So, time had come for the boys from the Fort to take the lead in the exploding Winnsboro Expansion. After having a strong presence (albeit completely unrecognized in local media…)at the initial launch, this was our first return trip to lead the way in bringing the pain. After a trip full of harassment at the hands of Apache and Tatanka for the timing of this Q corresponding perfectly with my beach trip (thank you F3 Uber), YHC (Chaser) was ready to get down to it.

Soon, the parking lot filled up and it was time for the fun. CSPAN began with a very nice warm-up including his patented all-too-long plank series and then spoke about the importance of F3 and the growth and fellowship that stems from the 1st F. YHC was up next and in keeping with my MO, this would be an active rest beatdown. At any point, if you are waiting for the 6, you are going SSH, mountain climbers or LBCs. Here’s how it worked out:

Here’s the THANG:
1) 5 Burpees OYO;
2) Mosey to baseball field – 15 Mahktar Ninjis, 15 Mahktar KNEEjis;
3) Mosey to the Baptist Church (stealth mode) – Clockwork Orange (2 hours), 20 squats;
4) Mosey to 1st Methodist – Lunge Walk up parking hill;
5) Mosey to Courthouse steps with a quick stop at one of the many American flags in Winnsboro for a CSPAN led Pledge of Allegiance…continue the mosey and then here comes the fun:

STEPS WORK:

These beautiful rounded steps served as the playing field for the following (10 minutes straight – no stops):

1) First 4 minutes AMRAP – take a lap, 10 merkins, 10 diamond merkins, 10 wide-arm merkins (“Mucho Chesto”)

2) 2 Minutes AMRAP – take a lap, 20 Squats

3) 2 Minutes AMRAP – take a lap, 20 dips

4) 2 minutes AMRAP – Repeat Mucho Chest series.

Good mumble (albeit pretty breathless) chatter at this point and the Pax encouraging each other to push through it. There was a glorious sweat line up and down the steps by the end.

Heading Back:

1) Mosey to another church (don’t know the name) – sidewinder up and down the steps, 2x reverse bearcrawl up the steps;

2) Mosey back to 1st Methodist – 20 Mahktar Ninjis, 20 Mahktar Kneejis;

3) Mosey up the big hill – at the top, SSH until we bring the 6 home (strong effort at this point by FNG-Recall to keep the Merlot contained);

4) Mosey back to baseball field with a full Pax circle around to pick up the 6 – 10 burpees OYO;

5) Mosey back to the Winnsboro Grinder for some ab work and a good stretching plank series.

COT led by CSPAN with prayers and praises lifted up and announcements made. Great BOM and a buncha spent Pax.

Truly an honor to share the Q once again with CSPAN and to help lead these Winnsboro guys. The way this thing has taken off here is proof of the fact that F3 was desperately needed in this town. Every single man that comes out will be better, his family will be better, his faith will be better and Winnsboro will be better for these men. Great work and CSPAN and I are always open to an invite back to do it again. Thank you for the honor.
