10 of SOJ’s finest looking fellows were joined by a lost Westhoean to at the velvety smooth confines of the Twin Team Lounge. Doozy went off to log miles while the rest of the PAX were enthused by YHC’s date reminder of this being the last day of the month and traditions need to be upheld so they are not forgotten. Handshake arrives with 24 seconds to spare, here is how things went down.

Short mosey around the drop off circle to collect the tardy El Woods, circle up for introductions and disclaimers. Brief warmarama that included SSH’s, Helis, Dead Man Hang, Fudds Wife, Wilsons Wife, Broga and DQ’s.
Let us begin the Murph:

Mosey down to James River High School Stadium, 1 lap around the track and back up to Bettie Weaver playground to complete Mile 1 of the Murph. 10 rounds of the following: 10 pull ups, 20 merkins (hand release for some), 30 squats. After each round, run across the field and back. After 6 rounds, YHC modified for time to perform a set of exercises at each end of the field using the opposite playground as well. Still had to cut short due to time, with most of the PAX getting around 8 rounds completed.

Extra Credit was handed out to all participants due to YHC poor time management. Numbers Names Announcements, YHC took us out.

Chili Cook Off at Casa de L Woods in March. See slack for deets.

NMS: YHC took the Q thinking of a loungy style beatdown but Q energy took over with the reminder of the Twin Team Murph tradition being on the last friday of the month. Will utilize both playgrounds in the future to save time. Not much conversation to be had during a Murph as it is truly a burner of a beatdown. Always good to have the Tarrington Clown Car show up and a pleasant surprise for Handshake to visit his juvenile stomping grounds. Thank you fellas for the opportunity to start the weekend off well. Enjoy the weekend however you feel is best. Well done boys.

Q sheet open. 9:00 PM. YHC realized his first Q was Valentines Day week, must have been 2015, at No Toll. Time to resurrect a few things recollected.

Parking lot empty, YHC hoped someone would join the festivities. In comes Rosie and Sanchez, and off we went. YHC knew Sanchez hadn’t experienced the joy of Twin Team yet, the namesake. Warm up at the base (yes of course there was a honeymoon suite) and head up for some LOVE hill. Couple different versions as we made our way to the top – bear crawls, lunges, Ukrainian Soldiers, Bernies. Ring of Fire merkins in between and ring of fire heals to heaven. Mosey back down to the school. 10 pull ups on the bars or whatever you could muster. Double suicide across the basketball courts from the 10 year prior Q. Some abs at the end.

Thanks to the two amigos who joined YHC. Good conversation as we made our way around. The total mileage upon completion was a serendipitous 2.14 miles. Enjoy the holiday, however it is that you do or not celebrate it.

By the way, where’s The Lounge pax at these days?

The Lounge looked bromantic with just Rosie and DTH doing some loungy lazy latecomer loops in the lot until Salt Lick showed up to make it a perfect Menage A Trois. The trio ambled down to join the hottest Swamp Party of 2025 and found a gaggle of endorphin-driven Draper-lovers making casual conversation as they finished Mile 4. The bootcamp trio joined the pack for a lap, then broke off for a brief warmerama. Triple Check was the obvious choice, with one man joining the Draper-ites for a lap while the other two stayed for variable reps. Each bootcamper got in a total of 4 laps and a ton of reps, then bid farewell to the Birthday Boy and moseyed up to the playground for a Mini Murph Sesh – which consisted of x3 rounds of x5 Pullups + x10 Merkins + x15 Squats. Mosey BTTF.

COT:

• Counterama # 3
• Namerama
• Announcerama (see Below)

A loungy fun time was had by all. No STD’s were harmed in the making of this intimate gathering. Happy Birthday Don Draper!!! 43 has never looked so young and manscaped. Yours AYE! ~DTH

A sunny and 70 cold morning at Beattie Weaver went something like this:

THANG

Slaughter Start – 10 burpees oyo

Mosey around school for COP: SSHs, DQs, Imperial Squat Walkers, Bob & Weaves, Ukranian Soldiers, Box Cutters, Pixie Sticks, Tempo Merkins

Mosey to benches in front of school for Triple Check: Step-Ups, Dips, Run to light and back

Stay at front loop for Bearimeter: Partner up, Bear Crawl or Run to bear crawl around parking lot islands as a group of 2. Repeato as lunges.

Run loop around school and back to virtual shovel flag.

Merkin Ring of Fire

Quick COT and Last Call took us out.

Naked Moleskin:

Not sure where Deep Dish and Salt Lick went on their first trip to the Lights during the Triple Check….thought they got lost in Powhatan County

Thanks for letting me lead!

Warm up with ten side straddle hops, ten good mornings and ten Don Qs. Then ten sets of burpees alternating with moseys and other exercises. Mosey up the hill for a Q Tip on resilience. At 90 burpees, transitioned to Chumba womba burpees for a total of 107. Marys finishing with a run. COT: prayers for resilience, for helping out those with food insecurity, and for taking the high road.

The puns of F3. Party of 1 arrived at the AO in hopes of seeing some familiar faces but without another sole in sight and no one to toss the potato to, YHC took off to the hills to stay warm. Couple loops around various cul-de-sacs and the high school logged three miles, returned for some 100 rep exercises – merkins, LBCs, squats (sorry DTH, YHC passed on the burpees). With icicles forming on the beard, the towel was thrown after exactly 45 minutes.

5 HIM braved the frigid temps for a House Party Q. Here’s what went down.

Mosey to the bottom of Twin Team for the disclaimer and a few exercises to get us warm.

SSH’s, Helicopters, Ukrainian soldiers, Copperhead Squats, Deadman Hang, and Cherry pickers

Mosey to the top of Twin Team to finish up the Warmarama, which consisted of Merkins, Flutter Kicks, and a few stretches to get us loose.

Mosey back down Twin Team, though the trail, and make a right toward JRHS. The road in front of JRHS is lined with no parking signs every 10 or 15 yards so YHC thought we would do a new F3RVA favorite, 1,2,3 at each sign. 1 burpee, 2 WWII’s, and 3 Merkins.

After about 8 or 10 signs, YHC noticed an extra large parking lot which looked great for a 4 corners.

Exercises were 10 Hand Release Merkins, 20 Jump Squats, 30 WWII’s, and 40 SSH’s.

After we finished the 4 corners we jumped back into doing the 1,2,3’s until we reached the road leading back to Bettie Weaver.

After a Mosey back to the school we stopped for various exercies on the benches. Each exercise was timed for 1 minute.

Exercises were Step Ups, Dips, Merkins, and Heels to Heaven.

Mosey back to the flag with a little over a minute to spare for some LBC’s and Merkins to finish us off.

Numbers, Names, YHC took us out

Nice work today Fellas! We covered a lot of ground and put in a lot of reps. Shout out to Senor Frog for introducing YHC to 1,2,3. It was mentioned that this may not have been a Lounge approved workout but we made it through.

Prayers for DK’s neighbor who experienced a loss in the family.

Thanks for letting me lead today
