Longest Twitch Ever
8 men eschewed the passing rain to experience what was the longest Fast Twitch ever (in time at least).
The Thang:
Warm-up in parking lot with mountian climbers, various lunges, SSHs.
Mosey down to Calvary lot via Davie Park and Rea, stopping for a few merkins along the way.
Partner Suicides: One partner runs the suicide, other does called exercise. Flapjack
- Merkins
- Squats
- Flutters
- Monkeyhumpers *crowdpleaser
- Dollies
- CDDs
- LBCs
- Diamond merkins
Mosey over to rear entrance with steep hill. 11s on hill; squats/burpees. Called early due to time.
Line up for indian run back to launch point.
Overtime: 1:10
Distance: 5.25
Moleskine:
- Great job seeing the die hard runners and runstopper out there despite the early rain
- Nice to see some of the swift/FT fence sitters joining FT for the final warmup before the convergence next week; glad to have Fraiser running for the FT team again
- Must have been a bit humid today, seeing Hairball wring out his shirt at the end and putting Mr.Brady’s waterfall to shame
- Cobains for the tardy return; a bit overzealous on the 11s; did someone poke the Q?
- Some regulars missing this week – hope to see you there next week for the time trial!
Announcements:
- Will be converging next week with Swift for the 1 mile time trial. See preblast at: http://f3nation.com/2014/10/09/preblast-1-mile-time-trial-and-other-fun/

Overzealous – You think? It’s 6:00am, we are 7-8 minutes from home base, and you call 11’s with burpees. Pretty sure 7 guys thought WTF. I thought that because I was already gassed from the suicides.
That was a tough one – reminded me of BRR going back up hill after burpees. You demonstrated how to lose friends and make enemies perfectly.
I may slash some tires if I can figure out who suggested you could not keep up with Bratwurst. I have a guess that it was the man that eschewed Hydra this am because I brought a few little bricks.
It was Strange Brew. It’s all his fault. Taunting a sleep deprived Turkey Leg who spent all night trying to find his running shoes and toothbrush in a garage full of moving boxes. Everything after that was a blur. I don’t think that TL said very many words during this workout.
Suicides had my eyes bugging. I figured we would head back after that, which would have been bad enough. The 11s were so bad it was funny – borderline hilarious.
The “every man left behind” Indian Run to finish things off was a classic. A string of guys flying up Hwy 51, dropping off like flies one by one. I think 8 started and like 3 finished. I did not make it to the end.
