI’s brother as he is on the mend.
