For some reason, YHC agreed to do some EC with EZ Rider & Defib this morning. Dirt was invited when at The Storm, so a total of 4 for some 0500 EC. Found Stinky Bird out doing his own version while out and Gastone returning upon our arrival back.
Six others joined the crew by the time 0530 arrived on this foggy morn.
We knocked out The Pledge before beginning warmup.
WarmUp:
It would take far too long to describe what we did for the first part of warmup. It was something YHC found on the internet, described as a way to stretch/warm all muscle groups. Whether it did or not, you will have to ask the attendees. After that we did MNC IC x 10.
The Thang:
Off we go on a mosey. Give the PAX the choice of left or right as the destination was the same, just the route in question. Left if was, so down by the bank we go, past the AutoZone and behind the Planet Fitness. For the first time in weeks, there wasn’t anyone camped out at the ramp. So Bear Crawls it is. Two rounds and Monkey Humpers while waiting on the six, then 25.
Onward toward the Food Lion, stopping at the stairs and curb (due to social distancing) for 25 calf raises x 2. Meander onwards to the Food Lion.
4 Corners with 25 SSH in corner 1, 25 LBCs in corner 2, 25 Squats in corner 3 and 25 Merkins in corner 4.
Repeat.
Move over to the nearest wall for a little wall sitting with air presses thrown in for good measure, Then a quick mosey up the hill to the entrance for 50 Mtn Climbers.
Once that was done, back down the hill to the closest light post. YHC asked DIrt and Outhouse for exercises. The choices were Dying Cockroaches and Imperial Walkers respectively. So its time for 50’s (just like 11’s but the total is 50 and the count is by 5) between the light posts. About halfway through the IW were changed to Hillbillies. Like most of the things we do, once you do enough, the suck factor grows. Doing this many IW or HB really got old.
Time was running short, so mosey toward home. We stopped in front of the Planet Fitness for a quick test to see who reads backblasts. YHC repeated the trivia question related to St. Patrick’s Day. From the sounds of it (excluding Dirt as he was at The Storm), 2 or 3 had read said BB and got the right answer. So only 3 burpees were done.
Mosey on to the bank for a quick 25 Dips x 2 sets before continuing on the long way to SnoBalls.
And that is Time!

Moleskin:
Today marks 50 years in this world for me. I am literally in the best shape i can ever remember being in. I am ~#100 down in 15 months.
Thanks to all the men of F3. You continue to push, pull and inspire.
In these dark times, look to the Lord. This trial we are going through is meant to draw us close to Him and teach us to rely on Him. From The Sword this week:
Isaiah 26:4
Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting ROCK.
Until tomorrow
Watts Up powering down.
