The time has come for YHC to conduct his Virgin Q and the newest AO within The Fort: Pantheon. Knowing the history and tradition of what the Site Q has implemented (burpees), YHC ensured that it would continue. Though before heading off, YHC did a quick disclaimer, welcomed a FNG and did a brief discussion about the word “Addiction” so that the PAX could dwell on it as we worked out.

The Thang:
Mossy to back parking lot for a quick COP.
Mossy to playground, split into 3 groups:
Group 1 – 15 swingset abs
Group 2 – 20 squats
Group 3 – 20 dips
Rinse and Repeat 3xs

Head back to back parking lot:
Group 1 – burpee broad jump between parking lot islands
Group 2 – duck walk between parking lot islands
Group 3 – run a lap around parking lot
Each group rotated once

Lined up at end of parking lot for burpee suicides:
run to island = 2 burpees, run back
run to last light pole = 4 burpees, run back
run to last light pole =6 burpees, run back
run to island = 8 burpees, run back

a quick 10 count, rinse and repeat. YHC realized after that the parking lot wasn’t the best location, but the pain was implemented.

Mossy to other playground – hoping for some apparatus for pull-ups, but the school didn’t build anything!!! What is a school playground without monkey bars??

Audibled: wall sits for 30 count, 20 merkins (on some really nice cushioned playground flooring); rinse and repeat.

Mossy to front of school, oh wait, YHC noticed the stairs in the back of the school, so PAX had to run all the way to the bottom and back up, crowd pleaser.

Mossy to front of school for some Ab Lab, then finished it off with a sprint to the end of the parking lot and back (Rumor had it that CSPAN lead the sprint and waited for Gears at the curb before returning back).

COT. As always an honor to Q. YHC wanted to ensure we all got a great workout before YHC left for a 2 week vacation to Wyoming/South Dakota. But leading up to the Q, YHC felt the need to speak from the heart about how important F3 has been to him and others. YHC noted that Addiction is normally referenced as a dangerous word, but it can also be viewed positively. F3 is an addiction, a positive one, where PAX always help out others, encourage others, push others. We don’t just wake up to post to post, we are addicted to posting with our PAX for #accountability & #HIM. What F3 has done for YHC is control his possible addiction to beer. If it wasn’t for F3, YHC would more than likely enjoy a few more beers than needed; but knowing that YHC doesn’t want to be the 6 everytime and prove to himself to be a #HIM, he knows not to drink in excess/or not at all. The past 2.5 years has been a blessing to know that addiction can be viewed as a positive as long as it is to better oneself and to better his surrounding PAX.

There were also a number of prayers said, Royales niece, TC resident who recently had brain surgery, Flat Tire’s M, and Who Dat’s son. May we all know to call upon HIM for help and guidance.
