What Went Down:
This is a Brushback concoction and it sucks for real (miss you, Brushback!). I’ll be completely honest – I was waaaay in the pain cave for the majority of this workout. Hammer was polite enough to partner with me, and there was some iron-sharpening and horse-whispering going on. And I was mentally flatline for about 35 minutes.
Big kudos to Margin Of Error who fell on his face during partner carrys at the start of the workout, and just rolled into COT all bloody like a badass. Also, this was his second F3 workout. It doesn’t get easier, brother, but you will get hit in the face less (hopefully).
Announcements:
Church On The Street this Sunday. Check the F3 South Charlotte news page for the link.
Mud Run this weekend. Do people still do this or is everyone just jaded from the timing incident?
Thank you all for making SOFAWIB your choice for your Tuesday exercise-induced facial trauma.
