Nice and early BB today. Yes I am golfing. Bloody Mary’s by 9.
Per the pre tweet – We ran 3+, we did merkins, we stayed off the grass (not the ganja) and we had some gentlemanly 2ndF.
Total of 8 pax.
Observations
Bounce said he would post. Got a text from him at 3am as he was making his own All Star breakfast at Waffle House saying he wasn’t going to make it. #HeIsGettingFat. http://people.com/food/south-carolina-man-hilariously-cooks-himself-breakfast-at-waffle-house-while-employee-sleeps/
Bananas HC’d yesterday. No show. He drinks too much #holidays
Buttermaker keeps saying he wants to make an F3 comeback. Today was a great opportunity. He evidently had some mayoral duties to take care of over at OT. #OhHiMike #HeIsTheOTMayor
Bulldog chose his warm gummy bear yoga this morning over Hydra #Bullocks
Tiger Rag – Seriously how long does a broken pinky toe keep one on IR? IT HAS BEEN HALF A YEAR. He’s got to be pushing 240 by now. Everybody needs to start peppering him.
Semi Gloss broke, BROKE, his foot 2 months ago and was out this morning. Notwithstanding his constant whining, I am proud of him. #Gross
Otherwise, it was a very gentlemanly crew this morning. Not very easy to talk smack to the likes of Purple Haze, Marge, Queen, Lazy Boy, Hopper, Sleepy etc. It was a very clean workout, the exception being Gloss’ 2 inch inseam running shorts #DudeYourBallsAreShowing
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa, Feliz Navidad,
Um, Spackler is on Q at Skunk? Wait, does he even do F3 anymore? Is OT closed? Is that refusnik even allowed to Q? Is this a joke?
22, including YHC, pondered many of those questions coming into this highly anticipated Q of the week.
After a quick prayer from Chin Music, the parade was off.
That thing
Partner up for CMIYC #LikeSizeBells should have been reinforced – Partner 1 – 10 merkins and catch Partner 2 who was running with both bells – once caught each do 10 swings and flapjack
Did the loop around the church to end at base of hill
Drop your partner for some solo Triple Dimeage – 10 swings at base, 10 wide arm merkins at top – 5 times total
Quick stomaaaaach.
Mosey to front (?) of church with partners again. Partner 1 runs around church while Partner 2 performs 3 exercizes. Flapjack. Exercises included 10 one handed swings, 10 snatch to press and 10 high pulls. We did that for awhile.
Mosey back to lot to end with some more stomaaaaach.
And….scene.
YOM
Always glad when you have an even number of PAX so it doesn’t screw up your plans. Not so glad when YHC gets un-lucky enough to partner up with Crotch Rocket and his 678lb Russian Skittle. Made the running awkward and I’ve already scheduled my next ‘massage’.
There were either lots of fast CMIYC’ers this morning or you took a page out of my Refusnik for Dummies prep book and failed to do all the swings. I’m going with the latter.
One of 4 reasons for all the running in this Meathead-esque #Sh*tshow today: 1. Nothing like seeing #PreRunners en route to the parade 2. Waking to a stiff barb tweetsie from High Tide 3. YHC doesn’t know half the KB exercises 4. ALL OF THE ABOVE
I didn’t forget about Baracas trying to insinuate (had to look that up) that YHC pulled his game plan from last weeks Skunk. I’m a veteran sir. When I flatulate I own it. I did not have flatulence this morning.
Only chatter heard had to do with #ACC fooseball which was quickly dismissed
Ok that’s enough. Forearms are tightening up.

