Theismann – F3 South Wake

QSWAP DAY 5: UTI ….. FOREVER MORE….

January 10, 2020/in AO Post /QIC: UTI
PAX: 187, Banana Seat, Bedpan, Chicken Little, Disco Duck, Frisco, Full House, Hamm, HoneyComb, Lipstick, Lucky Charms, Lucky Charms (Carpex), M4L, Meat Loaf, Pet Sounds, Pikachu, Schlitz, Sega, Shut In, Side Out, Silver Fox, Skidmark, Term Paper, The Commish, The Joker, Theismann, Triple Lindy, UTI, vanilla, Wahoo, Warbucks, Yogurt

A pre-blast was sent to Carpex and South Wake looking for support for the to-be Q at Dazed and Confused. With the numbers that these two regions have the potential to bring, YHC thought this was an appropriate time to swallow his pride and make the request for a name change. I know… I know… I’m Good Enough, I’m Smart Enough, and Doggone It, People Like Me! But if there was ever a time to get the votes I needed, it would be today. And hey, I’ve heard some of the mumblechatter about South Wake naming. Peeping Tom’s name got shortened to PT when he moved to Carpex – Carpex will be sympathetic to my plight…. right?

1000 HCs were requested, the votes came in…

Carpex –

10 HCs
4 Laughed with me (I think)
1 SC
2 “Peeing” emoji – inappropriate!!! EXACTLY THE SORT OF THING I’M TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM!!! Calm… Calm…
1 “No Entry” emoji – I assume this just means no, I’m not trying to enter anything… Minds in the gutter in this region…

SouthWake

8-ish HCs
A whole bunch of protests – “We Love You UTI… Never change..” stuff like that
A threat that I would be “Getting an English Ripping” – Australians… Am I right?

As 187 commented on the pre-blast, “UTI ….. FOREVER MORE….”

***I had no intention of changing my name. Do we even have 1000 PAX between our 2 regions? If 1000 had HC’d or shown up I might have had to change my name… I mean that would be some vote! This exercise was for fun and a mockery of those posts you often see out on the social medias. I scouted the FB pages of some of my elderly relatives for research and treaded lightly around the ones that focus on serious illnesses. This was my inspiration 😀

EC: Warbucks, Full House, The Joker, 187, Skidmark, Lipstick, Pikachu

The Workout:

Thang 1

Count off 1,2,3

Group 1 Top of the Deck, Star Jumps until relieved
Group 2 Stairs, run to the top to relieve Group 1
Group 3 Bottom of the Deck, WWIIs until relieved

Groups 1, 2, and 3 cycled through this rotation until all 3 groups completed 10 climbs up the stairs

*Flaw in the structure of this, should have created groups of 3 and had them split up into 3 stations, continuing the rotation as a team of 3. T-claps to Shut-In and other PAX that started calling out group numbers as they got to their new stations to help keep everyone moving. Lesson learned for next time 😀

Thang 2

All PAX to the top of the parking deck, line up on the half wall

Bear Crawl the long way down the lot stopping at each light pole for 5 Merkins OYO

T-Claps to Theismann for calling out Chill Cut moves (and not Have A Nice Day) while we brought in the 6. Lucky Charms and Pikachu – you guys are fast on those Bear Crawls!!!

YHC rolled up to the spot rarin’ to go. So much so that YHC locked his keys in his car. Doh! Oh well, F3 starts on time and ends on time, so let’s go!

FNGs: none (I’m pretty sure)
Warm Up: Ran down to Kelly Rd Park, circled up in the parking lot for:
SSH x 25 / Imperial Walkers x 10 / Hill Billies x 10 / Windmills x 10 / Good Mornings x 10
The Workout: Planned on using the baseball diamond for 7 of Diamonds, but Cataracts informed me that the field is probably closed. Modify as needed, so we did 7 of Diamonds around the parking lot. It went a little something like this:
Round 1: 7 Shoulder Taps at each corner, bear crawl on the long stretch, crab walk on the short stretch
Round 2: 14 Pistol Squats at each corner (7R/7L), lunge walk on the long stretch, frong jump on the short stretch
Round 3: 21 Merkins at each corner, lunge walk long stretch, bear crawl short stretch
Round 4: Copperhead Squat at each corner, lunge walks all around
This ate up most of our time, so we moseyed back to start.
Mary: YHC called a plank hold while waiting for the 6. It was apparent that we might be waiting awhile, so an audible for more Merkins was called. Ended up with 3 sets of 10.
Once the 6 was in:
American Hammers x 10
WWIIs (in cadence, ended up with 20)
LBCs x 10
Homer 2 Marge (SW style) x 10
Announcements: Ruck, CPR
T-Claps (Recognition): Slapps for buying me some post-game java.
Prayer: Kingsley for recovery from illness, Yahoo for travel abroad / adoption, praise for Queequeg promotion

Thank you Carpax HIMs for giving me the opportunity to spend some quality gloom time with you. I’ll definitely be coming back!

YHC looked out in the distance and called out Red Ryder’s FJ Cruiser as the end point (150ft); Repeat with partner swap on the way back. 2nd exercise partner 1 air squared at starting line while partner 2 alligator merkins to Red’s FJ Cruiser and run back to start (Both partners do each once) 3rd exercise Bear Crawl Burpees. Each time YHC called out Grizzley, Pax came up from bear crawl and did a burpee. Grizzley was called out to many times to count 🙂 Once we were at Red’s Cruiser, we did Jack Webbs. Thanks to Yogi, we did 1/4 x7 and then Bear Crawl Burpeed back to start. Mosey over to church and grab some wall. YHC had planned for 3 sets of BTTW with Shoulder Taps x10 and People’s Chair x10 but thanks to mumblechatter, we did 5 sets.
Mary: Diamond Merkins x20, LBC’s x20, Pikachu reminded us we didn’t finish the Jack Webs to 10, so we did 8-10 with diamond merkins on set 10, boat cannoes x20, and my favorite diamond merkins x20
