Yup, you read correctly. I almost had to ride solo because Moby is such a great man. With an expresso crisis on hand, he couldn’t leave Vicki with the mess that he created. An expresso explosion caused him to be tardy to the party.
I warmed up with some ssh, torso twists, grass grabbers, warrior pose and arm circles. Since it was just me, I figured it was a great time to add some miles to the Unitards runcajunrun total. A few laps around the top of the parking garage, and then I began my decent when Moby pulled into the garage. Moseyed back up to pick him up and we did a modified run through downtown Covington. We stopped a total of 15 times to do 10 Merkins and 15 squats. A total of 2.1 miles, 150 merkins and 225 squats. I did the math so not to hurt Russo or Franks brain. YHC prayed us out.

ALMOST SOLO BECAUSE OF AN EXPRESSO CRISIS – from Jose10k

Can anyone count? – from Jose10k
It was a wet, dreary morning at the A1C. YHC was happy to see BBQ drive up the ramp. It’s been awhile since he posted, and he always brings the energy. Moby arrived next, then Hogsbreathe was the caboose. Mumble chatter was all about the Kansas City Chiefs, bad officiating, super bowl possibilities, celebration possibilities, etc…
After the warm-up, I brought out the deck of death and assigned each person a suit.
They got their pick of exercise: we had merkins, burpees, al gore thorogoods, californian sun bathers, poop scoopers, and various others. Some on your own, other in cadence. That’s where things got interesting: some people, not naming any names, couldn’t count properly. Not once or twice, but several times by several individuals. Throw in some laps and stair masters, and it was 6:00. COT, remember about the CRAZY IVAN tonight gentlemen. Moby prayed us out. Thanks for coming out gentlemen, always an honor to workout with y’all. You push me to be better. -
Cottoneye Joe with a deck of death with PAULY D!!!! – from Jose10k
Alright Gentlemen, another wild beatdown at the A1C. Warm-ups: SSH, followed by a burpee, SSH, followed by 2 burpees. A little prequel to a musical introduction that will follow. Some more stretches, all ic.
Cotton Eye Joe time: The song plays while the PAX does SSH, everytime the words Cotton Eye Joe is sung, you do a burpee. (25 in total by my calculations).
After that, we did the deck of death with a twist. Each person was assigned a suit, and each time their suit came up, they picked the exercise. We did everything from burpees, 8 count body builders, to merkins, diamond merkins, fingertip merkins, staggered merkins, yuri merkins, slow squats, lunges, side lunges, jane fondas, hello dollys, lbcs, big boys, freak nastys, etc..
The two jokers: lap around the parking garage with sprints on the straight aways to finish off the deck. COT with a FNG. Now Bushwacker texted me last night to speak of the high standards of naming FNG’s, and the importance of giving them the right, appropriate name. David, Hogsbreathe’s friend, from Slidell needed an appropriate name. He was a fellow New Jersian. “D”avid who went to the shore, so I immediately thought of Pauly D from the Jersey Shore. Once I uttered the name, Hammer exclaimed it as well. If the two of us came up with the same name, then it was meant to be. So welcome to F3, “D”avid, or now known as Pauly D.
If you get a chance gentlemen, please consider donating $43 dollars to Shooter to our fallen brother Cardinal. All that information is on slack. If you need help, just reach out to one of us for the info. Feb 3 is the Crazy Ivan where my nephew looks to repeat as grand champion, and the northshore looks to hold onto the freedom hammer. You don’t have to be a runner, there are ruckers too.
Thank y’all for the opportunity to lead this morning. Y’all have a great Friday, and a great weekend. As always, SYITG brothers. -
The dynamic duo! – from Jose10k
There are undoubtedly some amazing duos in history: Marlin and Dory from Finding Nemo.
SpongeBob and Patrick, Rick and Morty, Shrek and Donkey, Troy and Abed, Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar, Thelma & Louise, Bonnie and Clyde, Han Solo & Chewbacca , Batman and Robin, Mario and Luigi, C-3PO and R2-D2, Bert and Ernie, and Tom and Jerry. However, none can compare to how famous the duo of Jose10K and Moby are at the a1C. Okay, maybe not famous, perhaps notorious.
Here’s the Thang: Due to a beatdown at the gipper, young Moby needed some extra stretching to get going this morning. We did some epic Yoga to start everything off.
The Thang: 4 corners.
7 Merkins at each corner, 14 freak nasties, 21 copperhead squats, 28 lunges.
We ended it with some more deep stretches.
COT, and I prayed us out.
Always great conversations moby! -
Black Friday shopping – from Jose10k
Okay, I’ll be honest, between Einsteins skater workout on Wednesday and the Turkey Trot yesterday, yhc legs were at bit jello. So our Black Friday shopping spree involved mostly upper body. Following a nice warm up of various stretches and exercises, we lined up for our Friday deals. First, we brought the coupons to add to the money saving opportunities. We had alternate merkins, rows, and curls for those customers waiting in line, while shopper 1 made a loop around the store in whatever fashion they choose. Most picked a light jog around, some skipped, back peddled, sprinted, and when I say some, I mean just hogs breath. 4 rounds of that, fireman carry your coupon back to the gipper, followed by a slow walk back to the top. Cot, Hog prayed us out. Syitg gentlemen!

