What in the wide, wide world of sports is a-goin’ on here?

YHC, after setting the alarm extra early, arrived at the cavernous AO that is Dromedary several minutes early…even getting there before Bratwurst.  First pleasant surprise of the morning was that Bratwurst had the shovel flag that Snoop Dog forged many months ago and then donated to the F3 Golf tournament.  Brat gave YHC the privilege of planting the SF, and then we waited for the pax to muster.  Believe Posse or Biff was LIFO…not sure, but we then launched into the gloom for something that went at least somewhat like this:

The Thang:

Jog to the small track (1/8’ish of a mile).  Circle up for COP

COP:

6-count burpee x 10 IC

Slow squat x 20 IC

IW x 25 IC

Dolly x 15 IC

Partner up for the following:

P1 runs the track while P2 holds plank – emphasis on good form. Flapjack.

P1 runs while P2 holds squat. Flapjack.

P1 runs while P2 on six holds legs at 6 inches.  Flapjack.

P1 runs while P2 does 6 inch merkin hold (aka Mission Impossible). Flapjack.

Mosey over to the tables just outside the high school cafeteria.

Jump Up x 13, Derkin x 13 OYO. 3 circuits.

People’s Chair w/overhead press x 25, IC

People’s Chair w/Frankenstein hold

Mosey over to some other building while knifing through the buses and nearly being hit by a car.

BTW’s with walkout and walkup x 3

Donkey Kicks x 13 OYO.  3 circuits.

Jog back to launch lot for some Mary.

6 MoM:

Ye Olde Moleskine:

YHC texted Bananas & Bratwurst late Tuesday afternoon and asked “Who’s on Q at Dromedary?”  Bratwurst replied: “You are”.  Bananas quickly concurred.  So there it was.

Arrived early, despite the long drive to the Deep South of Area 51. or is it UC?  or is it SC?  Anyway, I forgot how huge this AO is….and forgot what the AO had to offer. #lackofQprep  Frack was helpful in helping YHC find the small track for COP and the first painstation.  Much obliged brother.

Bananas kept claiming the track was a 1/2 mile, which means several world records were set in the 800m run.  Frack was flying around the track the first 2 laps…not so much the next 2.  Hollywood and Dasher were flying all 4 laps.  I’m sure others were as well, but Dasher being my partner – I noticed and was grateful.  Backsplash was also teamed with us; didn’t see him much but Dasher assured me hadn’t left.  Glad he didn’t – would have hurt my feelings; and I did see him later on.

During the People’s chair segment, Brat threatened to leave his $#!print on the cafeteria window, but that would have ruined the kids’ lunch and likely could have worn out the pax’ welcome at the home of the Mavericks.

#Cobains for YHC’s form tutorials on some exercises…but rumor has it you get stronger and better if you actually do the exercises correctly?

After almost desecrating the cafeteria windows, a couple of us almost got run over cutting through the buses.  I had visions of someone running through right as some sleep-deprived, over-caffeinated bus driver threw the door lever open….but that didn’t happen.

Methinks the BTW’s and donkey kicks were a break from the Dromedary rountine?

YHC did pause for twice to give the pax a breather.  Frack’s 10 count was 3.78 seconds, and Crabcake obliged YHC’s seemingly random call for a 13 count….WTH?

Hollywood, donning some homemade family mud-run t-shirt, was doing some sort of scissor-kick SSH at the end….that was interesting.  Hope you didn’t wreck your groin.

Grease Monkey, during name-a-rama, added “The” to his nickname.  I purposely did not put that in the pax listing…reminded me too much of Ohio State….get over yourself Brutus.

Strong group of pax at Dromedary for sure.  It was good to be back out there with you fellas.  In truth, glad Brat & Bananas asked…I mean told me….to Q.

Keep coming out men, and keep encouraging and pushing each other to improve, especially in the 2nd & 3rd F categories….but also the 1st F.

Thanks to Bratwurst for taking us out.

Announcements:

Bratwurst is lining up Q’s for the rest of the year….sign up or you’ll be summarily assigned a morning.

3rd F – F3Sanctuary – Thursday nights at 7:30pm at Brooklyn Pizza-Wesley Chapel

Bananas is never late to a workout…..if he’s late, he’s fartsacking.

This is the most timely backblast in months at Dromedary. Thanks for leading today. That was a methodical beatdown that we will all feel assuming we did it right.
Look forward to having you again.
