Date: 2025-06-26 AO: peak-51 Q: Spammer PAX: kirby, slim_fast, sledge, lois, Spammer, madison FNGs: None COUNT: 6 WARMUP: SSH, Squats and Sharon Towers while we waited on one late arriving PAX, Next headed over to Seaboard where a fan and music were apparently left on all night (most likely because of storm related power outage). Here we did step ups and dips x2. THE THANG: Headed across the street to the parking lot across from the new construction site by the library. Did exercises in each spot. Everyone used a die to roll for the number of exercises they performed in said spot. Pax kept the same die count all the way down the lot progressing to the next empty spot when they were done. We repeated this several times, performing I believe 8 different exercises in total. (There was another die at the end of the lot that pax could roll for a new exercise count on the way back up the lot). MARY: ANNOUNCEMENTS: Today is last day to sign up for Horsey 1/2 and get a shirt! COT: Orange Whip

Date: 2025-06-25 AO: meathead Q: voodoo PAX: flipper, Uncle Leo, Unplugged, Soul Glo, voodoo FNGs: None COUNT: 5 5 pax gathered under the heat dome at Calvary yesterday morning at 0530. Most pax chose to warm up before the warm up, although that seemed unnecessary given the heat and humidity out on the endless asphalt plain.

THE THANG: The main course today was the Armor Building Complex: 2 double cleans, 1 double press, 3 double front squats. The weinke called for 15-20 minutes of EMOM. The Q was thinking 18 rounds, but the pax wanted the full 20, so that’s what they got.
Complex: 2 rounds every 2:00 of 5 swings, 5 snatches, 5 presses, and 5 goblet squats. 2 rounds every 2:00 of 5 swings, 5 snatches, 5 presses, and 5 SLDLs (1 side per round)

Thriple Nickel

Date: 2025-06-26 AO: the-phoenix Q: midriff PAX: wildturkey, Melons FNGs: None COUNT: 3 WARMUP: In the parking lot to give late pax a chance to arrive. After 2 minutes, we’re on our way to the trails. Cross the river, through the woods and here we are at Community House Middle School running track. THE THANG: Today’s theme is partner-related exercises. How to do this with a threesome? Get creative and modify. Wheelbarrow carries 50 meters, roll into BBSUs, wheelbarrow carry back, then more BBSUs. Team leap frog 100 meters, then Indian run (with burpees) around the track. Triple broad jump burpees for 100 meters, h/t to SweetWater for the recommendation. Elbow plank while one pax sprints 50 meters and sprints 50 meters back. Another lap around the track, this time stopping for 5x plankjack shoulder taps, which proved to be next to impossible for wildturkey to execute. Save the best for last: partner carries around the track, then 2 final rounds of bear crawl and BBSUs. Time to make our way home to launch, this time with a bit more light on the trails to guide our return. MARY: She was with us on the track before we scared her off. ANNOUNCEMENTS: Run your race and challenge yourself: Horsey McHorseArse, Mountain Rumble, Ultra50k – plenty of silly options out there. COT: Thanks wildturkey for the opportunity to step in and lead. Couldn’t think of a better way to start the day. Keep crushing it Melons, great to have you out at The Phoenix!

ultimate 6/20/2025

Date: 2025-06-25 AO: ufo-ultimatefriz Q: Spyglass PAX: David Baker, Victoria, Chandelier, Zipper, Situation, Spyglass, Pfeffer, biden, peaches, bullystick, Wario FNGs: None COUNT: 11 Winners/ yellow: Fly Vicky Chandy Zipper Biden Situation
Losers/ pink: Spyglass Peaches Bully Warrio Pheffer
Low morale to start, with barely 10 present and chandelier stretching, but refusing to change out of his trendy white crocs. Fly encouraged us to get out of our feelings and play ball. So ball was played.
The game Pink jumped out to an early 2-0 lead, spy inquired about the mercy role protocol, prompting some banter amongst yellow. From there, yellow kicked it into gear and played neck and neck, tit for tat as they say. In the end, they emerged victorious. There’s a good life lesson in there but I’m too disgusted by the outcome to analyze further. In other news, Peaches thew some corner dimes, Wario is a field General, Fly calls his teammates “babe” and spy attempted to get open by crawling through the legs of Chandelier. Quote of the day, “he’s got them birthing hips”.
COT: Sign up for Marta’s blood drive. If you love your kids, consider camping them camping with F3 dads soon. Marta and Fly had great morale doing so last weekend.

ultimate 6-7-25

Date: 2025-06-06 AO: ufo-ultimatefriz Q: David Baker PAX: Victoria, Wu Tang is for the children, Shank, Broken Arrow, Pfeffer, Spyglass, Zipper, Situation, Fruity Pebbles, Mayo, Crawdad, Smokey, Spikeball, Yeti, Toad, Vicky, Peaches, bullystick, wario FNGs: None COUNT: 20 For your Slackly duties:
Frisbee 6/6/25
Vicky showed up with pennies and discs. Sadly they had not made it out of his car since Monday. We divide up lights and darks But the force was unbalanced and the dark side was clearly stronger. Counted off and went shirts and skins instead.
Toad – skin Sitch – shirt fruity – shirt Mayo – shirt Crawdad – shirt Vicky – skin woo – skin peaches – skin smoky – shirt shank – skin Wario – shirt Spikeball – short broken arrow – skin Pffer – skin Biden – shirt spy – skin Bullystick skin Yeti – shirt Zipper – skin FWM – shirt
Skins destroyed shirts 13-8. Chaotic first few points with bodies flying all over the field. Game settled down into a Defensive back-and-forth with skins going up a couple points. Shirts evened things up at six before the turnover bug bit and skins grabbed seven breaks in a row. A few points in garbage time gave shirts a slightly more respectable eight. Both dads were back. Shank had one drop in the end zone from hands still wet with baby wipes. Otherwise, not much rust on those two who now seem destined to team up after their time together in the hospital. Linebacker Toad had the hit of the year going low on fruity on a crossing route. Toad took the worst of it but came out unscathed. Foul was called. Bully Stick coached a lot, had a few hammers that worked out pretty well, and one sick dime to the back left corner of the end zone. JoMo and fresh both surprisingly absent after an early hard commits on the text chain. Breakfast next Friday.