There were 9 of us. It was splendid. Little moist but still splendid. Certainly thankful for this time of year as its just not quite cold enough for Runstopper to bless us with his lulu lemon yoga pants.
We warmed up with a little this and that.
Partner up and CMIYC down to Stonewall Jackson’s cannon (shocked that is still there and that it hasn’t offended anyone yet).
Stay with partners and while Partner 1 runs loop the other does merkins and flap jack. Next exercise was jump squats. Did both cumulatively x 200.
Indian Run through the hood to some street that looked like a half pipe and did grinders for a bit.
Headed back to AO via Windyrush and completed 10 H2H at each street lamp.
Runstopper finished us off (sounds gross) with Jack Webb up to 9.
Observations
Gloss has AIDS. Full blown AIDS
Could hardly quell the Clemtech excitement from Marge and Deep Dish (who BTW was proudly wearing his orange BEARS tshirt #BringBackCutler)
I am now an Alabama Fan #RTR. Thanks Jet Fuel
MAD came out like a juvenile thoroughbred running his first Pimlico race this morning – aaaaaaand then we lost him somewhere around turn 4
Runstopper was way too excited to lead Jack Webb at the end.

34 pax including 2 FNG’s converged upon the monstrous AO known as Anvil to see what both Mermaid and YHC had planned for the special morning.
The Thang
Mermaid led us around a loop for a quick, yet painful, COP
SSH, IW, Mnt Climbers, 6 inches with leg lifts, burpees etc. There may have been a few more. It was a shoulder smoker
Spack Q
Partner up for CMIYC to McAlpine Elementary – other partner 10 merkins. Once you get to the school you and your partner knock out 50 burpees and 100 merkins cumulatively. Then CMIYC back to Anvil. Mary until the six got back.
Mary and more running – partner 1 runs down to the last light pole and back while partner 2 does Mary. Flapjack. 300 Dolly. 100 bicycle.
Finished with 6 100 yard sprints
Moleskine
Once again Mermaid delivered the most eloquent disclaimer that could be given in all A51. Just glad you remembered to include me in there. #Belch
Hadn’t seen Alf in awhile. Should have brought those screwdrivers. Next time.
Mermaid and YHC agreed he would run the COP and I would take care of the rest. He promised a shoulder smoker. He delivered. His portion was less than 10 minutes and YHC had Deep Dish all up in his ear begging me to takeover the workout sooner.
Lot’s of chatter early. “You suck Spackler” “Real original Spackler” “He must have made this up on the drive over this morning”. All somewhat true statements. Chatter didn’t last long. Mission accomplished.
YHC told the FNG’s to partner up with a vet so they didn’t get lost on the run. Horsehead partnered with one. His FNG ditched him.
Lot’s of fast guys out there today. You don’t need YHC to mention you. Keep your pride in check fellas.
Several ‘vets’ and I won’t mention their names but Semi Gloss, Baracas and Stone Cold all decided to do face to face imaginary tea bag squats in lieu of burpees and merkins. Must be BRR season. #ProudOfYou
“What is a balloon knot” was among several awkward moments presented in the church parking lot this AM.
We had 2 FNG’s – respond below in comments to finalize –
John – (Full House but I’d like to throw out Kimmy or Gibbler)
Jake – ( Jockstrap but I like Fundies)
Appreciate Hops taking us out in prayer.
Thank You to Stinger for sharing his story today. Powerful stuff. Hope to catch you at an AO in the near future.

