Overdrive had a visit from Richard Simmons

So Glass Joe texted yesterday letting me know he was down for the count and needed coverage for his Q this morning, so off I went to bring the pain to the Union County crew.

I pre blast tweeted no Richard Simmons after a Snowman led beatdown at Outland last week while the “spirit” of Richard Simmons seem to take over his mouth and body. Little did I know The Late Show would actually be early and dressed like Richard Simmons for the Halloween downPAINment this morning! He complained about being too cold in the tight short shorts and womanly shirt prior to the workout. I would have told him to suck it up but I was not comfortable and was totally fine with him getting changed. For everyone’s benefit there are no pictures either.

Sooo, here is Turnpike but where is everyone else?!
Bah! Let’s go!

Moleskin

The fartsack was strong this morning for some who were expected but unseen, others must have been saving energy for the walking & candy eating they will be doing tonight.

Richard Simmons was a sight, not sure if that would be considered comedy or horror. Great job to the PAX today though!

Announcements:
Tomorrow is the virgin Q of Turnpike! Who happens to be working until about 11:30 tonight so no excuses tomorrow morning at Outland, if he can be there so can you! Besides you will need to work off all the candy you will be eating tonight!

Please keep Electric Slide & more specifically his wife in your prayers as she just had surgery, I don’t want to put all the details here without his permission but contact me if you want more info.

Tomorrow at Outland, Drop Thrill is out so I will collect any shoes if you have them.

If I forgot something, give a shout out in the comments!

COT

THE MOLEY RINGWALD-SKIN

An almost negligently quick look at the things that were:

  • Lobster Roll’s Shoe Incentive Plan leaves something to be desired. Beatings will continue until morale improves.
  • Semi Gloss and Uncle Leo with a bedhead showdown.  6-8 with the afro.
  • Semi-kotters to Semi Gloss, posting after stuffing Little Gloss full of pureed pork rind baby food and making a dash for the door.
  • Header finally starting to read the fine print on his twitter bet, but gamely getting a head start on coming Sleeveless Winter.  F3/Poker pax want to know if you have any openings, say every night of the week?  #Baby—> #Candy
  • Backwards Grandma is not pleasant.
  • The Royals lost the other night but there’s always next year and/or generation….
  • Based on twitter traffic last night, I’ve come to learn that the Panthers stink and Cam is loser, but he has some cool cleats.
  • Horsehead claims to have posted 10 days in a row.
  • There were no group hugs.

You pagan diabetics have fun tonight. We are going bowling.

The 16 lads that showed up tested their chesticles to see what they were made of…exhaustion was acheived, not sure about the exuberation. It is always fun to throw something competitive in to make sure people are pushing to their running limit. I will say, I saw some boys flying today fo sho! Even the big men were hauling up and down the hills. Very impressive effort today, the Kevlar boys always drop the hammer! We did a little shuffling of the teams part of the way through to even out a few of the boys who seemed to always only have the 20 Diamond Penance. Thanks for the honor to lead as always, you men of Area 51 are why I come out each time!

Shoe Drive – bring your shoes to Shoe Shoedio

Over 2 walls but NOT 3

Over the wall

3 brothers met at 0515 at the Vine Restaurant at the Ballantyne AO on Halloween to prepare for the mud run next spring. Here’s what we did:

The Thang:

We crossed Ballantyne Commons to the parking deck behind the movie theatre. Run up to the top with a few burpee and merkin pain stations along the way. At the top of the deck, we jumped over the 4 foot walls that run up the deck (about 10 in total) and ran down the stairs.

Run down Ballantyne Commons, east with some bench jumps and lunge walks thrown in.

Turn left on Ballantyne Corporate Pl then crossed the street to the premier parking deck #1.

Run up to the 2nd level of the Premier parking deck and 5 Burpees OYO. Run up and around to the 3rd level 5 Burpees OYO, Run up to the 4th level 5 Burpees OYO, run up to the 5th level.

Line up for sprints across the deck with 2 – 5 foot wall jumps and run back to the starting point X 2. The Q made it clear that the PAX should only jump over 2 walls, but NOT 3. The 3rd wall is the edge of the parking deck and drops off 5 stories to a nice patch of grass at the bottom. The PAX then headed down the stairs back to Ballantyne Commons heading east.

