  • Six did Fat Amy

    I don’t Q this AO often enough so don’t have a set of routines I like. I found a circuit routine called Fat Amy. Don’t know why it is called that. I have nothing against Amy.

    After some warmups we slid into Fat Amy. According to Amy, it went like this:

    50 Squats no bell, 10 burpees

    40 WWII, 10 burpees

    30 Lunges no bell, 10 burpees

    20 Kettle bell swings, 10 burpees

    10 meter bear crawl, 10 burpees

    20 Kettle bell swings, 10 burpees

    30 Lunges with bell, 10 burpees

    40 WWII, 10 burpees

    50 Squats with bell.

    That only took 20 minutes and there was enough stamina to move to threesomes. First one involved running, curls and triceps. Second one involved running, sit and press and pull overs.

    The group was still ready for more so we did a modified curb crawl. Bear crawl to curb, 10 merkins, crawl bear, 10 derkins, repeat with 5.

    Back to the flag for a minute of LBCs to help Attila’s digestion and then a final climax with Freddie Mercury.

    Hope the workout helped everyone’s stamina. Fireman Ed missed his 50 squats. He can do them at home today.

  • Brunch Club vs Breakfast Club

    I thought it would be just another Friday morning run, but when I pulled up at the AO, there was Rosie talking to Gomer and Hutton. Was the Breakfast Club gang here to take out the Brunch Club gang? Lighthouse and Gypsy were soon there to back me up. We ended up with 12. Some to fight and some to watch. Before the music started, I gave poor instructions: North on Pump, go across Church on the left then right then explore some neighborhoods then come back”. Rosie and the Breakfast club gang were critical and so I told Rosie, “Don’t you ever come around here. Don’t wanna see your face, you better disappear” He could see the fire in my eyes and the words were really clear.

    Rosie then said “You better run, you better do what you can, don’t wanna see no blood, don’t be a macho man, you wanna be tough, better do what you can, so beat it, but you wanna be bad”

    So we ran and showed a funky and strong fight and realized it doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right.

    Currahee and running is a club for everyone. If you think they’re out to get you, you better run while you can as you don’t wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man. If you wanna stay alive, you better do what you can.

    You have to run like you’re really not scared, you’re playin’ with your life, this ain’t no truth or dare. Running can kick you, and then beat you and you’ll think its not fair. But keep running if you wanna be bad.

    Thanks to all 12 for showin’ how funky and strong is your fight. Remember, it doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right.

  • The Collector

    We ran 4 miles and learned about Gypsy and his collection of valuable coins, jewels, friends with shoes, teeth, star wars action figures, finger nails, Pokémon and KISS cards, owl pellets, D&D dice, hot sauce, troll dolls and celebrity hair. Some of that is true.

  • Better than being knee deep in a creek

    Four showed up this cold clear morning to take on this great AO. 3 of us ran a little over 3 miles and also did 7’s with burpees and merkins, a Quarter Pounder with merkins, LBCs, Squats and SSH and 2/3 of a triple check of WWIIs, Flutters and some more running. Pigskin got over a mile and a half in before doing laps around the school with stations of merkins and dips.

    It was cold but a gorgeous morning and the exercises looking up at the sky were the best.

    This was my first AO in a week with the Bear Creek trail race in the middle. And I felt it. Thankfully, my shoes were dry by this morning.

    Announcements:

    RVA Bluegrass Jam is on 4/22. Proceeds go to the Richmond Fisher House and Veteran Liberation Services. I will post more details in 3rd F channel. Volunteers are needed.

    Prayers for Gypsy as he works to get his farm going. The Barn is the next step and rumor is it will be called the Clinic.

  • White Pinto Pied

    Pinto and Lighthouse led me on a 5 mile pre-gridiron run.

    I then discovered that for $500-$600 you can purchase a white pinto pied snake.

    We need more white animal F3 names but White Pinto and White House are honorary members of this important group.

  • Piss

    We had a guest from F3 Blueridge, Inbox, and we took him on a tour of Short Pump Park. Pigskin stayed behind and worked his butt off while circling the school.

    After a 3/4 mile run and a short warm-up, we did a modified Cooper. Three exercises in a row, then a run around the path (about 150 meters) then repeat. Start with ten reps of each exercise, then 9, then 8, etc. The three exercises were Burpees, Squats and Merkins. Gets the heart rate up good for twenty minutes.

    We then did a triple check with WWI, WWII and a timer running around the pavilion.

    Then we smelled the dog urine. I preferred the fruit loops smell from Spider run.