Today is May 4th and I’m sure there were some F3 workouts themed “May the Fourth Be With You”. Dorks. Not #F3Hydra. 12 showed to see what the #OlAlabamaBlackSnake was all about. I don’t think it disappointed. Just glad Bounce and Gloss were there in case someone needed some mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Thang
20 IW
20 LSS
Partner up and cross Rea.
Partner A runs one way and Partner B the other round the block until you meet, do an exercise and then continue the run until you meet back at the start. Do Mary while you wait on everyone. Original? No. But nobody had named it yet. #Urwelcome #EAD #OlAlabamaBlackSnake
Exercises were 20 hand slap merks, 20 DD’s and 30 squats.
Back to lot for 5 rounds of sprints #ProudOfYouGloss
Mary – 20 scissors, 50 LBC’s
Moleskin
This will be short. Nothing funny happened. Nothing. I expected more from Gloss, Bounce, Poptart and Hops. Bounce tried to be funny and say some crude things about my wife. When nobody laughed he just tucked back into his shell. #awkward The same aforementioned PAX pretty much led the whole time on #OABS with the exception of Bounce. Deep Dish was out ahead in my group most of the time which might surprise some? The jury is still out #PED’s. Have to give crap to MAD and Frosty Paws only bc they cut the last lap short. The #OABS will get even the best of the #ruckers? #rucksters? Ah hell whatever. Welcome back to Operation get your lungs right boys. The loop was exactly a mile, and with some other shenanigans, most got in 3.5 miles today. Can’t remember who the WD was (Maybe Jet Fuel?) but I was the WB at 36. #sad
LBNL, thanks for the prayers Gloss as we embark on our various journeys.
Always a pleasure to lead

Nope
15 toked on a little #MH today. If you don’t feel it now just wait longer. Puff, puff give……
The Thang
No disclaimer given – straight down #MH to the rock pile – grab a lifting rock and meet up in the pool parking lot
She Hate Me – 10 curls, 20 overhead extensions, 30 squats (audible to overhead press – #urwelcome shoulders) – Finish rotation and run to the gate and back. Rinse and repeat for 10 minutes.
Moseyed to base of #MH. Triple Nickel on #MH. 10 merkins at bottom/10 CCD’s up top. 5 times.
Mary – 20 FM and 20 Dolly
Done

YHC was dreading this today. Fact is, got a little banged up at the Hornets game Monday night and struggled ALL DAY Tuesday and didn’t have the energy to visit my pals over at Hydrate Medical.. Last thing I wanted to do was Q The Maul today. Oh and it was raining. #WTF So the plan was #MH for the majority of the time and #MH it was…….she brought the heat needed playboys. Lot’s of good effort out there too. Lot’s of b***hing as well though. Draino came out the gates hot on the first trip up #MH. Blew his load. However he was asking for 100 yard sprints at the end so kudos to you my friend. Cold Cuts was pushing hard. Think he got the best of She Hating Him though because the pace slowed considerably on #MH. Was waiting on MT to push up near the front the entire time but he clearly is too focused on the pubic wig/pull up challenge. Big Tuna was looking good and missing his buddy Semi Gloss. Unfortunately YHC had to break the bad news the SG has now become a #runner to counter his infatuation with doughnuts. Lastly, much respect to both the #respecteds today. Certainly hope I’m still doing stuff like this post 50. Enjoyed it gents. Look forward to seeing everyone again in a few months. #EADGloss #DealWIt #WeAllMissRadar

16 pax dealt with it at The Maul. 1 for a pre run.
Been awhile since I have attended the Maul. Good to see some old & new faces.
Here is what we did – The Loop Part Deuce
1st run as a group to show each stop and then release the Pax to get as many rounds in as possible by 6:10.
1st stop – 3 times up some asinine hill with 10 merkins at the top each time
2nd – 10/20/30 at the fountains – step ups, derkins and dips
3rd – 50 LBC’s
4th – 10 burpees or 20 squats
Finished with a quick round or two of Mary
Most pax got in 3+ miles with Frasier leading the way with 3.52345323.
Moleskine
No MH today for those that were wanting to hit her up – it’s ok though because I’m sure you got your fill. Frasier was polite enough to hang around and chat for a bit when the Loop first started. Then he took off. Thanks to Van Pelt for pushing YHC along (even though he probably didn’t know he was). T claps to Goonie for running before and after to hit 5 miles for the day. Outback and MT must have been taking it easy today as I know they are faster than that. Dumpster was pushing it and has come a long way. Snowflake and the other #respected gentlemen continue to show they are a force to be reckoned with……..
Enjoyed it gents. Check twitter for all that’s going on in F3.