If it hadn’t been for Cotton-Eye Joe I’d been married long time ago Where did you come from, where did you go? Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe? – from Jose10k
6 crazy HIM braved the cold weather this morning to join for a wacky 90s inspired musical. I reached out to the Mandvillians, and they didn’t disappoint. We even were blessed by a wonderer from Slidell. Warm-ups: SSH, self love, grass grabbers, cherry pickers, torso twists, hello jacks hello jills, and high knees all IC TEN count.
The thang: First song: Cotton Eye Joe as promised. A very Hammer inspired workout to this song. SSH during the song while doing a burpee every time Cotton Eye Joe was mentioned. After that was done, switched the music to a little classic rock, to do a little modified dora. Partner 1 back pedaled halfway across the parking garage, the ran the rest to the other side. Back pedaled half way again, then ran back to the starting point. Then partner two did the same. Each partner had to complete 100 crunches and 200 squats. They got to tag team to do 300 merkins. We circled up to do 10 minutes of Mary, round robin style. Each person called out their own exercise. The music included Aqua’s “Barbie girl”, Haddaway’s “What is Love”. A great selection of 90s classic music. COT and Hammer led us out in prayer. Thank y’all for letting me lead on this chilly morning. I am better because of my brothers. SYITG

The Future’s So Bright: I gotta wear shades – from Jose10k
3 Brave souls braved the cool morning air to gather at the top of the parking garage. Moby and myself were engaged in mild conversation when loud music came blaring up the ramp. It was none other than BBQ, rocking an old classic. Fifty thou a year’ll buy a lot of beer
Things are going great, and they’re only getting better
I’m doing alright, getting good grades
The future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades
I gotta wear shades.
The beatdown was simple: Tabata: Round Robin Style. 45 seconds of an exercise of that person choice, 15 seconds break.
COT, Moby prayed us out. Short, sweet, and to the point gentlemen -
Fair Day – from Jose10k
It was a simple beatdown on my day off. We did a nice warm up that including ssh, grass grabbers, self love, arm circles, high knees, imperial walkers.
We went to the rock garden to get some coupons because you can’t ride the rides at the fair without your coupon. We did shoulder presses, curls, 45 degree chest presses, and kettlebell swings. 3 rounds of 20 reps of each. A little bit of moseying with another history lesson about downtown Covington. At the fair there are animals, so some duck walks, bear crawls,and monkey humpers. Back to the top of the parking garage for some four corners, 7 merkins at each corner, then 14 at each. Then 21 squats at each, then 28. Moby prayed us out. -
Moseying with Moby – from Jose10k
Beautiful morning, beautiful sunrise, and perfect weather for a little beatdown. After a quick warmup, Moby and I decided to mosey around down town Covington. We stopped at the Rock Garden for some 30 for 30. Curls, squats, shoulder presses. 15 IC, two rounds. Then to the Gipper for some freak Nastys, leg raises, crunches, jane fondas, and calf raises. Some more moseying with a great history lesson of Covington. Moby has some great historical facts about downtown Covington, the water holes and prostitute homes were quite a lesson. Back to the top after two calf raises on each step. Once up at the top, 4 corners of 20 merkins each. Circled up and did 20 more merkins for an even 100, finished off with 3 minutes of stretches. COT, turkey trot is out there to sign up gentlemen. IPC tomorrow. Moby prayed us out. Thanks for letting me lead again. SYITG
