New Year’s Eve Eve

New Year’s Eve Eve

Young Love had a great idea of having a Wednesday convergence for New Year’s Eve Eve.  So the Pax of #F3Anvil #F3TheMaul and #F3DeathValley got together at 5:30am for pre pre festivities.

45 men showed up #51Counts for the fun.

5:30am came and off we went for some COP and instructions.  The Pax were told that we would break up into groups of three with myself, Commish and Semi Gloss doing his best Spackler impression.  Unfortunately Spackler’s son was positive for the flu and rather than exposing all of us to the potential of getting the flu he decided to sit this out.  Hopefully your son will feel better soon.

COP

Slow merking x 10

Mountain Climber x 20

IW x 10

Enough of that.  Everyone counts off and heads to their station.

Station One; Semi Glosses station.

Find a lifting rock.  Do a set of rock exercises i.e. curl, overhead press and squats.  After the set run to the light and back.  Three rounds doing 10, 20 and 30 each round.

Second station: Commish

Three sub-stations.  Station one was hairburners.  Station two was working on your six pack since it is beach weather lately.  Station three was dips and derkins x 20.

Third station: Frasier

The Beast with a twist.  There were seven stops.  The stops were the parking islands.  You run to the last island and do merkins x 10.  Run back to the start and plank while you wait on the six. Different variations of plank throughout.  We ran to all seven islands doing merkins x 10.  The last instruction was AYG to the last island and back.  The six turns around when the leaders come through.

One minute of Mary lead by Semi Gloss doing American Hammer x 20.

Done.

Observations: Convergences are great for energy and getting to mix it up.  I think everyone got to do something in their wheelhouse i.e. lifting, pushing, Mary, running.  Fletch seems to be great at all of them.

The weather was great as it never really did rain on us.

At my station some of us need to work on our plank form.  Lots of downward dog out there along with refusniks.  Everyone ran hard at my station.  The last group was stacked with speed.  Fletch, Joker, Turkey Leg, Hops, Prohibition, Header, Buttermaker were all leading the way during the run portion.

Sound off with other observations.

Announcements: No #F3Jevlar this Friday.  Everything except Mountain Goat is going off at the convergence at AG Middle School.

#F3Meathead is converging with #F3RebelYell tomorrow at the regular 5:30am time.

Thanks for the send off Young Love.

Enjoy your rainy day!
