Celebrating another trip around the sun

/in , /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , ,

Having survived another trip around the sun, I set off to Q Disney, while I was weather watching the last couple days it went from no rain to getting soaked to it might rain to it will rain. We ended up with a mostly no raining workout.
FNGs: none
EC: Nemo and Pablo
Warm Up: Quick loop out of the parking lot and back to the flag, with tweaking my calf again. We did 24 Imperial Walkers, 25 Hillbillys  10 Sir Fazio forward and back, 15 daisy pickers, and 10 good mornings.
The Workout:
             Thang 1:  Went to the soccer field, grab a partner, I had set 3 cones out. Partner 1 would do 10 count balls to the wall, 20 shoulder taps, and Peoples chair                                          until their partner gets back. Partner 2 would do 10 merkins, 15 ankle grabs, and 20 squats. We repeated this 3 times adding 5 to the merkins, ankle                                   grabs and squats reps.
              Thang 2: Head to the shelter for some Dora 123. 100 step-ups, 200 dips, and 300 lbc’s.
              Thang 3: One round of 7’s on the parking lot, consisting of Carolina Dry docks and Star Jumps
Mary: Popcorn Mary consisting of Freedy Mercuries, Six Inches, low slow flutter, Side Crunches, WW1’s, and others.
Announcements: Rune sign-ups,  F3 10th anniversary in January
T-Claps (Recognition): Fanny Pack for letting me take his Q spot, Texas Ranger, and his 2.0 seahawk from Carpex for coming out.
Prayer: Pablo’s, Hobo, and Martini families as they deal with loved ones in Hospice.

NMS: Since having found F3 just over two years ago, I am probably in the best shape I have been since my late teen’s early twenties. F3 has changed my and my family’s life for the better, and it means a lot. Thank you.

Doubling Down With QIC Triple Lindy

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Ground Pounder. Triple Lindy wrapped up a successful Q-Swap week with a solid beatdown at South Wake’s only Saturday bootcamp workout. Here’s his account:

Warmup:

-No fng’s and no flag planted at our 7:30 start time so 5 penalty burpees were called to start the morning. Found out there was a flag in the trunk so got it planted and quick mosey around the parking lot. This was the extent of running for the morning.

-Circle up for some south wake style good mornings, side straddle hops, calf stretch, and daisy pickers.

The Thang:

-Mosey over time playground and find a section of bench or concrete wall for Aiken Legs. This is 20 squats, 20 box jumps, 20 lunges, and 20 split jacks.

-circle up for Air-squared. I know how much SW likes clapping, so hold people’s chair with a 20 count seal clap.

-spread out around the circle around the playground. Time for Apple Turnover. Pax to bear crawl halfway around the circle. Once halfway switch to crab walk until complete the circle.

-Partner up. Partner 1 does 10 reps of No Surrender while partner 2 holds back planks. Flip flop.

-still in partners, 1 does 5 pull-ups while 2 does Mike Tysons, which is plank hold against the wall, do a horizontal squat to a merkin. 5 rounds were called.

-empty wheelbarrows were called. Not the best idea at this point of the morning. Pax only made it quarter way around the circle before the Q called an audible.

-Global warming- circle up and side shuffle around the circle with every single pax calling out a 10 count exercise. With 19 Pax in attendance, this sufficiently sucked.

Mary:

Homer to Marge, American hammers, and gas pumpers to bring us to an end.

COT:

Count off, name-o-rama, prayers spoken and unspoken

 

One More Round!

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

YHC has been commuting all week to CarPex and this would be the final round. No one had signed up to Q Phoenix as of last Sunday so Sliderule and I decided to co-q it. However, he could not make it happen with a new baby not cooperating. YHC knew of a fellow HIM that wanted a piece of the action so we were covered. YHC arrived at 0545 to scope out what Phoenix looked like in the gloom. Quickly set up tokens at community center and went to the gathering spot. After a 2+ mile trail run in the dark (stupid), we arrived to a lot filled with PAX ready to work. 1 FNG was present so the disclaimer was given and we were off.

FNGs:
Lobsta (Boston native, navy guy, water, accent from Boston and a lobster…you had to be there)

Warm Up:
Warm up over to community center parking lot where YHC set up floor agility ladders and cones. Two lines went through 3 times for some feet work with hops at the end.
Circle up
Frankensteins x15IC
Bat Wings x20IC (4 exercises)
Imperial Squat Walkers x20IC
Reverse Carolina Dry Docks x10 on Q’s up/down

The Workout:
Mosey to rock pile and grab a token. Head to large field at bottom of THE HILL.
Prisoner get ups with lunges across with rock. Rinse and repeat back across.
WWI’s with rocks x10
Broad jump brockees back across field (broad jump then burpee with rock) Squat hold for 6. R&R back across.
Mosey back to rock pile to return tokens.

Head to back side of community center for some wall work.

Mosey back over to THE HILL
Blackjacks 21’s on the hill with peeping lipsticks (Turkish roll on back then up with a star jump at the bottom, diamond merkins at the top) made it to 10×11 then Q called 20 PL’s at bottom then to top for 1 diamond. No merlot but faintness feelings were strong. Mosey back to flag.

Announcements:
Qswap week continues next week in SouthWake

T-Claps (Recognition):
Joker with a vest, 3 SW crazies running 8 miles to commute to A, All who posted on a Saturday, 4 Ruckers

Prayer:
Skipper’s ruck bday, HowHow mother passed and PAX support for that event, New baby coming soon, Unspoken

YHC thought on the commute this morning about how fast time goes by. The Bible tell’s us that no one knows when the lord will return but he will come quickly. Let’s live in the now and not for what the future holds. Love those around you. Give a hug to those you care about each day. It’s such a blessing to have loved ones in our lives.

Thanks CarPex for hosting such an awesome week with 7 AO’s we all could come together to get stronger. We look forward to having the favor returned next week. And don’t worry about UTI’s comment during the pray Friday. I know you’ll bring it.

BS Out!
