“Flint-Hole” Death by 11s AMRAP
Workout Summary
Appreciate all the PAX that showed up for the virgin Q. The first of many. I think this time @jrrtolkienF3 was kidnapped on his morning prerun. He would never miss a #flintcommitment. His absence only made us think about calling Liam Nelson to chase down the kidnappers…nah. The rest of the Flint committee was off.

A good group of PAX for the virgin Q. Wasn’t too many to keep up with. Voodoo flaunted the 60lb KB. Argonaut lapped most people, it wasn’t even close. Marlin needs a new clock.

Great lead on Monday, Flint. The backblast needs a little work (Calgary?), but at least you got it posted (thanks for the assist, JRRT). I’m still sore from all the squats and it’s Thursday. #thegiftthatkeepsongiving
Attn all pax: There will be no Foxhole on Monday, 9/5. Area 51 and the SOBs will converge at Stonecrest (same location as the Maul and Rebel Yell). There will be kettlebell and boot camp stations. Please bring kettlebells if you have them as there will likely be pax without them (a/k/a “losers”).
The kettlebell clinic will be held at 7am on October 8th at Calvary Church at the intersection of Rea and 51. Byron (an actual trainer in real life) will be there to help the pax get acquainted with kettlebells or to brush up on their KB skillz. Please let me know if you plan to attend so we can get an idea of numbers.
