A Chicken Walks Into A Penalty Box…

A Chicken Walks Into A Penalty Box…

Woke up ready to go for my 48th Q, almost too much time before I needed to leave. Why not straighten some things up around the hou….holy sheet I have 6 minutes to get there.

Sprint out of the house and pull onto main road and a Honda Accord is going less than speed limit. Ohhh come on. He finally turns and I proceed to get 2mi/gallon as I jam the gas to the floor.

I see a pile of PAX and the begin clapping for my arrival. It makes sense and it made my heart smile. Sprint up to a ton of people, yell about splitting but turns out 1/3rd was mashing.

Quick DiCCS given. It wasn’t pretty. Reminder to keep your distance. Let’s roll.

Begin mosey back to COT. Front of school wall for jabs/toe lifts & air press/toe lifts. Walking Lunges between light posts. And we are at time. Mosey back to COT 1 minute over.

MOLESKIN

I really gotta pay more attention to my clock. Damn it lately. Other than that it was a great morning. We kept it moving, everyone pushed and we completed the ultimate goal – leaving (most of) it ALL out there!

I’m digging the new superlatives awards with these chains being awarded out when Mayhem’s Mash Crew is on site. It’s little fun things like this that add a fun spark to our community. Great idea and I hope more ideas breathe life into our workouts. Great work Mayhem (apologies if it was someone else’s idea)!

Speaking of which, I was given the opportunity to award it this AM. Chicken Little is one of the hardest working dude’s in Waxhaw F3. During the start of his career with us he has dragged out a bunch of neighbors and friends. During the start of the pandemic his neighborhood workouts were all the rave. Today he led the group most of the morning. He’s a great dude, a good friend and it was simple to award to him today.

Next up Mayhem awarded his crew with an award and after Name-o-Rama it was a no-brainer from me based solely on his title. Previously a professional hockey player for 9 years in Canada, Penalty Box recently joined F3 Waxhaw is a triple respect! (Insert gif of Wayne and Garth on their knees saying “we’re not worthy!!”

I mentioned during announcements and prayer that we should really look hard for other men that need to join us for these workouts. The world is a stress filled place, more than ever, and we need actively look for men to join us. We have everything from heavy cardio to mash. Not to mention the addition is 2nd and 3rd F opportunities. Let’s GO!
