Friday the 13th burpee special

Friday the 13th burpee special

13 men weren’t not afraid of this Friday the 13th workout and posted at The Brave.
Mosey to the Parking lot behind Einstein’s Bagels
Short COP:
50 SSH IC
15 Merkins IC
30 Imperial Walkers IC

Mosey to the bottom level of the parking deck at the Ballantyne Village, 10 merkins at each recess, alternating running forward on a ramp then backwards on the next, till we made it to the top level.
At that point broke the news that we were not going to do an AMRAP which I believe is a staple at The Brave, there was some mumbling among the PAX and MT was mentioned a few times. Then we got to work. Did a mini Burpee Marathon doing 12 Burpees every minute for 13 minutes, with a total of 156 burpees in the 13 minutes, was aiming for 15 minutes but decided to stop at 13 since this specific exercise didn’t seem to be a crowd pleaser. I got this idea from Ice9, the first time he made us do this in UC I thought that it was so simple yet effective yet brutal.

Mosey through Ballantyne Village got on Ballantyne Commons and ran to the intersection with Ballantyne Place and used one of the parking decks, at each recess 20 LBC, alternating running forward and backwards at the ramps until making it all the way to the top.

Did some Mary:
15 Flutter IC
15 Sit Ups IC
15 Dolly IC
15 LBC IC
15 Sit Ups IC
15 Bicycle IC
15 Sit Ups IC

Planked it out facing the wall and did a 5 position exercise it went like this: hand on the wall, other hand on the wall while holding the plank, hand to the ground, other hand to the ground, then do a Merkin = 1 rep, did this 15 times IC
Peoples Chair, and did 30 air presses IC
Plank facing away from the wall and did donkey kicks followed by a Merkin, did 10 reps IC.

Mosey down to the ground level and headed back to the starting point, caught up to Mario and Stump Hugger that had a head start, did some SSH at the 521 intersection while waiting for the light to change, then mosey back to the Vine Restaurant for COT.

Moleskin:
Thank you for the opportunity to lead, what a great AO and group of men. This was my first SOB Q, and to be honest I was little nervous, since this are the common grounds for some of the F3 beasts I worked out with in the past.
Thank you Thin Mint for the invitation, and SOB men for your support.
Also I appreciate the support of my UC brothers Goodfella, Hollywood and Stump Hugger that showed up for my Q, I guess I should also include Argonaut in this group since he has become a little more UC lately.

Announcements:
Savage Race in May, Tolkien’s madness has spread through the SOB land, and it seems they are all replacing the Ultimate Mud Run for The Savage, but some may be doing both?. Since this is the first time some F3 PAX will officially participate in this race is not clear yet how everything is going to go down in terms of competition, Teams, individual, etc. Also discount coupons for F3 will be coming in the future.
Saturday January 21st, Convergence for the one year anniversary of DaVinci, multiple AOs will converge there including Stone Henge and Commitment, DaVinci starts at 6:30 am at the Chick Fil A in Blakeney, intersection of Rea Road and Ardrey Kell.

Thank you Mario for taking us out.
