Nothing up our Wizard Sleeves

At 6:00 AM, 15 of SOBland’s finest departed the Vine for a very “special” holiday workout. (Two minutes later Heisenberg shows up and everyone is gone. Sorry, dude.)

After a very slow mosey we arrived at the soccer field, (Hurry up, ladies!)

Holiday Note From the Site-Q’s…Wild Turkey & JRR Tolkien appreciate all the PAX support this past year, dealing with blown-up Twitter feeds with our sometimes debaucherous marketing, coming out to support SOB Q’s and guest Q’s, and dealing with an occasional “workout” that looks like a 2nd F event than a 1st.  And more than even the workouts, we have enjoyed transforming our friendships with you from early morning fitness acquaintances, into a dear set of friends who we can lean on in the best of times and the worst. Hey, blame it on a few Einstein Coffeeteerias. #tearyeyes  We hope you have a wonderful Christmas, relaxing New Year, and looking forward to another great year for F3 and Stonehenge.  The 4 YR Anniversary of Stonehenge is approaching, and we will be bringing back some of the original founders back on 1/14/2017 to Q so mark your calendars!

As always, if you have not Q’d a workout yet, Stonehenge is a great place to start, and any of us would be more than happy to help or co-Q with you, but you must sign up quickly as spots fill up VERY FAST: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090d4aaba729a46-stonehenge

NM:

• Wild Turkey shows up with Pink shoes to the workout… YHC stands corrected, they were “Coral” colored. Hey Wild Turkey, PRO-TIP: just so you know shoes are not unisex… they make Men’s AND Women’s sizes separate.
• JRR T came wearing a featuring a panda headband and T-shirt. It was like one of those cheap Halloween costumes with a plastic mask and smock.
• Wingman soared in the plank relay. He’s saved a lot of energy not posting for a few months.
• Amazingly, no one was injured during dodgeball which is almost inconceivable given the field was reduced to 7steps wide, and it was too dark to see. Hurt egos don’t count as true injury, otherwise 8 men would be injured #TeamWildTurkey
• To noone on Earth’s shock, Team Panda proved they were superior to Team Wild Turkey, in relay games AND dodgeball AND Tug-O-War! Despite being a man down! Hey, Pandas prefer bamboo, but aren’t afraid to snack on a few wild turkeys from time to time.
• The hardest part of the workout was getting PAX motivated to do anything other than speedwell the short distance to the soccer fields next to the Premier Lot.  Surprisingly, the PAX actually wanted to carry back all the gear from the fields to The Vine which included 2x45lb kettle bells, and a heavy rope).  From the mumble chatter the only reason this was done was to burn enough calories to be able to offset a light breakfast!
• Haggis brought his step-son FNG Coral … wait Livermush… no, Weiner Sleeve? Possibly the worse naming of an FNG YHC has ever seen.
• Nard Dog was heard asking questions about F3 Metro workouts in coffeeteeria…. stick with us another week man! Not all the Stonehenge workouts look like today! It’s just the holidays!
