18 brave and fearless warriors rose to greet the dawn of a new day.  According to legend, it went a little something like this.

COP: IC SSH X 20, DQ X 10, ACF X 15,  ACR X 15, LBC X 20, FM X 20, Merkin X 10 MIRACLE MILE: Mosey over to track with CBOS and complete four laps in the following style; Loop 1 – Each man runs lap solo with CBOS.

22 men escaped the fart sack  to gather at Mary Munford for a beatdown.  Pre-beatdown, YHC informed the PAX there would be no COP.  Little did the PAX know, we were about to conquer The Hard Way. The Hard Way (combination of Old Glory, a Beast and The Luck Horseshoe) PAX ran a mile.  (Followed by a quick disclaimer and introduction to F3 for the FNGs) PAX lined up on soccer field.  Run across the field stopping at the 25 yd line, 50 yd line and 75 yd line to perform six of the called exercises, run to other end…

Fourteen men assembled this morning, some for an old fashioned beat down, some to loosen the legs in preparation for great things.  At 0530 the former headed off campus while the latter stayed behind….or so we thought….. -Run to Church, perform a modified parking lot tracers COP- Wait, what the hell is Singer doing here?!?  BIG disclaimer pointed straight at him.  YHC DOES NOT want this to be the “remember that workout when Lab Rat broke Wedding Singer when he was supposed to be running BRR the next day?” moment.

A mighty 19 gathered at Mary Munford to welcome Lab Rat back from his hiatus of the AO.  Mary Munford ES must have known that he was coming, because they kept the fields closed for another week.  Lab Rat sadly put the frisbee back in the truck and came up with something different (not really, but it makes a better story, pulling emotion into it and all): COP to include SSH (obviously), IW, DQ, arm circles, hand release merkins, and LBC’s THANG(S) -Beast- On the tennis courts, do a standard beast.  Excersises included merkins, WW2 situps, squats, diamond/wide merkins, Freddie…
