So after over a year of being a part of F3, YHC decided to have his first Wolfpack Mountain Q on Black Friday. I know, surprising after so many Q’s, YHC has never Q’ed the Mountain. What makes that even more surprising is that Loyola is my Alma Mater! I’ve spent a lot of time on this campus so what better way to christen my first Wolfpack Q than to take the PAX on a good, old-fashioned college tour. Our group was small compared to normal Wolfpack Mountain but I say quality over quantity.
With a short disclaimer, we were off.
Mosey to space outside of Roussel Hall for warm-up:
- Windmills IC X15
- Hillbillies IC X20
- Forward Arm Circles IC X15

Short Mosey to first stop on tour Roussel Hall (College of Music) for:
A quick run up and down the stairs on side of building to continue warm-up.
Next Mosey to benches by our second stop Monroe Hall (Math and Science Building) for:
- Dips IC X15

Short Mosey to our third stop Miller Hall (College of Business). Spent a lot of time here!
- Rocky Balboas X20 then Bearcrawl to other side of street for Jump Squats X20 rinse and repeat X 5
Next mosey to our fourth stop Bobet Hall (Liberal Arts building) for some Mary:
- Flutter Kicks IC X20

Mosey to Quad with a quick wave to the Danna Center (Student Union) and Lindy Boggs Library. So the quad is surrounded by the Loyola dorms, Biever Hall for the Men, Buddig Hall for the Women and the Co-Ed Dorms. Yes PAX, I spent a little time in Buddig Hall. So, the thang:
Four Corners – BLIMP
- 5 Burpees at first corner then Cariacoa to Next Corner for
- 10 Lunges then Crab Crawl to next corner for
- 15 Imperial Walkers then backward run to next corner for
- 20 Merkins then Duck Walk to next corner for
- 25 Plank Jacks
Next Mosey to the bottom of Mountain. Yes, we can’t have a Wolfpack Mountain beatdown without the Mountain!
Single-line Indian Run up to the top.
After a quick Rudy 20 count at the top, YHC instructed all PAX to line up backs against the wall in one line for next exercise….GRATITUDE! PAX turn around and look at the amazing view of our City. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, YHC wanted the PAX to take a second to consider how lucky we are to live in this amazing city we call home and to have this incredible brotherhood of F3. We are truly blessed!
Time is running short so down the stairs and back to the virtual flag. Arrived right at 6:15. Let’s get in 10 Nolan Ryan’s each side OYO. Now we’re done.
Count-off, Name-o-rama, Intentions and Prayer. YHC feeling thankful so Coffeetaria on me for all PAX! 7 PAX joined for coffee and great F2.
Thankful and blessed to be part of F3!
