  • The Skunk Pax can thank Blue and the Cotswold Faithful for the seed idea for this workout and the associated TBQs.  “Pain” it Forward, F3 Style.  Aye!
  • The Pax were advised in an email PreBlast to bring dumbbells in the 8-15 lb range.  Water jugs or “something with handles” were suggested alternates.  Jamboree posts with 10 lb dumbbell and a gallon of bleach.  Not sure what to say about that.  Note to Pax:  This one will be back.  Stock up appropriately.
  • Mall Cop, meanwhile, borrowed Izzy Mandlebaum’s dumbbells from the fitness museum.  Again, stock up.
  • The ironically-named Thin Crust doubled down on oxymoron, rolling up (late, mind you) in a new Mini Cooper, a car better proportioned for Run Stopper.
  • Sign up for Twitter and follow @F3Nation.  If you, like Hops, are flummoxed by all this “tweetering” (his words), go HERE for the F3+Twitter Primer.
  • The Shore and 49er kick off the A51 tempo run, The Devil’s Turn, this Thursday, July 26, at McAlpine Greenway – SARDIS entrance.  The six milers go off at 0515 am, the 4 milers at 0530.
  • HEADS UP FOR UPCOMING SPARTAN RACES:  Look for instructions on sign ups for the upcoming races in October (Beast) and February (Sprint).  Once the page is live, F3 will have an online registration available for a limited time only.  More info to follow. Stay tuned.

Izzy Mandlebaum? No idea what that means – but it’s hilarious.
Painful workout but a fun one!

Common Now, don’t be haten on the old school, real man’s free weights just because I didn’t bring my wifes purple or orange dumbells! Hey Hops, click on the Izzy Mandlebaum name as it is a link to a Seinfeld episode.

Tiger Rag, nice Painful Tabatta workout today! Just the way I like starting out a Tuesday at Skunk Works. Aye!
