By this point it’s 5:34, and I figure I’ll just go on a nice little jog and workout by myself. I start putting the flag back in the car thinking it’s not needed. Then a car pulls up, with someone inside that I don’t recognize. I ask him if he’s there for F3.
His name is Ken (aka “Risky Business”). He’s relatively new to F3, and said he’s still wiped from the previous Saturday’s workout. So I figured I would modify everything and make it a little lighter on the workload. Mostly some easy running with some legs and some core.
First, we cross over to the lakeside, turn left, and do a jog all the way until we hit a construction zone and can’t go any further. Just under a mile according to google maps. We stop, and begin the first exercise.
We use the lightposts as a marker. Broad jumps to the first post. Bear crawl to the next. Lunge to the third. And inch worm to the fourth. This takes a good bit of time, the posts were much farther apart than I thought, and we take a short breather. Begin running back towards the cars.
Get back to the flag, and do some core workouts. LBTs, Superman, LBCs, flutter kicks, windmills, and rowers. My first attempt at counting in rhythm was pretty sheisty. Then we finish with the roundup, we each gave some pretty heartfelt shout-outs. Risky Business took the prayer.
All in all it was pretty enjoyable and memorable. Big love to Risky Business for showing up and making sure I wasn’t flying solo on my VQ.
