  • The Assumption of Mary – from Charmin

    For those who didn’t know, today is the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

    That being said, there were three Ruckers and 1 Runner. YHC is Assuming that everyone is saving their energy for tomorrow’s Q v Q beatdown!

  • The Early Bird – from War Eagle

    Charmin made me write this.

    The idea was simple—early workout conducive for those who have early carpool for their 2.0s.

    We came to La Salle, warmed up, lift some coupons, ran some, and prayed around a flag at the end.

    Grateful for the PAX that encouraged this madness. Come join us next Tuesday.

  • Who’s your Partner – from Charmin

    Slow-vagodas x 10
    Grass Grabbers x 10
    Low Slow Squats x 10

    Arms:
    Forward x 10
    Backwards x 10
    T-clap x 10

    The Thang:

    Pax were instructed to find a partner.

    Heading towards the playground, there must always be one person running forward and one person KnOTing. Up to the pax to figure it out.

    Along the way, the PAX were required to take a detour since the Jefferson Parish Park Department decided to start doing some construction work last week and didn’t clean up their mess.

    As a recovery, YHC exhorted to the PAX the importance of circling back for your partner, even if they seem to be going backwards.

    When we get to the playground making sure to instruct pax on hanging leg raises instead of pull ups, set up as usual expect for two people. Doing wheel barrels where one person shoulder shrugs the other’s legs. Timer is 20 shrugs.

    Two rounds of that, and we Get back to warmup pad traveling same way but completing the loop, and thus avoiding the construction.

    Stopping at JPAX to face away from the police station for 10 IC Monkey Humpers.

    Mary:

    Partner leg swings
    Penguins
    Bolt-Lead Protractors
    Appreciators

    COT

    Focused on us being there for our partner, being considerate and gracious when we think they are going backwards, and to be thankful when they circle back for us.

    P.S. YHC wants to thank all the LaSalle regulars (non-F3) for pointing out that YHC left his phone at the playground and for leaving it there.

  • No Downrangers – from Charmin

    Much to everyone’s chagrin, there were no Downrangers, however there were 5 ruckers and 3 runners for a total of 8 pax who beat the battle of 15 degrees and made it out.

  • Hey MacGyver, does HC=Home Catnapping!? – from Bolt

    4.5 got after S&M + 6.5 ran (Charmin was the .5 x 2) = 11 got better in the gloom.…except MacGyver; apparently he redefined “HC.”

    Expand our circle through EHing and Kotters. Who haven’t u called lately that you should…?

  • “A Bottle of Kaopectate” and HYDRATE! – from Bolt

    While we were minis Scrum fixture, Space Cowboy, due to kidney stones (hydrate!), Madoff, after prodding by Charmin, returned to the gloom for the first time in about two months. It was super muggy and I’m pretty sure the pax were already soaked before we even started the warm-up, which of course included the bolt warm-up theme song. Frac’s favorite line would prove to be almost predictive as Madoff pushed through the restart button that comes with being a Kotter. Luckily, he did not actually splash Merlot, but certainly felt like he was headed there.

    Warmorama:
    Hip Circles (clockwise) x 5 (in cadence)
    Hip Circles (counterclockwise) x 5 (in cadence)
    Abe SLOWgodas x 10 (in cadence)
    Open/close the gate each side x 10
    Tie Fighters x 15 each way
    Good mornings x 10
    Abe Vigodas x 10 (in cadence)

    YHC is so appreciative of the role that F3 has been in my life for just over 2 years now. It has helped me grow, not just physically, but mentally and as a leader. YCH cannot express the value that has been added to my life through this group of men who get up early and workout. It was a pleasure toto kick off the third decade leading the Pax through a beatdown for the Ages.
