22 PAX got after it at CCHS this am – here’s what we did
The thang:
Jog down to practice field for COP – SSH, Merkins, Makhtar n’Diayes, diamonds and Freddie Mercury.
Partner up for:
Head up to level 4 of parking deck for Mermaid’s favorite set (non-musical although PAX were ready for some head banging near the end to divert attention from the suck). Run down the stairs, broad jumps between the two culverts on the driveway, run around field and then 5 burpees, run to other corner for 5 hand release merkins, bear crawl down the side, run the ramps back up to level 4 and then do 10 squat jumps. Rinse and repeat two more times.
Head down to level 1 and find your partner. Partner 1 does called exercise while partner 2 sprints up and back the deck. 4 rounds – LBC, dolly, flutter, and American hammer or knee ups
Wall sit for a few minutes and then mosey back to parking lot. FInish with 30 seconds of burpees.
Naked moleskin:
Big crowd this am so I’ll keep announcing a “mystery Q” each week to drive attendance. Hopefully the PAX was not disappointed. Mermaid sent me a tweet asking if he could take over for Thin Mint (on IR -get well fast brother) but alas I was already dialed in. Next best (worst) thing was running one of his favorite routes.
Tool bag showed up for 2nd F3 workout. Welcome brother and come back next week (to Centurion – some other AO before them would be good idea #getstrongerandfaster).
Cobains to Driver for nominating him to coach the Centurion team in the Turkey bowl without any advance warning. I figured an ex CCHS football player should lead the Centurion team. Also, thought maybe he could hook us up with Elijah Hood #ringer.
Dear Abbey must be working from the beer taverns less – he was out front during the circuits with Mermaid right there with him. Looked like they may have skipped jump squats but I’ll review the tape. YHC was not feeling it this am due to poor sleep and a pre-run (lame excuses)
Only three for the pre-run. Three old men at that. Time to start ramping up the training for Joe Davis so we can dominate all the other F3 AO’s (at least on an age adjusted basis).
Pretty sure Abacus needs some advice on his form as he looked like a woman giving birth while doing the dollies – legs are supposed to be straight.
Announcements:
Turkey Bowl – Check web site and twitter for more details but it will be Thanksgiving day. It’s the best way to earn that third helping of turkey.
Christmas Party December 2 at Firethorn Country Club – sign up and pay (or just pay). I think Ty Webb is making a guest appearance (we need an FNG before 12/2 so we can name him that and force him to attend).
Sign up for Joe Davies Memorial run. It is a great race for a great cause.
Chelms giving Abacus grief on form? Suppose the man with the “Best form in all of Area 51 of F3” can do that, especially with his younger brother.
Redemption Set was run for the first time 11/06/2015. Today’s Redemption Set was a variation. The original:
Level 4 Stairway 1:
10 Jump Squat
Descend Stairway 1 to ground
5 Burpees
AYG clockwise around football field
Stop at scoreboard. 5 Burpees
Continue to Cougar Entrance
20 Merkin
Bear Crawl to Crosswalk
Enter Tartarus and AYG to Level 4 Stairway 1 (Long ramps)
Repeat x 2 (approx 2 mile total)
DA, BT, and YHC owe 20 Jump Squat. Didn’t hear you call them and we didn’t do them at the start at level 4.
The variation had teeth as sharp as the original. That set flat out hurts. Glad you called it today. Strong crew out there. Great start to the day.