    Then we ran a mile+ back to the flag.

    Total of 3.1 miles, a good work out and piss. You’re welcome.

  • In da Brunch Club

    When I pull out up front, you see the Honda on dubs
    When we roll 4 deep, it’s 4 miles in Brunch club
    Dogpilers heard I fuck with Vinny, now they show me no love
    When you only run 3 you know you’re in Breakfast Club,
    But, Lighthouse know, nothing change here with the pre run
    I see Mr. Rogers in Slack, he roll with the crowd that gives up
    If you watch how I move, you’ll mistake me for a runner or a pimp
    Been hit wit’ a few injuries, but I don’t walk wit’ a limp

    In the hood, in the Pump, they saying “Snake you hot like Dunkin”
    They like me, I want them to love me like they love Youngkin
    But holla, in RVA them Dogpilers tell ya I’m loco
    And the plan is to put the Brunch club game in a chokehold
    I’m full of focused man, my running on my mind
    Pinto also got 4 miles out the deal and is still on the grind
    Now Gomer said he feeling my style, he feeling my flow
    Even he showed up and is ready to go

    You can find me in Brunch club, 4 miles full of fun
    Look, Doggie pilers, we own the pre-run
    We’re into running four, not into jogging just for love
    But come to Breakfast club, if you into getting rubbed

  • She’ll like it too!

    Five warriors, either 50+ or feeling 50+ felt reborn this morning. Did they hit GNC for some Nugenix? Was it a post Valentine’s day buzz? Or was it running 3.3 miles, stopping every ~.5 miles to do 20 of an ab exercise and 10 burpees? You have to show up to know.

    But as a special Slack offer, WaThohuk is offering a complimentary two-week sample of its AO to viewers who text in the special promo code “DoyourwriteupsRogerRoger” to his cell. Plus, as an added bonus, customers can also receive a free sample bottle of Currahee weight loss supplement with their order.

    Act now!

  • A Brit, a Ukrainian and an American walk into bar after running 4 miles…

    Panting, the Brit tells the barkeep, “Give us ten shots of your best whiskey—quick!” So the barkeep sets them up and the three men knock them all back in seconds.

    “Why you drinking so fast?” asks the barkeep.

    “You’d drink fast too if you had what we have,” says the Urkrainian

    “Why, what do you have?” asks the barkeep.

    “Only twelve cents.”

  • Mythology of White Deer

    The Chickasaw story “Ghost of White Deer” is one of the most well known Native American legends.  I am going to tell it terribly and wrongly.

    A brave young Circus Maximus warrior, Atilla, fell in love with Bright Moon, the daughter of a chief (possibly a F3 runner with recent knee troubles). The chief did not like the young man, so he created a price for the bride that he was sure Atilla could not pay.

    “Bring me the hide of White Deer,” said the chief. The Circus Maximus believed that all white animals were magical. “The price for my daughter is one White Deer,” the chief laughed. He knew that an albino deer was very rare and would be very hard to find. White Deerskin was the best material to use in a wedding dress, and the best White Deer skin came from the albino deer.

    Atilla went to text and then went to his beloved, Bright Moon. “In one moon’s time, I will return with your bride price and we will be married. This I promise you.” Taking his best bow and his sharpest arrows, Atilla began to hunt.

    Three weeks went by. Atilla was hungry, lonely, still gassy and scratched by briars. Then, one night during a full moon, Atilla saw White Deer, who seemed to drift through the moonlight in a weird side straddle hop. White Deer walked around the school, leading Atilla, a down range Garden Nomad and the other six Circus Maximus band of brothers on an upper body focused workout.  At each red door, they did 10-20 reps of either curls, halos, lawn mower pulls, high pulls, sit and press along with some lunges, step ups and death crawls.

    At the end, when the deer was very close to where Atilla grunted, he shot his sharpest arrow. The arrow sank deep into the deer’s heart. But instead of sinking to its knees to die, White Deer began to run (which has not been seen for years). Instead of running away, he charged straight toward Atilla, with his red eyes glowing and his horns sharp and menacing…

    Time passed and Atilla did not return as he had promised Bright Moon. But Bright Moon never took any other young man as a husband, for she had a secret. When the moon was shining as brightly as her name, Bright Moon would often see White Deer in the smoke of the campfire, doing his weird side straddle hop, with an arrow in his heart. She lived believing White Deer would finally fall, and Atilla would return.

    To this day White Deer is sacred to the Circus Maximus people.
