  • No Downrangers – from Charmin

    Much to everyone’s chagrin, there were no Downrangers, however there were 5 ruckers and 3 runners for a total of 8 pax who beat the battle of 15 degrees and made it out.

  • Hey MacGyver, does HC=Home Catnapping!? – from Bolt

    4.5 got after S&M + 6.5 ran (Charmin was the .5 x 2) = 11 got better in the gloom.…except MacGyver; apparently he redefined “HC.”

    Expand our circle through EHing and Kotters. Who haven’t u called lately that you should…?

  • “A Bottle of Kaopectate” and HYDRATE! – from Bolt

    While we were minis Scrum fixture, Space Cowboy, due to kidney stones (hydrate!), Madoff, after prodding by Charmin, returned to the gloom for the first time in about two months. It was super muggy and I’m pretty sure the pax were already soaked before we even started the warm-up, which of course included the bolt warm-up theme song. Frac’s favorite line would prove to be almost predictive as Madoff pushed through the restart button that comes with being a Kotter. Luckily, he did not actually splash Merlot, but certainly felt like he was headed there.

    Warmorama:
    Hip Circles (clockwise) x 5 (in cadence)
    Hip Circles (counterclockwise) x 5 (in cadence)
    Abe SLOWgodas x 10 (in cadence)
    Open/close the gate each side x 10
    Tie Fighters x 15 each way

    Abe Vigodas x 10 (in cadence)

    Appreciators

    YHC is so appreciative of the role that F3 has been in my life for just over 2 years now. It has helped me grow, not just physically, but mentally and as a leader. YCH cannot express the value that has been added to my life through this group of men who get up early and workout. It was a pleasure toto kick off the third decade leading the Pax through a beatdown for the Ages.

  • Charmin’s Last Q (As a 29 Year Old) – from Charmin

    For once, there were more ruckers than runners, and no KnOTers.

    That being said, we kicked of the beat down with a count off of 9, then Ruckers rucked, and Runners ran, meeting at the exit of the park.

    While paces varied, good fellowship and conversation was had by all; all that is except Bolt who was running a 10 minute mile with his ruck, and then would knock out 100 burpees in 6 minutes while he waited for those of us who were closer to a 16 minute mile.

    This beatdown was a great one to have as YHC’s last Q as a 29 year old. Everyone came, pushed themselves, and we were able to get a great and sweaty beatdown in in 45 minutes (thanks to the humidity).

    This past year has been one of growth for YHC, and F3 played no small part in that. While the “hate” will (hopefully) go away, the love of the men of F3 will continue to carry on.

  • OYO – from Charmin

    7 started with 7 finishing.

    Kennah Brah hit the inclines. YHC rucked the neighborhood. Runners did whatever they do and Rou kept his Knees over his Toes proving his consistency and commitment.

    Thumb War even found some golf balls.

    COT we prayed for colleagues experiencing change and gratefulness for new life.
