8 posted today to put in some speed work on the track.  Here’s how it went down:

Mosey to track for COP: 25 SSH, 25 Don Quixote, 25 Mtn Climbers, 20 Imperial Walkers

Jiggy jog .5 miles for warm-up and then run 90% 2 minutes on, 1 min off, 1 min on, 30 secs off, 30 secs on, 30 secs off, and repeato 4x

Mosey to field near long jump for agility drills:

• Fast feet between the cones and pipe run down other side- AMRAP 3 min
• High knees through cones and low backwards run down other side- AMRAP 3 min
• 3 Min box jump Tabata (Yep, I know that’s not a full tabata, but we were short on time and Wilson needed several minutes of Mary.)

Circle up for Mary: V-ups, Freddy Mercury, Heals to Heaven

Mosey to parking lot for COT.

NMM:  Thanks to the south side crew for letting me Q today.  To everyone’s credit, the instructions for the track work were to go faster than a conversational pace.  Toga didn’t hear much mumble chatter and took that as a sign of people working hard.  Wilson might has well have worn a trash bag as he posted with a long sleeve shirt on and proceeded to knock over most of the cones in his way #BeerShirt #WrestlerWeightloss.  Brain Tumor apparently discovered a new event called the “Beer Mile” which may need to be done as a CSAUP in the near future.  Start enjoying Bud heavy to get prepped.  Lastly, Conspiracy and Toucan may be unveiling an Army PRT in the future as another baseline for fitness levels.

Stay Classy,

The MOLESKIN

Pretty nice morning at #SOT. Glad to see some faces when I rolled up. Yes, I am afraid of the dark and still have some reservations running from the house. Wilson’s Wife offered to run me up there. I thanked her and walked away with my head down. 🙁 Oyster pointed out the obvious this morning stating when we started by saying “um, it’s not dark out”, YHC tried to run faster, but hes quick!

YHC went into the AO thinking THIS IS THE DAY a FULL burpee Beast. If you read above, well I got smoked after the first round! TYA & Oyster chatted most of the beast.

At the end TYA was sharing that he woke up in a bad mood and he was happy now that he came across the river to the land of happiness.

The video is just because it should make you laugh and brighten your day. If you not a “hate” you might just remember when the video came out on MTV (for the young guys – the channel used to play videos before reality TV – Downtown Julie Brown was my fav VJ! – Said it earlier, issues)

Fun workout gents. Thankd for showing up!

Mosey to Shovel Flag & COT

Moleskin
YHC appreciates the great turnout for my virgin Q.  A few passed up an opportunity for a hill run to participate in this sports-themed workout.  YHC attempted to introduce some agility into this particular workout and unfortunately cannot erase some of the visuals.

It’s apparent that YHC did not start off with enough variety for Fudd as he complained about the repetitiveness of the weave.  Perhaps next time YHC will go with burpees on both sides of the goals.  At one point YHC heard someone mention how much they love burpees, which reminded me of how much YHC hates Christian Laettner.  From here on out the weave shall be referred to as the “I HATE Christian Laettner”.

TYA quickly found his groove during the cycle, accurately predicting the next series of exercises halfway through the single series.  It’s really hard to get anything past that guy.  Must be due to the Ted Williams reruns he watches on ESPNClassic.  #respect.  YHC resisted the urge to audible the home run series with Conspiracy’s suggestion of burpees.  There is always next time.

The track workout brought out the best in Swirly.  Someone in the PAX opined that Swirly looks like Michael Jackson while skipping.  YHC suggests someone bring a white glove and a black fedora to the next workout to find just how far this comparison goes.

Pre-pre-order in effect for #Dogpile shirts.  Let Bleeder know so that he can put the official pre-order up.

Thanks to Wilson for nudging me to Q at last week’s Source of Truth.  Good fun.

The flame of 8 brave souls could not be put out by a little rain. (curb crawls on the other hand…)

COT by Swirly

Moleskin

Swirly and YHC rolled into SOT early so that YHC could put the tools in place that made the SOT T-shirt famous; LugNut had already arrived and planted the Shovel Flag. The beginning of Summer for some has us out of bed a few minutes earlier for some reason!

Wilson arrived just before the first Mosey to claim that he has only been awake for 8 Minutes. Nice to be that close to the AO.

DK was in rare form, inserting his squat imperial walkers on his own.

Chum Bucket was LIFOing this am, he wished he had stopped for Gas versus arriving in the middle of the Curb Crawls. I can recommend Exxon gasoline products, especially for high performance F3 vehicles that might been running a few minutes late to an AO.

Swirly noticed Splinter was working hard in the Curb Crawls, Splinter you can thank your SOT buddy LugNut for introducing them to the PAX.

On the ride back to north of the River, YHC thought somebody was following him with their brights on; but it was only TYA driving without his shirt on. Even on a dark rainy day, It doesn’t appear that your skin has seen the light of day.

