Another WTF Q from the Spring and another fine. After a stop at the Roger Roger cement pad warmup area off John Rolfe, Roger Roger took us to West Broad Village again for an assortment of exercises. Don’t remember much else. Is the fine bigger if you are the site Q? Yes, says the Upchuck book of rules. 40 burpees owed.
Roger Roger had his chance to post this but soon after his Q was in surgery and recovery. This workout was a giant 4 corners in WB Village. I don’t recall the four exercises so will pretend it was 1000 burpees, 800 WW2s, 1200 Merkins and 1 flutter kick. I do remember we did it twice. Guessed who was there–if missing or you should not get credit, let me know. Late fee is ten burpees per backblast.
Three of us showed up this morning to take on Day 3 of 30 in the 300 Kettlebell Challenge. The air was thick and heavy, slowing us down a bit but we powered through.

Alexander Graham Bell once said, “When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.” This morning, 31 HIMs collectively said hold my beer Mr. Bell and showed up despite a temperature of 78 degrees, feels like 85 degrees and a skosh of humidity. As The Green Mile (RIP) officially shut its doors, a new one swung wide open at The Woodshed—with the hinges practically ripped off thanks to Teddy KGB, who somehow accurately predicted 12 FNGs! You…
Three of us came out to sweat it out with weight on our backs. We knocked out just under 3 miles. Cap Gains picked up a used pontoon boat and is fixing her up piece by piece. Beaver’s toughing it out without AC at home for the moment. Meanwhile, Choo Choo’s scheming on how to make his move to Manteo, North Carolina permanent, dreaming of a life filled with workouts and fishing. Don’t Waste The Day!
8 gents arrived, including Splinter who was not taking requests for passengers today… A prescribed out and back across the bridge was administered. Fall weather can’t come soon enough…. Saab abides

Machismo took the Q as 16 Hims conquered the fields of No Toll for Merkin inspired workout. F3 Mission was read: To plant grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. Disclaimer was given, but not as good as the one Dookie read to us. Wamarama: various exercises were done and intro to 300 given. Counting down from 24 sequentially with an exercise totals 300. The goal for the day was to complete 300 Merkins. Props given to DK and here to Rosie (330 and 329) cumulative appearances at No Toll. When YHC thought he…
A dozen of Richmond’s best got together for their own rendition of “We Are The World”. As many of you know, there comes a time when we heed a certain call and when the reptiles and amphibians must come together as one. Senor Frog moseyed us to the outfield and we did an assortment of warmups in cadence including SSH, DQ, Copperhead Squats, Merkins, WWII, LBC, Scorpion Kicks and probably others. He then led us to the blacktop of 2 rounds of four corners. 25 count the first go around of merkins, LBCs, squats & pickle pounders and then a…