We stopped for a few merkins and headed down the back trail west towards premier parking deck #2 and we ran around towards the top of the deck. Line up for sprints across the deck with 2 – 8 foot wall jumps and run back to the starting point X 2. Again, the Q made it clear that the PAX should only jump over 2 walls and NOT 3. The PAX then headed down the stairs down Ballantyne Corporatte Pl across the bridge and to the athletic trail. Along the way, we stumbled across a doe and her 2 fawns.

On the athletic trail, we did 3 sets of low arm walks and 3 sets of high arm walks. Q attempted a few muscle ups at the suggestion of Champagne after the Spartan Race, but that turned out to be a major fail. Need to practice my form. Head to the COT around Lock Ness.

Moleskin:

3 PAX proved they were Brave enough to handle Madame’s challenge this morning. I’m guessing the men were scared of ghosts and goblins that were out getting ready to scare the children of Ballantyne tonight. We ended up covering 4.5 miles in the hour and climbing about 20 walls that ranged from 4 – 8 feet tall.

Always a pleasure leading the men in the gloom.

Announcements:

Spring Mud Run sign-ups aavailable soon. Build your team.

Bring your old shoes next week to donate them to the men’s shelter. Need clean, men’s athletic shoes.

Great work this morning men!

 

No Haggis, No Bricks, No Problem

With our fearless site leader out, the virtual shovel flag was planted and 17 of F3’s finest shook off the Panther lose and met in the gloom for their weekly dose of Centurion.   The clock hits 5:30 and Haggis is not to be found so off we go with YHC making it up as we go (like I do even when I know if have the Q).

The Thang:

Jog to small parking lot for COP

SSHX20, 10 hand release burbees OYO (HRBOYO), MC’sX20, 9 HRBOYO, Peter ParkersX20, 8 HRBOYO, Slow SquatX20, 7 HRBOYO, Wide arm merkinsX15, 6 HRBOYO, jumping lunges 20 total movements, 5 HRBOYO

Jog to pool parking lot for triple nickle with merkins at top and squats at bottom

  1. Round 1 – bear crawl
  2. Round 2 – crab walk
  3. Round 3 – bear crawl
  4. Round 4 – crab walk
  5. Round 5 – burpee broad jump

Jog to shopping center at corner of Carmel and 51 for Jamboree special – run the steps with 11 HRBOYO at the top, 10 in the lot and keep running the circuit going down the ladder to 1 (6 total trips – switched to flying squirrels at 7)

6MOM – low dolly, high flutter, Freddie Mercury, low flutter all X20

Jog to tables at front of school for step ups, dips, derkins

  1. Round 1 -10 of each
  2. Round 2 – 10 of each
  3. Round 3 – 15 of each
  4. Round 4 – 20 of each

Naked moleskin:

A few of the new guys didn’t know what a Haggis is and were not sure he/it really exists (only 1/3 of Americans visiting Scotland believe it) but will have to wait for the next time to confirm as we headed out without our man on site.   Hoping he is ok and just had too much fun watching the American version of football.

Frasier and Checkpoint were out front for the stair work but I’m not going to give them a Larry Bird since they are not the slow like LB.   I would have given them a LB if they had lapped me.

Mermaid gets the big brick next time for pointing out that Abacus beat me in the triple nickle (#motivation for next time – never let your little brother beat you).  Abacus is getting stronger and faster so not as easy as it was a year ago.

Lots of new faces to Centurion this am – great to see you guys and hope you got your money’s worth (even with a substitute Q). Strong effort by all.

Announcements:

Joe Davis memorial run.   See F3 Nation home page for pre-blast and link to sign up.   Double down opportunity with 10k and 5k separated by 30 minutes so you can do both.

Tutoring started up and we can always use help.  Contact me at pchepul@gmail.com if interested in learning more.   Otherwise, find another way to make #Impact either by helping out in other efforts or starting something up on your own #starfish, #reverseflow #ISI

Please remember to bring old shoes next week.

As always, it was an honor to lead such a great group this am

COT

Molesine:

This workout was Varsity level and everyone killed it today!  The mix of Kettle Bell, Gear and Cardio was a receipe that really pushed the Pax to dig deep and simply move weight. 