Annoucements

Bring a friend to Saturdays Dogpile, Sippy’s VQ

It was good to see Clooney back in action at SOT.  Not to mention the extra credit he earned by tapping the goal post of the get & burps.  Bleeder tapping the base of the goal post does not count.

Speaking of Bleeder he almost pulled off the Jimmy Snuka flying EH this morning.   We are hopeful to see Keith at a workout soon.
YHC picked a much too heavy “boulder” for the Four Corners workout.  What was supposed to be a leg session turned into an arms & back workout.  Sometime the best laid plans ……

Wilson & Bleeder swapped elite level athlete positions today.  Bleeder at the front and Wilson hung out with YHC.  Thanks Wilson.

It should be noted that the rock carrying exercise was a demonstration of the extra lbs YHC carries on a normal workout.  Eat healthy fellas

Our Hero, otherwise known as Fudd, was contemplating if getting out of bed this morning was a good idea.  I’m not sure if the workout was tough enough for an Elite International Athlete but after a slight jab at Bleeder’s lunge technique and the size of his “Rock” which according to news reports was the approximate size of TYA’s stone, it appears all is ok in the world of Fudd and everyday people.

Toga is still trying to get back in F3 shape, good idea to keep coming cross the river.  Good luck taking on the guys in the Sandhills.

 

See you next time!

Four men decided to leave the fart sack for the awesome smell of diesel in the morning!

Got a clear lesson on where the straight part of the track begins. Also the full track is 400 m.

Great job today gents. I’ll be sure to let you know when I schedule the full beast of burpees! Enjoy the video. We all have our role!

Welcome to FNG, Parking Spot, way to hang today.  I hope to see you back often.

Great to see Oyster today as well.  His first appearance on his home court.

Wilson was EARLY!  Yaay!

Bleeder continues to pick up speed.  Strong contender on the King of Hearts today.  YHC believes he took at least one victory.

BT & Wilson killed it knocking down at least 100 burpees in the 10 minutes of Burps.  Awesome job guys.

See you next time!

 

Six brave men started the mosey on a BEAUTIFUL morning, then Wilson came rolling in as if he were auditioning to drive for Bleeders race team. Then it became 7!

The Thang:

• Once Wilson got caught up to the PAX he reversed directions…….yes with Weinkie in hand.
• Mosey to rear of school for COP. At this point YHC was tying his shoes and did not realize we had TWO FNG’s. Wedding SInger GLADLY pointed this out and started the disclaimer. Once YHC got his bearings straight, it was all about getting started!

The Moleskin:

Here is how it went down today.

• Wilson was late (about 5 seconds – seems to be a recurring theme), but got caught up and regained the Q from Wedding Singer who assumed the charge.Goose, Lug Nut & Singer were more than happy to start busting YHC’s balls out of the gate. 🙁
• YHC had intended to bring the serious pain and attempt a full beast of ALL burpees, but decided that the COT was an important time to warm up so no injuries happened. Ok, it was really because I was late.
• Once the COT was done, the Weinkie went away! Who can;t remember burpees! At one point I heard Wedding Singer cry out for someone to deliver me a Weinkie. Mumble chatter was heard during the Burpee fest from Singer & Lug Nut, but Singer quickly got called out on his form  by YHC!
• Can’t remember for what reason, but Goose was providing YHC grief (very uncharacteristic – NOT) so, instead of going easy and doing another exercise for the 3rd round we did BURPEES!
• YHC contiues to try to pack too much into a workout, but will get the hang of it soon…………….
• Great to see TWO FNG’s today! Welcome Kozar & Clooey & great job by all!
• TClaps to RIcky Bobby today for pushing the limit! During one of the Burpee sessions, he was quickly approaching Goose to try to claim 1st place.#RESPECT Maybe next burpee session. I hear Ricky Bobby likes to be hard on his equipment and push it hard!
• See you boys in the gloom!

Great to see Earthworm at SOT.  He’s always bringing the max.  Somehow he survived an automotive tussell with Bleeder on the way down Old Hundred.  Not many survive those Earthworm, Well done.

Fertilizer, small fibia’s, and 6 women discussions were heard in the mumble chatter during the lunges.  Not sure how the convo got started but it did make the next 5 minutes of lunges bearable.  It was also nice to help out Conspiracy and pick up his jacket all the way on the other side of the field.  He must have been pretty gassed to be walking so leisurely.

Bleeder’s apparel store was open in the trunk of his car.  Not 100% sure what he was selling but it looked like some were buying.

YHC and DK discussed the trials and tribulations of installing ceiling fans.  While YHC’s color blindness is an issue DK was able to repair manufacturing defects.  If the F3 Nation needs assistance, DK is the man to go to.

Afterwards Bleeder and YHC ventured out to meet our man in the press box.  Turns out his name is Reggie and he’s been living there for about a month. Reggie gave us a brief spiritual lesson and was off onto his daily adventure via Old Hundred Road.  We wish him the best.

See you next time!
