Day: June 15, 2022

YHC was originally scheduled to Q on Thursday, but had a meeting come up.  Wirenut graciously let me take his on Tuesday, thank you Wirenut!

Start with the mission of F3, to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men, for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Time hits with four pax.  Not as hot as was forecasted, but still plenty hot.  90 is better than 100.  SSH IW gravel pickers and some stretching, then Blart decides to join for five total.  Whenever you can get there is fine.

Mosey to upper side of parking lot.  Stop before soccer fields, move to one side of parking lot.  Time for accelerators.  25 hand release merkins.  Run to other side of lot.  25 hand release plus 25 smurf jacks.  Run to other side of lot.  25 of first two plus 25 big boys.  Run to other side and add 25 flying squirrels.  Think i hear some profanities being spewed at this point.  Run to other side to start coming down.  Back to big boys, smurf jacks and hand release.  Run back and drop the big boys.  Other side for one more round of hand release to make 175 of those.  That’s enough.

Few minutes remain, run to hill on other side for triple nickel.  Squats at bottom, jump squats at top.

Mosey back to flag for pledge.

Announcements: 2nd F lunch, F3 dads 6/18, pt test and trash pick up 6/25, tubing 7/30

Thank you for the opportunity to lead.  Stay hydrated.   SYITG

There was some confusion over who had the Q, but Tesla graciously stepped aside and let me get it.  There were some runners that came I (Quiche, Buckeye and Sargent), but only the big cheese and supreme potentate of F3 Gastonia had the testicular fortitude to stay.

Flagpole for Pledge

Principles of F3:

1. Are free of charge
2. Are open to all men
3. Are held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold
4. Are led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion
5. End with a Circle of Trust

Mission of F3:  Our three Fs stand for Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith and our mission is to Plant, Serve and Grow men’s small workout groups with the intent of invigorating male leadership throughout the community.

Warmup:  SSHx15 IC, Gravel Pickers x10IC, ROL/LOR, Moroccan Night Clubs x15IC, Arm circles

Thang:

Move to the track where I set up cones for the CrossFit Metcon workout.  At the four cones, do the following.

10 merkins, walk to next cone, 20, next cone, 30, 40.  Run a lap.  Repeat, but with squats and then sit-ups or leg lifts.

After this, we go down to 10, 20, 30.  Then 10, 20.  There was a lot of work done and some chastising about form and then some biting back.  I love the conflict because we grow.  When someone calls me out, I think about that on how I can be better.  Maybe I am not as good as I can be, but we are better than we were.

One minute left so we line up for some bear crawl slalom in honor of T. McBadass.

Announcements: 6/18 dads at Folsom, Regular Folsom is cancelled so go to Old School at 7, Twisted Goat today at 12 for lunch, 6/25 fitness test (proctors needed) and trash pickup after, 7/4 sandlot being changed by Flintstone so stay tuned, 7/30 tubing, regional convergence coming up.