Snowflake to Q Centurion
MT to Q at Arsenal somewhere in Egypt
No mudrun in Columbia this year – taking it to the Savage up in Concord on May 13th. Be on the look for details.
17 came but only 16 mentioned below. I am missing one. Chime in fockers. FTR, this is the latest I’ve ever posted a BB. Must be the lack of Tito’s. However, Daddy is on cheat night so…… Suck. It.
So here is the deal. I didn’t really want to lead. I’m out of shape and grumpy because of this Drynuary thing. But this racehorse needed, what is now only looking like a 72 hour break, from the sauce. Plus I couldn’t find my pink Tutu. I was really hoping I could make Pop Tart proud. If only I could have found the ‘beads’ maybe I could have made him #merlot.
We did a short COT. That is what it is called right? Moved over to the speed bumps for an inordinate amount of merkins which I am fairly certain Semi Wet didn’t complete. FTR, I didn’t either. Nor did half the other guys. Pop Tart probably did. He is stho sthrong. Screw the whole ‘If you can’t Q it, don’t do it’. That **** is stale. The new term is ‘Deal. With. It’. I do what I want. Put that in the Lexicon queers.
We then ran to the top of Murderhorn. Knowing we were having to wait forever for the slow guys we gathered at some loopity loop. Few of us almost got taken out by some future stock car driver. Either that or it was probably some overweight guy consumed with eating his leftover fried chicken wrap from Chick fil a not paying attention as he made an offensively wide turn. Guaranteed he thought, “Chicken Wrap is healthy”. Guess what? He probably needs F3. Or Orange Theory. Partner up fockers. I got Semi Wet. Perfect. Run in opposite directions until you meet your partner. More merkins except we did that awkward hand slap thing. Meet back at beginning. Repeat. Hand slap. Tee hee hee. Some LBC’s. LETS GO SLOW GUYS.
At this point, my fat ass is smoked. Head down Murderhorn. Mumbled something to Pop Tart. Probably talking about ‘beads’. Meet up at the rocks. Partner work with a bunch of stuff while partner runs to stop sign and back. Flab jack and so forth. Good recovery.
Move to bottom of Murderhorn. Same partners. One goes up Murderhorn. Other to the right up to the end of some some street. Guess what? Unoriginal merkins for both at each end. Sounded like an equal distance. Wrong. Murderhorn partner got screwed. Flab jack.
Indian run up the Murderhorn. Fast line won. Easy. Somebody go get the six.
Back to home base to do triple nickel on frost covered hill. More merkins, squats etc. At this point, I’m looking for the extra pump from the previous nights Titos. No luck. F. But you know. I still ‘Got It’. Turn around and a few guys are doing 100 or something LBC’s in place of man ****. It’s called Vaginosis. LBC’s that is.. Put that in the Lexicon.
Back to home base where I thought we had 3 minutes left at 6:17 to do Back Scratchers bc they aren’t hard and I didn’t care. Oh no time left? Good. Now I can drive home 15 miles.
Semi Wet took us out in prayer and I thank him for that. He always does a good job encouraging us to ’embark’ on our various journey’s. I kept the recording going during prayer so I could keep it, memorize it and drop it at a future lead. Preesh.
That’s it fellas. Now go enjoy the 2 inches of snow. Meteorologists are full of **** man. Shalom.
PS. Forgot to say a disclaimer that was effective but let’s be honest, nobody takes me seriously anyway. And if you do, bless you. But, Frasier is wide open for appointments in February. Why February? You need to wait for him to get through all the New Years Resolution losers.

