FNGs: NO SIR

Warm Up: Windmills, Frankensteins, SSH, Irish Potato Pickers

The Workout:  ULTIMATE!  We were down in the pit across from Womble.  Notable MVPs were Breach, Cancun, Maybelline, Redenbacher, Bullseye, and Pumpkin Spice.  Repeated big plays by these PAX.  Overall though this was a great game that was very equally matched.  Who won!?  I don’t remember the specifics but I feel like we all won really.

  • Merkins and Squats were utilized to penalize drops of the sacred frisbee

Mary: NO SIR

Announcements:

  • Be on the lookout for a plan to be hatched to make Wolfie a more prominent member of F3.

  • Pikachu on the new gig.
  • Pikachu and Dauber for making sure we had all the right gear for ultimate.
  • Breach/M4L for finding my key on the field – that could have been bad

Reach out and touch someone (old AT&T slogan)

/in /by

During announcements I closed encouraging everyone to reach out to someone within F3 that may be dealing with an injury or just flat out hasn’t posted to an AO in a while.  I told Saturday’s U-Turn PAX during the month of April I was personally dealing with a toe sprain and I hadn’t posted nearly as much as I would’ve liked to.  Weekends are usually my only time to post at all during the week and I had missed U-Turn and AGS for 2 weeks straight.  It didn’t take long for me to feel disconnected and somewhat distant from my fellow F3 brothers  (both because I hadn’t seen anyone in a while and I had also lost some of my stamina/endurance).  I can only imagine how a long term injury or a long period of time off (for whatever reason) may lead to a PAX feeling embarrassed or shameful to come back and post.  Although we would never shame anyone and we always welcome any man to any workout at anytime I feel its important that we make an effort to reach out to a fellow F3 member that we know is injured, dealing with another issue, or just haven’t seen in a while.  Sometimes a little encouragement can go a long way.

FNGs: none today

Warm Up: quick mosey, 10x Windmills, 10x Daisy Pickers, 10x Imperial Walkers, 10x Frankensteins, 25x-30x Merkins

The Workout: standard U-Turn in reverse (6mi option or 3mi option).  By far an easier route than standard U-Turn due to less hills/elevation.

Mary: ran outta time

Announcements: congrats to Sprinkler’s son graduating high-school!  Upcoming Grasshopper 5K run, 5K walk, & 1mi fun run benefiting Sergeant Rick Leach Sat June 12 here in Holly Springs.  Bed build June 12th.  May challenge continues…

The Workout:

Moseyed to the Bus Drop off. We split up into pairs and then a pair took one of the three islands.

Run in opposite directions around the island. When you met your partner do 7s counting down of Broke Back Shoulder Tap Merkins. Every time you meet you decreased the number. We went down to 1. Once that was wrapped up we did laps around the island. Partner A did bear crawls and Partner B did Lunge walks. When Partner A needed a break Partner B took over the bear crawls and Partner A did lunges. After one lap we switched to Gorilla Walks and Lunges.

Mosey to the wall for mobile balls to the wall. The pax waiting held their Squat Hold. As pax held balls to the wall and moved down the length of the wall.

Moseyed to the playground and split up in three groups. One group went with Emeril to the hill. One group with Flanigan to the play ground and the last group with me to the wall. The hill group was the timer. 5 trips up the hill running backwards. The folks against the wall held squat while lifting up one leg and switching. The playground group did pull ups. Once the 5 trips where completed group one went to the wall. Group 2 to the hill and group 3 to the playground. Repeat until all groups ran the hill.

Then we made our way up the stairs. We then found our original partners and wheelbarrow to the flag pole/stop sign.

Baker’s Dozen at NeedMore Ruck!

/in /by

FNGs:  TWO FNGs compliments of M4L!  Welcome Allen Duncan (50 Floors) and Ken Almonds (Nail Pouch). Sprinkler loved the leadership of Dauber bringing out so many PAX to this forgotten gem in FV!
Warm Up:  After F3 story and introductions and EC (nice work Nemo, Fanny Pack, Breach and Dauber) headed out.
The Workout:  Played the back nine this morning starting off on 9 and 8.  Headed to 1-7 remembering great shots from a long time ago including shots over the pond or a layup by the tree.  I had a tee time at 8:-4 at the Neuse and definitely had golf on my mind. Great mumble-chatter with all the PAX.  Got some grilling tips from Fonzie and shared some parenting advice with Cancun (I hope it was well-received). Stopped at Breach’s for coffee-teria. Thanks brother!  Just a beautiful morning with great fellowship.
Mary:  OYO
Announcements:  See Slack/FB. Get out to HS Food Cupboard on Th.  Ultimate frisbee on Mon at Ting.
T-Claps (Recognition):  All the PAX getting it done in the month of May – great numbers.  Keep raising each other up!  Also Cancun for bringing his adorable 2.0 baby boy out.  Loved hearing his cooing during the trek!
Prayer:  Sprinkler led us out – thank you sir!  Honored to lead! -Dauber

Warm Up:

Light mix of SSH, Good Mornings, HBs, IWs, SFAC, and Squated Morrocan Night Clubs.

The Workout:

Pax counted off by 4 and split into two teams.  1s and 2s on field 1 and 3s and 4s on field 2 for F3 style Ultimate Frisbee.  Every time the frisbee dropped Pax knocked out an exercise; merkins, burpees, squats, star jumps.  The scoring team called out the penalty exercise, which both teams partook.

Mary:

A couple more Good Mornings to stretch us out.
