WTH May kick off.

0

Six of the West End’s finest gathered on this warm start to May. The old guys got to show the young buck what F3 endurance is all about. The thing: Head out from the flag towards Wellesley, Stop at the Wells Fargo parking lot for Little COP: 10 Don Q’s, 10 Ukrainian soldiers, 10 merkins and off again. Not too far down the road we passed a walker who ungraciously did NOT say hello. We thus had to stop for five Burpee as a penalty. The mosey continues hang right into some new territory and find two culdesacs that look perfect for Pintos version of a May “11”. Start at one of the cul-de-sac we do 10 Merkins, run to the other cul-de-sac do 1 WW2; run back to the other side one Merkin back again for 10 WW2s, Alternate pattern. Because May is the fifth month, we do five rounds of this. Also In celebration of May: the start beach season/ pool season we head to the lake at Wellesley. Another unfriendly walker gives us a stop for five more Burpees. We arrive in the parking lot overlooking the water and do 20 Merkins, 20 LBC, and 5 more Burpees. Mosey again down the trail to the basketball court. We haven’t been to in a long time and to our delight they redid the court with a very nice plastic floor and Wellesley emblem at the center. It is the NBA playoffs currently and seemed like a good idea to do three rounds of suicides on the basketball court. Once completed met at Center Court for another round of 20 Merkins 20 LBC’s, 5 more Burpees. Head back to the flag. Time got away from us a little bit and were a few minutes late, but we covered 4.2 miles, worked up a sweat, closed in prayer: celebration for all the graduations, weddings, and end of school with the month of May. The F3 brotherhood rocks.