Joe Davis moved to next weekend. Be there. Good stuff for not only a great cause but a great friend in Rock Thrill. For this I am serious. Deal. With. It.
And that we did. 15 pax for anywhere between 4.3 – 4.71 miles, 20 burpees, 80 CDD’s and a rep or two of Mary. #urwelcome
The Thang – you already read it

YHC had 3 ideas planned and Deep Dish/Hops had the idea last night to just let pax choose a number 1-3 for which we’d do. #shoutout Unfortunately, #2 was victorious however that option had the most mileage. Not your typical DV today but everyone performed well. HB and TL were out front with several others but I only name them bc they just completed a marathon 3 days ago. Everyone else is simply just queer. Lastly, sorry we got back 2 min late – too many 10 counts.
Chatter was minimal but here is what I picked up –
What is this a Tuesday?
This is too much running
Where the *&^% are we going?
Puddin got hit on by a lady that was walking her dogs with her husband. Sometimes you just got it.
Fireman Ed was the main culprit behind all the bitchin today – last I heard him mumble something about not having enough time to take his daily morning nap aka flog the dolph session.
Smokey asked what YHC was training for – just for all the bad stuff I am going to be putting in this high performance machine between now and New Years. #Priorities
Bounce and Semi Gloss continue to disappoint when called upon for support. Gloss ‘forgot’ to set his alarm which is a lie bc his sphincter acts as his auto alarm. Bounce, well, he can’t really run over 3 miles so it was probably good he stayed home.
For anyone wondering, Ed Conder is still on twitter as @RadarF3. We should consider giving his name up to a loyal F3 participant
Much appreciation for the golf clap post workout. Didn’t recognize it until I listened to my recording. #mutiny
Thanks to TR for taking us out in prayer.

Drynuary is just around the corner.
13 pax took on the loop this morning in the dreaded tundra that is known as #F3DeathValley.
Precise and effective disclaimer was given
Couple laps around parking lot followed by the longest COP ever performed by YHC, according to Glossy Balls.
The Thang – Viva La Vuelta x 3
We did this as a group on the first loop, AYG on the second loop and again as a group on the 3rd loop. Even threw in a little Mary and some planks on occasion for a time kill. Voila.
Moleskine
Great effort out there today gents for what YHC thought was a great workout. Kudos to Mermaid for dropping a similar bomb on us last week at Anvil and giving me the last minute idea for today. She’s a keeper
In typical Gloss form, he pulls in with 3 min to spare walks by my car and mouths the infamous, “I gotta s#it”. We need to make a tshirt #pronto
Speaking of tshirts, come to find out Dumpster Fire has memorized what would seem to be each and every No Fear t shirt slogan. No doubt trying to pump himself up through the last loop with #2ndplaceisthefirstloser talk.
The whole No Fear talk triggered some, and I’m sure not so shocking to many of you, memories of my youth with the Big Johnson tshirts. Of course as I’m reciting the slogan of the infamous Big Johnson Bar & Casino, I look to my left and it’s none other than Header. #Doh!
Header, Chin Music, Smokey and Dolly were all out front today #shocker. Plan was to call them out on their #crotchtoupee form to slow them down but I couldn’t keep up. #theybfast
Dolphin pushed through with a bad shoulder for some not so friendly shoulder exercises. Nice work brother. Hope you get some good news this afternoon. Thank you for taking us out in prayer
Draino, Jet Fuel and Geraldo kept their heads down and powered through. Good work gents. Well I take that back. Geraldo, #YouOnlyHadOneJob
Pretty sure Deep Dish sat in his bed this AM staring at his iPhone just waiting for the temp to change from 36* to 35*. No luck compadre!
Welcome Private Benjamin to his 2nd workout. It was made clear following the workout that Private Benjamin was just not appropriate because he claimed that was his favorite movie and that is all the pax could think of……..this is getting quite offensive. I move to rename, and in keeping with the Private Benjamin theme, I’ve come up with Private Wanda, Slick Guy, Mr Waxman or Final Thrust. Obviously I’m leaning towards the last one. Ideas welcome.
Big props to Smokey for being the most unselfish of the pax this morning to carry the load as Operation Sweet Tooth Toy and Supply Q for Death Valley. Dollywood oh Dollywood. #shameful
It’s an honor to lead and I always appreciate the opportunity #GlossIsProudOfMe
