Early Modification at the Milestone Marsh – from Akbar

Date:2021-08-16
QIC:Akbar
PAX:Milestone Marsh, F3 Northshore, Akbar, Hammer, Hogsbreath, Waterpik, Yellow Snow (FNG)

5 HIM showed up in the gloom this morning to get better. Including a FNG named Jay. For a hot minute, we thought it would be 3 Jays at the beatdown. Then Hogs and Pik joined us.

Gloom Factor: Cooler than usual, clear skies

Warm Up: Mission, Core Principles, SSH x20, IW x20, self-love x10, grass grabbers x10.

THANG: Mosey around the block stopping at every 3rd light pole for 5 reps of said exercise, then adding reps ascending to 25, then descend every 3 back to 0 before starting next exercise.

Exercises: Sister Mary Catherine’s, Merkins, Squats

That was how it was supposed to go, but QIC modified very early after heavy breathing and legs burning by all – and took out the descending part to save for another time.

We moseyed to the lakefront and up Noah’s Ark back to the Flag – picking up Edward again along the way for a block or 2 before he rode off into the night.

Basketball court: Suicides. 10 SMC’s, 10 Merkins, 10 Squats, 10 LBC’s. Work back doing same thing to the beginning.

Mary – Leg raises and hands to heels x 10 each.

Our FNG was a little wobbly and worn out, so we all stayed on the six for COT. Hammer prayed us out.

WELCOME YELLOW SNOW!

Thanks for letting me lead – Akbar

Good weather, great mosey and tough workout today. Jay showed up after reading an article on F3. Grew up in Metairie, went to Rummell, went to Destin, FL after Katrina and opened some restaurants. Moved to Yellowstone and ended up in Montana for a while before coming back to Mandeville to be with his 95-year-old mom. EH goes to F3 Nation, glad to have him out.

While moseying back to the flag, we passed Edward’s house. Waterpik and YHC were talking about the strange occurrence last week and wondered how we was. Then he came out of his house and worked out with us again. We saw a dead snake and had multiple conversations about our own snake experiences. Hogsbreath peered up at the sky at one stop and gave us a lesson on stars. Pointing out Orion, which means colder weather is coming. Hope he’s right.
