A small but dedicated group showed up for a no run workout. We had to find other interesting means of locomotion so we switched between bear crawls, lunge walks, and crab walks as we performed sets of merkins, LBC’s, and side-plank-star-crunches. At this point everyone wished we were running instead.
We then grabbed some rocks and did some EMOM with rows, curls, presses, and extensions. A nice walk back to the flag and we were finished.
0.86 well earned miles this morning.
And it was an honor to have Tinkertoy join us for coffee! MIAGD!

Last night YHC dm’d Sbarro letting him know I had an itch to Q if for any reason he didn’t. He was gracious enough to just let me have it so we decided it would be fun if he started the warm up and just tossed me the keys

So that’s what happened! Pax were stunned, shocked, speechless, mindblown (probably) but they played it cool like they were confused or didn’t really care haha!!

Lots of pickles and partner work this morning. Each Thang involved partner work.

We ran pickles in opposite directions as our partners and did partner exercises when we passed by each other:

Pickle 1: 5 Monkey Humpers and then increasing Patty Cake Merkins each time you reached your partner
Pickle 2: Weave the pickles with 5 pickle pounders and then 5 Toddler Squats each time you reached your patner.
Pickle 3: 5 Squat jumps and then 3 Bropees each time.

Back near the flag for a down and back of Duck Walking and Broad Jump Burping.

COT with NoR/CoR/Prayer and Prasies!

Thanks fellas! Great turnout for a hurricane day!! And thanks to Sbarro again for allowing me to steal his Q.

10 HIM tested fate this morning at Jack It Up. The three ECers got a sneak preview, while the rest had to wait. No flag as it was in Spade’s “other truck” so off we go. Mosey down and around the sheep loop. Standard warm-ups then the fun began.

The Wheel of Pain came out of hibernating and was ready to dole out a solid beatdown. Each PAX took a turn with fate and per typical wheel magic we hit every slice. HG gave us the final spin and ‘somehow’ it magically ended up on burpees. Pickle between each round, pax choice, sheep loop or small pickle + plank hold while waiting for the sheep loopers. 5k covered for some, rock solid abs achieved for others.

Odyssey in October, Culture week coming in November.
Prayers for Gravel Mouth’s fire academy test coming up.

Stick around long enough at coffeeteria and you might even get to meet someone considering becoming Senator Mark Kelly’s personal assistant.

12 men joined me for a journey. A journey that went around and back again. There were trials, there were foes, and there were many manholes.

Pledge, mosey to cul-de-sac for warmup where I got reprimanded for my enthusiasm for the side straddle hop. Mosey to the Greenway for 7s of LBC and heels to heaven. Then continued on the journey with indian run. Paused in cul-de-sac to make sure we all made it. Then down into the depths of Lochmere.l golf course Greenway. 20 pushups at each manhole=100 total. Round the way and back up to the flag with star jumps and some fellowship on the way.

Good work men! Honored to lead.

I was not exactly sure what my plan would be but I decided to see how many showed and wing it from there. Mosey began with chatter about pace and headlamps. A standard warmup at a bank. Over to the top lot for 4 corners. Merkins/Squats/lbc/Burpee
5/5/5/5
10/5/5/5
10/10/5/5
10/10/10/5
Recover and mosey to the bottom medical lot/hills. 7’s on the first hill diamond merkins/heels to heaven. Backwards run/sprints on the other hill. Sprints in the connecting lot. Mosey back to the flag for some CORE as requested by Bubba. Popcorn style until 0614 HAND! Greenbow showed up for COT and coffee.

I had to remind myself this morning that we may not always feel up to leading at an AO, at work or even at home. However, F3 has made leading and facing challenges a much easier and repeatable task. I could have stayed in bed or bowed out last minute but I signed up to lead and 14 men showed up to join me. MIAGD!
