Nothing like great weather and great Pax for a VQ. This one was particularly exciting for me because Snooki and I both started our F3 journey at the Deep on the same day. So I was very excited to be able to be a part of his VQ.

7 Pax completed a 4-mile pre-run and joined the other 6 Pax in the parking to start the festivities. Snooki gave the disclaimer, along with a warning for Dark Helmet, “I’m gonna go hard on you.” So that happened. Then we were off.

We moseyed over to the track and circled up on the football field for the warmup, which included:

• SSH x25
• Imperial Walkers x15
• Windmill x10
• Merkins x10
• Squats x10

The Thang

With us good and warm it was time to get started. We moseyed over to the far goal post for some Dora 1-2-3. Pax paired up and performed 100 Merkins, 200 Squats and 300 LBCs while their partner ran suicides stopping at the 10, 30 and 50 yard line. Snooki came out swinging for his VQ.

When finished Snooki, allowed a quick 10 count before moving onto the next thing. (The VQ-drenaline was strong)

We moseyed over to the track where Snooki had setup 4 cones stations along the track. The Pax were to complete 4 laps (1-mile) around the track stopping at each station and performing the exercise. Unfortunately I do not remember all the stations, however the list of horribles included:

• Burpees
• Flutter Kicks
• Merkins
• CDD
• Kraken Burpees (Crowd Pleaser)

With all that done and almost 3 miles in the books, Snooki passed it over to YHC for the remaining 15 minutes. I gave a quick Switzer on Col. William Reeder Jr, a Vietnam POW, in order to allow the Pax to recover.

From there we moseyed to the goal post in the end zone for a CSPAN special, Cover and Move. I had the Pax pair up and move as a pair. With one partner down, the other partner would move a few steps ahead then get down, allowing the other partner to get up and move a few steps ahead and so on and so on. We did this across the whole football field.

For added fun and because we had some extra time, we rinsed and repeated back across the field. While YHC wanted to go for a third, we were out of time and had to return to COT.

T-Claps to Snooki on his VQ. Gave the Pax all they could handle. Also,great to see some new faces at the Deep. This AO continues to grow and with Pax leading like Snooki the future is bright.

Also, thanks to Bolt, Mainframe and Dark Helmet for making the trip to support Snooki.

Until next time, back to the hunt…