As it was so dark, it was tough for YHC to see and point out individual performances.  Normally I’d have more to post in the Moleskin, however relying on the teams to comment below about what they whitnessed today.

Again, thank you for posting with us and it is an honor to lead such a strong group of men.

Respectfully, The Hoff

It was 1985, and it was a glorious year in the Heartland

Now for a stroll down amnesia lane.

It was 1985.

The Kansas City Royals were World Series champs, the Monsters of the Midway were on their way to the Super Bowl title, Ronald Reagan (of Tampico, Illinois) was in the Oval Office.  Glorious!

Wham! had 2 of the top 3 hits of 1985….ok not so glorious.   And who could forget the #85 song in the Billboard Top 100 of 1985 – “Who’s Holding Donna Now?” by Debarge….?  Answer:  Hopefully absolutely everyone forgot that…until reading this.  However, I’m pretty sure TR has that one among his voluminous iTunes library.  One additional musical note to mention in keeping with the Heartland theme —  Champaign, Illinois’ REO Speedwagon had the #13 hit (YHC’s favorite #.  That’s the #, not the song) —  “Can’t Fight This Feeling”

Ok….enough of that.  Speaking of fighting feelings….YHC felt like fartsacking quite frankly.  And after two late nights of watching my beloved Kansas City Royals – that’s exactly what I would have done had Bugeater (fellow Heartlander from Omaha, NE – home of the KC Royals’ AAA Storm Chasers and Alex Gordon) not tapped me to Q the Thursday painfest warmly known as Hydra.

So after logging about 3 hours and 47 minutes of sleep, interrupted constantly by a nearly 15-year old dog that is taking dog years off YHC’s life, I jumped out of the fartsack and headed over to Olde Providence Elementary to cook up some pain stew for the pax.

The Stew:

SSH x 25

H-R Merkins x 25

IW x 25 (Gummy asked what muscle group(s) IW’s are supposed to work?  Answer: none really.  It’s just mindless time for meaningless mumblechatter and for YHC to mentally compile a weinke.)

MC x 25

Run 1/4 mile to entrance of Chadwyck

Plank up.

CDD x 20 or so

Run 1/4 mile to Chadwyck Commons

LBC x 25

Run 1/8 mile to Ashridge Lane (really should be named Ashridge Hill)

Plank up. Run to top of hill. 10 burpees OYO. Run down. Plank.  Run up. 15 CDDs OYO. Run Down. Freddy Mercury x 15 IC. Run Up. 10 burpees OYO. Run down. Plank. Run up. 13 Knee-ups IC. Run Down. Plank. Run up. 15 H-R Merkins OYO. Run down.

Not sure that was the exact order of events on Ashridge Hill, but it was something like that.

Indian Run to Bugeater’s front yard, which is well decorated for Halloween, by the way.  YHC had the pax lined up facing Chez Bugeater.  With ghost in tree hanging to YHC’s left, we did 10 slow count jump squats IC.  Editorial Note:  Bugeater’s Halloween decorating skills are absolutely no match for fellow Area 51 pax member: Cheese Curd.  Cannot imagine that Curd’s holiday yard decorating skills have any equal in all of F3Nation.  Shall I post pictures to prove this?

…..back to the stew recipe

Indian run back to front of Chadwyck

Run back down Rea Rd to OP for the last helping of stew.

Very Slow Flutter x 15?

Plankorama for the last couple minutes with each of the pax taking a turn giving widely varying 10-counts while we were planking at 6″ position.  IH had the most creative/rhythmic cadence.

COT with solid takeout from Iron Horse.

Announcements:

12/6/14 – Area51 Christmas party at Sugar Creek Brewery – organized, hosted & DJ’d by Prohibition.

There’s some competition between TR/Kevlar and Header/Joust  involving shoes, going shirtless all winter, F3BigBlack filled to the brim with sneakers and who knows what else, Joker delivering the shoes wearing his wooly vest, etc, etc.

Happy Halloween to all of my F3 Area51 brethren.  Go Panthers!

Big Thank You to Heartbreaker for stepping up for his VQ at Rebel Yell.  You did a great job brother.

