  • March On – from Einstein

    Short disclaimer …

    Warmup:
    all 15xIC; side straddle hops, toe touch, imperial walkers, drew brees, knee highs, good mornings

    Mosey:
    to the front of the Taj-Mahal, circle up around the flag-pole, for the MROF (Merkin Ring Of Fire)
    all pax do a merkin then sidecrawl counter-clockwise, then repeat in the clockwise direction, with a set of ten jumps squats in between

    Mosey:
    to the top level of the St. Tammany Parish Courthouse parking garage, line up and at each of the parking stripes, do a burpee (twenty five in total) then follow with a core exercise.
    We repeated this sequence about six times, inserting a different challenge for the stripes

    Mosey:
    back to the Gipper statue as time expires,
    count-o-rama, Bushwacker leads us out with a prayer.

    It’s always fun running around downtown Covington, and thanks guys for letting me lead today.

  • We hid the coupons – from Waterpik

    T Claps to Akbar we now have LOGOED cinder block coupons at the Marsh again. And we didn’t “hide” them behind the restrooms . Who knows? Maybe they won’t disappear this time. And if someone wants them this time around, they’ll have to carry them from their new hiding place near the back of the field to the street. At that point their forearms will be swoll so maybe they’ll want to join F3.

    Mosey down the trace a couple of blocks to Jackson Ave. mandeville doesn’t have many hills but YHC found one there, and made a mental note that it would be a good mew spot to incorporate into a beatdown at the marsh.

    Main thang: Bear crawl up hill, jog back.
    Crawl bear up hill, jog back
    Partner carry up hill, jog back.
    (Shooter was an absolute animal)
    5 sprints up hill, jog back
    Rinse and repeat, then head back to AO

    Thanks to Akbar for praying us out

  • Gnats 1 PAX 1 – from TurboTax

    It was a draw. The Gnats mobilized early and mounted a fierce attack, but the PAX persevered and evened the score with a strong showing. It all started with a burpee heavy warmup which, in all honesty, wasn’t much of a warmup at all. It was The Thang from the bell. Burpees were performed with a sprinkling of standard warmup exercises added to the mix and then it was on to the main event…PAX vs sandbag. Dividing up into teams of two and three, we moved back and forth in 10 yard increments carrying our sandbags in various fashions while bear crawling, running, burpee long jumping, etc in between rounds. We then dropped the sand bags and ran a few sprint relays wrapping things up with some Mary after returning to the Shovel Flag. Countorama nameorama and Russo prayed us out. Thanks for letting me lead guys and making us all look good for the little old lady videographer. Hammer, did you remember to give her Bushwacker’s contact info?

  • Margaritas on the Rucks week 1 – from Fracsac

    11 Pax made a choice to take the DRP on their journey to get right and posted to the Mothership. But 7 of those were posting to the Bawbwa Wawa and chose to push themselves with a ruck workout. With a couple shovel flags planted, disclaimer was given, then:

    Ruck up and mosey to the Great Lawn. Dismount rucks for a quick warmup:

    IW x 15
    Abe Vigodas x 10
    GG x 10
    AC x 10 both ways
    SSH IC x 31

    Time to get down to business with the Alamo Margarita on the Rucks “Ruck ‘n Roll”. Sort of like an IPC for Ruckers!

    As many rounds as you can compete in 45 minutes:

    -Ruck Chin ups x 10 with ruck held
    -8 count body builders x 10 wearing ruck
    -Flutter kicks x 10 with ruck held

  • Same ole, same ole – from Waterpik

    It was the same ole, same ole this morning at the mandeville city hall scramble. But that’s the beauty of F3, it’s the consistency. Yes, some of the regulars were out, and yes, there have been some AOs where numbers are low, but it’s still good to get out there in the gloom and hit the streets of Old mandeville for our weekly 5K. Here’s to a strong close to the week, men!

  • Rock’n out on 311 Day – from Fracsac

    Ok, so no 311 played, but probably should have! 3 Ruckers and 3 runners converged at Pontiff to get right. 3 ran and 3 rucked like Bosses!