Welcome to the FNG’s :  Joel Palmer (Bout Time) and Dan Rutledge (Go Daddy).  Joel has been hearing about F3 for the last 3 years but is just now posting for the 1st time.  Must have been some pretty weak EH’ing going on I guess.  Bout Time you showed up brother!  Dan humbly stated he worked for an internet site but was quickly called out by our very own Mic Check as Dan is the owner and creator of the site.  If you want to find out what it is, find him, introduce yourself and talk to him.  It’s not Go Daddy nor some XXX site (which by the way was thrown out as a potential nick name – and no Purple Haze, it wasn’t me with that idea).  Great to have you guys out and look forward to posting with you in the near future.

Certainly an M&P kinda day.  Not a lot of creativity but I can guarantee that everyone got their cardio fill this morning.  Frehley’s was happy, and no doubt we all were as well, that he took care of his business prior to posting #smokebombs.  Bunch of guys were flying out there today – Throat Cotton aka Hairball, Mic Check, Freud, Rump Roast (think it was you).  And making the Rebel Yell Not Top 10 of the day – Peaches rolling around like a dead cock roach after cramping during the Rosalita.

Thank you to Mic Check for taking us out in prayer and congrats again to your MadBums.

Announements

If you haven’t done so already, sign up for the Joe Davis Memorial Run.  Attached is a link to the pre blast and registration instructions.  I highly encourage everyone to sign up for both the 10K and 5K even if you don’t play to do both.  It’s for a great cause.

Snow Man on Fire Part Deux / “The Beatdown”

10 Men gathered in the gloom of Outland for a frosty beatdown. Snowman was on a mission to prove that his previous showing of over the top vivaciousness wasn’t a one time deal as he lead the PAX for a brutal conclusion to the week’s voluntary drubbing.

The Thang

CT kickoffs the Q

Slow mosey through the parking lot and a couple trips around Electric Slide’s motor coach while he changes out of his bunny slippers and into some proper footwear and then over to the shovel flag.

COP
– SSH x 20
– IW x10 and a failed transition into Imperial Squats (IS). basiccally an Imperial Walker with a quat in between. YHC couldn’t get the count right so the PAX had to set me straight. once i learned to call count it went much better
– Imperial Squats x20
– Perfect Merkin x10
– LBC x10

Indian Run over to Shiloh Elem playground with a Squat walk through the gauntlet and Fence Burpees x10 (always a crowd pleaser).

She Hate Me ~ 5 minutes
– Step ups x40
– Mule kicks on the swings x20
– Decline Merkins x10

Indian Run back to the SVMS parking Lot with various pains stations and agility work along the way.

Hand off to Snowman

  • Indian run 20 LBCs
  • Plank
  • Indian run
  • 15 merkins / Plank
  • Indian run

Grab a rock and a partner and line up at the practice field

Partner 1 does the following:

  • Run to cone #6 / 25 merkins
  • Run to cone #5 / 25 back scratchers
  • Run to cone #4 / 25 Carolina dry docks
  • Run to cone #3 / 25 LBCs
  • Run to cone#2 / 25 Freddie mercury
  • Run to cone#1 / 25 side straddle hop

Partner 2 uses the rock

  • 1st set 15 curls
  • 2nd 15 rock squats 
  • 3rd set 15 chest compressions
  • 4th set 15 tricep extensions
  • 5th set rock15 squats
  • 6th set hold rock out at arm length

As partner was doing was running to the cone and doing the work out there, partner 2 does the rock workout. Both partners switch when one gets back or work out is completed. After that we did tunnel of love. Then we put the rocks back and did a Indian run back to the shovel flag. We stopped along the way to do 10 merkins ( I think that’s what we did) and then mosey to the base of the hill and do reverse lunge up the hill and run to shovel flag.  At shovel flag did Merkin around the clock adn couple minutes of Mary.  

Moleskin: Snowman brought his almost famous energy and enthusiasm to the lead this week for his inaugural lead. This began by double E calling him out on Friday to lead the next day and Snowman accepting and in turn challenging every one of the PAX to post no excuses. Strong start and a great job leading the pax through a brutal beatdown.

Story of the day.. All PAX were working on minimal sleep, as usual, but Glass Joe wins the prize by staying out all night Friday and posting with less than 3 hours of sleep. To boot he arrived @ 0600 for a five mile run with Double E and then into the normal hour beatdown from 0700 – 0800. T-Claps brother… i hope you got a nap that afternoon.
